What Is Sculptra and How Does It Work? Dr. Raghad Eid Explains

When it comes to injectables, most people think of instant volume, quick fixes, and fast results. But for Dr. Raghad Eid at Silkor UAE, there’s one treatment that stands out from the rest—not because it’s fast, but because it’s smart, versatile, and incredibly natural: Sculptra.

We sat down with Dr. Raghad to get the scoop on her favorite treatment, and while she was quick to say that every patient is different, she didn’t hesitate to call Sculptra her number-one choice.

“It doesn’t really work that way,” she laughed. “But I’d say Sculptra is my favorite.”

So why does this unique injectable earn such a special place in Dr. Raghad’s toolkit? Let’s break it down.

What Makes Sculptra Different from the Rest?

In a world filled with dermal fillers, skin boosters, and wrinkle relaxers, Sculptra is a bit of a wildcard. And that’s exactly why Dr. Raghad calls it her “joker.”

“I can use it in so many different ways. Technically, I can use it like a filler if I want to—though I rarely do. But it also helps with lifting, rejuvenation, skin texture, scars, and even large pores.”

It’s not just about replacing volume. It’s about stimulating your own collagen—meaning your skin actually works to restore itself over time. That’s a game-changer.

What Kind of Results Can You Expect?

Here’s where it gets interesting. If you’re looking for overnight results, Sculptra might not be your match. But if you’re someone who wants a gradual, natural transformation that lasts for years—not months—this treatment is a quiet powerhouse.

“The results are really good. They just take time. I always tell my patients not to expect to see results before 2 months. Real, visible improvement comes around the 6-month mark—and it depends on each patient and how much they need.”

The upside? Those results can last up to 2 years, and they don’t look “done.” They just look like you—well-rested, lifted, and glowing.

Who’s the Ideal Candidate for Sculptra?

According to Dr. Raghad, it’s not about age or gender—it’s about skin quality and goals.

“I usually recommend it to people with mild sagginess, or those who want to improve their look without using fillers. But honestly, it’s so versatile that I can easily combine it with fillers if needed.”

Sculptra works beautifully for patients looking for subtle enhancement—especially those who want skin quality and firmness over sheer volume.

How Does She Explain the Process to Patients?

Patience is key, and Dr. Raghad is very clear about that.

“I explain that it’s a gradual, long-term treatment. It won’t give you that instant ‘wow’ you get from a filler, but it builds up over time and lasts a lot longer. It’s not for someone who wants a one-week change—it’s for those who want a real, lasting result.”

The Perfect Pairings: What Can You Combine Sculptra With?

If Sculptra is the joker in Dr. Raghad’s deck, she knows exactly how to play it.

“I can combine it with anything—skin boosters, fillers, Botox, even Morpheus8. It depends on the case, but it fits easily into so many treatment plans.”

This adaptability is what makes Sculptra an essential treatment in her practice—it’s not a treatment that works the same for everyone; it’s a foundation that enhances everything around it.

Final Thoughts: A Smart, Subtle Transformation

Sculptra isn’t flashy. It doesn’t give you overnight drama. But it quietly works in the background, building up your collagen and improving your skin from the inside out. For Dr. Raghad, that’s exactly what makes it so powerful.

So if you’re after a refreshed, lifted, naturally youthful look, and you’re ready to commit to a treatment that gives back more than it takes—Sculptra just might be your new favorite too.
