One Point Six Aesthetics in Santa Cruz offers microneedling, chemical peels, and laser treatments, including the Alma Harmony IPL, to stimulate collagen production and rejuvenate skin. With expert care and science-backed treatments, clients can restore skin elasticity and maintain a radiant, youthful appearance.

Sculptra: The Ultimate Collagen-Stimulating Filler for Natural Rejuvenation

Sculptra at One Point Six Aesthetics offers a natural, long-lasting solution for facial rejuvenation by stimulating collagen production rather than providing immediate volume like traditional fillers. Made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), Sculptra gradually restores lost facial volume, smooths wrinkles, and enhances skin texture with results lasting over two years. Unlike hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, which offer temporary plumpness, Sculptra promotes deep, sustained skin renewal.
