Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) is a collagen-stimulating biostimulator that works differently from traditional dermal fillers. Rather than simply adding immediate volume, PLLA stimulates the body’s own collagen production over time, creating a gradual, natural-looking improvement in volume, skin thickness and structural lift that develops progressively over the weeks following treatment.
The results are long-lasting — typically 2 years or more — making PLLA one of the most effective and cost-efficient treatments for restoring facial volume, improving skin quality and achieving a refreshed, naturally youthful appearance without the need for surgery.
At Skin Rejuvenation Clinic we offer two leading PLLA products: Sculptura and Aesplla. Your practitioner will recommend the most suitable option for your individual goals.
Sculptura (also known as Sculptra) is one of the most established and clinically proven PLLA biostimulators available. It is used to restore lost facial volume, smooth deep folds and creases, and improve overall skin quality — with results that develop gradually and last up to 2 years or more.
Sculptura is particularly effective for treating volume loss in the cheeks, temples, jawline and nasolabial folds, delivering a subtle, natural-looking restoration rather than an overfilled appearance.

Aesplla is a next-generation PLLA biostimulator known for its exceptional skin quality improvements alongside volumising effects. It is formulated with a refined particle size for smoother integration into the tissue, making it particularly well-suited for improving skin texture, elasticity and firmness as well as restoring volume.
Aesplla is an excellent option for clients seeking a more affordable entry point into PLLA treatment, or for those prioritising skin quality improvement alongside a gentle volumising effect.

⏳ Results That Build Over Time — And Last Up to 2 Years
Unlike instant-result fillers, PLLA works progressively. The collagen stimulation process continues for weeks after treatment, with final results visible at 3–6 months. The trade-off is exceptional longevity — results typically last 2 years or more.

1. What is the difference between Sculptura and Aesplla?
Both are PLLA biostimulators that work by stimulating collagen production. Sculptura is a longer-established product particularly suited to significant volume restoration. Aesplla uses a refined formulation that integrates smoothly and is well-suited to skin quality improvement alongside gentle volumising. Your practitioner will recommend the most appropriate option at consultation.
2. How is PLLA different from a dermal filler?
Dermal fillers provide immediate volume by physically filling an area with hyaluronic acid. PLLA works by stimulating your body to produce new collagen — the improvement is gradual and natural-looking, and the results last significantly longer.
3. When will I see results?
You may notice some immediate improvement due to the water content of the product, but this settles within a few days. The real results develop progressively over 3–6 months as new collagen is produced.
4. How long do results last?
Results typically last up to 2 years or more, making PLLA one of the longest-lasting non-surgical treatments available.
5. How many vials will I need?
The number of vials required depends on the degree of volume loss and the areas being treated. This will be assessed and confirmed at your consultation, along with exact pricing.
6. Is it safe?
Yes. Poly-L-Lactic Acid has been used safely in medical applications for decades. It is biocompatible and biodegradable — it is naturally and gradually absorbed by the body over time.
