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…
- You feel your face has lost firmness or volume
- Your skin looks thinner or more tired than before
- You prefer a gradual improvement that doesn't look like filler
- You want a result that lasts over time
- You're interested in improving skin quality on an area of your body
We assess you first if…
- You need an immediate change because you have an event coming up
- You're pregnant or breastfeeding
- There's an active infection in the area or you have an uncontrolled autoimmune disease
- You tend to form keloid scars: we'll review this with you during your consultation
Before you decide
The questions we hear most, answered straight.
- Is the application painful?
- You'll feel pricks and some pressure. When needed, we use local anesthesia so the procedure is tolerable.
- How long does Sculptra last?
- The effect can last up to two years. It varies with your age, your skin type and your habits, for example how much sun you get.
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.

Follow-up visit
We review the result with you and adjust the plan if needed.
What it is and how it works
Sculptra
Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid biostimulator, a body-compatible material that is reabsorbed over time. We place it in the deep layers, and from there it stimulates your skin to make its own collagen. Volume and firmness don't appear the same day: they improve over the following weeks and months, and the effect can last up to two years.
It's a good choice if you notice loss of firmness or volume, or thinner or tired-looking skin, and you prefer a gradual change no one will recognize as filler. It can also improve skin quality on areas of the body. It's not for an upcoming event, and we don't use it during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with infection in the area or with uncontrolled autoimmune disease; we review any tendency to keloids beforehand.
Each session takes 30 to 45 minutes, and 1 to 3 sessions is typical. You continue with your routine, with light aftercare and the massage instructions we give you. Pricing starts at $2.500.000 and includes a follow-up visit.

Your session
Step by step
Here's how your treatment goes, from the consultation to the follow-up visit.
- 01
Medical consultation with facial analyzer
We assess your skin's volume, sagging and quality, and decide with you whether Sculptra is right for you, in which areas and how many sessions.
Medical consultation before treatment
- 02
Sculptra biostimulator application
After cleansing the area and applying local anesthesia if needed, we place the product in the deep layers using a fanning technique or micro-deposits.
30 to 45 min
- 03
Massage, follow-up visits and progress
We show you how to do the massages over the following days and schedule your follow-up visit. Collagen forms gradually, and the change builds over weeks and months.

Less is more
We want you to look like yourself, at your best. These are the criteria we follow in every session.

- 01
Recommended based on medical judgment
Not every skin type or area is a candidate for Sculptra. If we see during your consultation that another option suits you better, we'll tell you.
- 02
Proper reconstitution and dilution
We prepare the product well in advance and place it in the correct layer, which helps reduce the risk of nodules.
- 03
Clear expectations from your first visit
We explain that the effect comes gradually and that the number of sessions depends on your skin's condition when you start.
- 04
Follow-up visits between sessions
Before each new application, we check how your skin has responded, with Dr. Daniela Díez as our medical director.

What's normal and what to expect
It is normal to experience redness, swelling, sensitivity, localized pain, a feeling of pressure, small bruises, or slightly firm areas during the days following the procedure.
Results develop gradually and depend on the product used, the treatment area, skin quality, degree of skin laxity, and each patient's individual response. Multiple sessions may be required.
We look forward to seeing you at your follow-up appointment, as recommended by your physician, to evaluate your progress and determine the continuation of your treatment.

How much does Sculptra cost?
At the clinic, Sculptra biostimulation, facial or body, starts at $2.500.000. We decide how many sessions you need during your consultation based on your skin.
How soon do Sculptra results show?
The change is gradual: your skin forms new collagen over the following weeks, and the improvement is most noticeable between the second and third month.
How long does Sculptra last?
The effect can last up to two years. It varies with your age, your skin type and your habits, for example how much sun you get.
Is the application painful?
You'll feel pricks and some pressure. When needed, we use local anesthesia so the procedure is tolerable.
What side effects can it cause?
A few days of swelling, redness, tenderness or mild bruising are expected. Proper technique and the recommended massages reduce the risk of nodules.
Are Sculptra and hyaluronic acid the same thing?
No. Hyaluronic acid adds volume immediately, while Sculptra prompts your skin to make its own collagen, so the change is gradual. In some cases they're combined.
Can I combine it with other treatments?
Yes. It can be paired with PDO threads, calcium hydroxylapatite or other skin-quality treatments; we agree on the order and timing with you during your consultation.
Who isn't a candidate for Sculptra?
We don't use it during pregnancy or breastfeeding, if there's an active infection in the area, or with uncontrolled autoimmune diseases. Before recommending it, we review your medical history with you.
