MANILA, Philippines—In a recent launch, Galderma‘s Sculptra®, a revolutionary dermal filler, has finally landed in the Philippines, offering a new solution to those seeking to enhance their natural beauty.
Guests are welcomed by a vibrant hue of pink, evoking a sense of youthful exuberance which Galderma strives for. Beauty enthusiasts and medical professionals were introduced to the innovative product, which promises to stimulate collagen growth and restore facial volume.
During the presentation, Galderma representatives shared the science behind Sculptra®, explaining how it works to gradually replace lost collagen and restore youthful-looking skin over time. Unlike traditional fillers, which provide immediate results but can also appear overdone, Sculptra offers a subtle and natural-looking enhancement that lasts up to two years.

The treatment involves a series of injections that are typically spaced out over several months, with its results that can last up to two years or more, restoring volume and improving contours and folds.
“Filipinos typically start losing collagen as early as mid-30s, our skin starts to show signs of ageing such as wrinkles, sagging and lackluster complexion,” says Dr. Yu Ming Huang, a board-certified dermatologist and adjunct attending physician at the National Taiwan University – Children’s Hospital. “With the launch of Sculptra® in the Philippines, people will have better chances of maintaining a natural youthful look and glow.”
Sculptra is made from a biocompatible material called poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). This unique material has been used in medical devices for decades and is well-known for its safety and effectiveness. With this, Sculptra® can restore skin laxity, volumize aged skin and help revive fullness.
