Sculptra®️ at ElixyKa Clinic: An Expert Approach to Natural Facial Rejuvenation in Brussels
Why choose Sculptra at ElixyKa Clinic?
Skin ageing is a progressive and inevitable process. From the twenties onwards, collagen production decreases, leading to a loss of firmness, elasticity and volume. This phenomenon is aggravated by sun exposure, an unsuitable lifestyle, smoking and rapid weight fluctuations. Gradually, the skin slackens, facial features become more pronounced and the balance of the face changes.
At ElixyKa Clinic, we do not simply correct these signs. Our approach is based on a more advanced vision of aesthetic medicine: stimulating the skin to regenerate itself, rather than merely compensating for losses.
It is within this philosophy that Sculptra finds its place.
How does the Sculptra®️ treatment work?
Sculptra®️ is a non-surgical biostimulating injectable, based on poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer. Unlike conventional injections, it does not create immediate volume.
Its action is progressive: it stimulates the natural production of collagen, allowing the skin’s structure to be restored in depth. The skin gains firmness, density and overall quality, while volumes are redrawn in a subtle and natural way.
Which areas can be treated with Sculptra®️?
Sculptra®️ acts on the overall architecture of the face rather than on an isolated wrinkle. It is particularly indicated for nasolabial folds, marionette lines, chin wrinkles and diffuse volume loss.
At ElixyKa Clinic, the goal is never to transform a face, but to restore its balance. The treatment allows for a global, harmonious improvement that is consistent with the patient’s facial features.
How long do the results with Sculptra®️ last?
Results appear progressively, week by week, as collagen production is relaunched.
The improvement is continuous and the optimal result establishes itself over time. On average, the effects can last up to two years or more, depending on the patient.
This durability depends on several factors: age, skin quality, lifestyle and individual response to treatment.
Is the Sculptra®️ treatment safe?
Sculptra®️ has a well-established safety profile when used under appropriate conditions. Poly-L-lactic acid is biodegradable and gradually resorbed by the body.
Possible side effects
- Redness, bruising or sensitivity at the injection site (generally mild and transient)
- Nodule formation in the event of inadequate technique (rare)
The expertise of the practitioner is therefore decisive.
Who is Sculptra®️ for?
Sculptra®️ is intended for women and men who wish to regain a fresher appearance without altering their facial features.
It is particularly suitable in cases of diffuse volume loss, a gaunt face or progressive skin laxity. It is an ideal option for patients seeking a natural, discreet and progressive result.
At ElixyKa Clinic, we support demanding patients who seek a discreet, progressive result that is perfectly integrated into their face.
How many sessions are required with Sculptra®️?
The protocol is personalised according to each patient.
In practice, it generally involves two to three sessions, spaced a few months apart. This progression allows for controlled collagen stimulation and a harmonious result.
What should you know before your appointment at ElixyKa?
Prior to any treatment, a thorough consultation is carried out to analyse the skin, understand expectations and establish a personalised plan.
It is recommended to avoid blood-thinning medications, such as certain anti-inflammatory drugs like Ibuprofen, as well as alcohol consumption in the 24 hours preceding the session, in order to limit the risk of bruising.
What to do after a Sculptra®️ treatment?
Post-treatment care is an essential step to optimise results. Massaging the treated areas is indispensable: five minutes, five times a day, for five days. This ensures even distribution of the product and limits the risk of nodules.
To avoid (24–48h)
- Intense exercise
- Exposure to heat
- Alcohol consumption
- Make-up
- Excessive manipulation
The massage — rule of 5
- 5 minutes per session

The ElixyKa signature
At ElixyKa Clinic, aesthetic medicine is based on a precise, measured and personalised approach. The goal is not to transform, but to subtly restore the natural balance of the face.
A successful result is not one that is immediately noticed, but one that improves the face without ever betraying its identity.
