Sculptra services offered in Columbia, MD

At Dermatology and Advanced Skin Care in Columbia, MD, patients are being offered one of the best treatments to stop and reverse the aging process of their faces with Sculptra. Dr. Dean Kane, a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon has been using Sculptra for over 15 years. Sculptra is not a filler, but injections used to stimulate collagen and elastin in the face, neck, hands, arms, legs and buttocks. Collagen and elastin give us the natural plumping of the skin. As we age, we tend to lose collagen and elastin, and the skin begins to become lax and thin. The older one gets the more we lose the collagen, and the more wrinkles and skin laxity appears. With Sculptra you can stop the aging process and reverse the skin laxity by making the skin thicker and firmer and tighter.

Sculptra gives a very natural and gradual result that by the end of the year you look younger and more refreshed. Dr. Kane suggests that patients should have yearly injections of Sculptra to maintain the stimulation of their collagen and elastin. In essence Sculptra helps you to “age backwards”! For his facelift patients, Dr. Kane highly recommends Sculptra to maintain the surgical effects of their facelift. Dr. Kane’s wife, Lauri Kane calls Sculptra her true fountain of youth. Lauri has been using Sculptra over the past 12 years. At 70 years old she doesn’t look any older than she did at 58.
