Before you decide
Is it right for you?
We tell you frankly when this treatment is a good option and when we'd rather assess you first.
Ideal if…
- Besides dark spots, you have enlarged pores or uneven texture
- Acne left you with dark or slightly depressed marks
- You want to improve your skin quality as a whole
- A package plan works better for you than individual sessions
- You can protect yourself from the sun throughout the treatment
We assess you first if…
- You have herpes, an infection, or inflamed active acne in the area
- You're pregnant or breastfeeding
- You tend to form keloid scars: we need to assess this first
- You're planning intense sun exposure in the following weeks
Before you decide
The questions we hear most, answered straight.
- Does it hurt?
- We apply topical anesthetic before starting. During the session you feel vibration and mild discomfort, a bit more over bony areas like the forehead and nose. Almost everyone finds it tolerable, and you can ask for breaks whenever you want.
- How long do the results last?
- With good care, the improvement in texture usually lasts. Dark spots can come back with sun, heat, or hormonal changes; that's why daily sunscreen and the maintenance we recommend are important.
- Is there recovery time or side effects?
- The usual effect is redness for 1 to 3 days, similar to a mild sunburn; your skin is sensitive and may peel slightly and finely. Breakouts, small dots, or dark spots rarely appear; that's why we give you precise instructions.
How we do it at Quantum
A medical protocol, not a catalog
Every plan starts with a consultation: we listen to what you want to achieve, review your medical history and decide whether this treatment is right for you.
- 01
Medical consultation
Before any treatment is applied, we review your case and explain what is possible and what isn't.
- 02
D10 Facial Scanner
Everything starts with a consultation, not a catalog: we analyze your skin and scalp before recommending any treatment.
- 03
Follow-up visit
We review the result with you and adjust the plan if needed.
What it is and how it works
Microneedling with depigmenting agents
Microneedling opens tiny, controlled channels in the skin. That small injury kick-starts natural repair and collagen formation, which helps with enlarged pores, texture, and mild scars. We use those same channels so the depigmenting agents penetrate better and act on dark spots.
It's for people who have dark spots plus visible pores, uneven texture, or dark or slightly depressed acne marks, and want to improve their skin as a whole. You need to protect yourself from the sun during the plan. We postpone it with inflamed acne, herpes, or infection, or during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and we assess carefully if there's a tendency to form keloids.
Each session takes 45 to 60 minutes and leaves redness that usually lasts 1 to 3 days. Improvement builds over weeks, since the skin takes time to form collagen and turn over pigment. The package starts at $1.000.000, and during your consultation we explain how many sessions it includes for you.
- 01Collagen stimulation
- 02Finer pores and texture
- 03More even tone
- 04Short recovery
Your session
Step by step
Here's how your treatment goes, from the consultation to the follow-up visit.
- 01
Consultation with a facial analyzer
We review dark spots, pores, and texture with the facial analyzer, talk about your routine and how much sun you get, and organize the package around your skin.
Medical consultation before starting
- 02
Microneedling with depigmenting ingredients
After cleansing and disinfecting your skin and applying topical anesthetic, we perform microneedling at the depth each area requires and apply the depigmenting ingredients.
45 to 60 min
- 03
Follow-up between sessions
At each appointment, we see how your skin is responding and how your dark spots and texture are changing; we adjust the intensity until you finish the package and leave you with maintenance instructions.
Check-in at every session
Safety and natural results
Less is more
We want you to look like yourself, at your best. These are the criteria we follow in every session.
Original products registered with INVIMA
- 01
Sterile, disposable materials
At every session we use new, single-use cartridges on previously disinfected skin.
- 02
Depth by area
The depth is adapted to the treatment goal and to each area of the face.
- 03
Pigment control
If your skin tends to develop pigmentation, we moderate the intensity so we don't trigger more pigment.
- 04
Sunscreen is part of the plan
Your instructions include sunscreen and some skincare habits, since without sun protection the pigment can darken again.

How much does it cost?
The package starts at $1.000.000. It covers the medical consultation beforehand, each microneedling session in the package, the depigmenting ingredients, and your aftercare guidelines. When we assess you, we explain how we'll organize it for your skin.
Does it hurt?
We apply topical anesthetic before starting. During the session you feel vibration and mild discomfort, a bit more over bony areas like the forehead and nose. Almost everyone finds it tolerable, and you can ask for breaks whenever you want.
How many sessions does the package include?
It's determined at your consultation, based on your dark spots, your skin texture, and how your skin responds. Sessions are usually spaced several weeks apart so your skin can recover and produce collagen.
How soon will I see results?
Within a few days, your skin usually looks more radiant. Dark spots, pores, and texture improve gradually throughout the package, because building collagen and renewing pigment are processes that take weeks to become visible.
How long do the results last?
With good care, the improvement in texture usually lasts. Dark spots can come back with sun, heat, or hormonal changes; that's why daily sunscreen and the maintenance we recommend are important.
Is there recovery time or side effects?
The usual effect is redness for 1 to 3 days, similar to a mild sunburn; your skin is sensitive and may peel slightly and finely. Breakouts, small dots, or dark spots rarely appear; that's why we give you precise instructions.
Who shouldn't have it?
We rule it out during pregnancy or breastfeeding and when there's herpes, infection, or inflamed active acne in the area. If you tend to form keloid scars or develop pigmentation easily, we assess you more carefully before proposing the plan.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Depending on the type of pigment, it can be part of a dark spot plan together with Cosmelan or the mesotherapy dark spot treatment. When we assess you, we set the sequence and timing so your skin doesn't become overly sensitized.
