What Sculptra and Radiesse cost in Bangkok
On 3 November 2026 we looked for the Sculptra and Radiesse prices that Bangkok hospitals and clinics publish on their own websites. Two hospitals publish Sculptra prices: one on its price list (updated March 2026) and its Sculptra page (updated April 2026), the other as a programme on sale through 2026. One clinic publishes Radiesse prices, on pages updated in February and August 2026:
| Product | Published prices |
|---|---|
| Sculptra, one bottle | 35,000 baht at one hospital; 30,000 baht for a 10 cc bottle at the other, down from 36,264 baht. |
| Sculptra, two bottles | 68,000 baht at one hospital; 55,000 baht at the other, down from 67,400 baht. |
| Radiesse | 36,000 baht for 0.8 ml and 69,000 baht for 1.5 ml at the clinic, including the doctor and follow-up. |
The second hospital's price includes the doctor, service and outpatient fees, and is for Thai citizens and foreigners living permanently in Thailand only. It cannot be refunded, and a doctor assesses you first.
On a newer page, updated in August 2026, the clinic gives a starting price of 42,000 baht for Radiesse, without saying how much product. Ask which price applies and for what volume. The clinic says touch-ups can cost extra.
The first hospital also lists Gouri, which the clinic groups with Sculptra and Radiesse as a collagen stimulator, at 17,000 baht for 1 ml and 31,000 baht for 2 ml.
How Sculptra and Radiesse differ
Both are injected to prompt the skin to make new collagen. Sculptra is poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). It is mixed with sterile water and injected under the skin, often in the temples, the cheeks and below the cheekbones. The clinic says it is not a filler: the change builds slowly as collagen forms.
Radiesse is calcium hydroxylapatite in a gel. The clinic says the gel fills straight away and the particles then prompt collagen. It comes in 0.8 ml and 1.5 ml syringes; Radiesse (+) contains lidocaine, a numbing agent. Diluted, it is also used on the neck, the backs of the hands and the upper arms. The clinic does not use it in the lips, under the eyes or on the eyelids, and says it cannot be dissolved the way hyaluronic acid filler can.
The hospital says Sculptra results can last about two years; the clinic says 18 to 24 months. The clinic says Radiesse lasts 18 to 24 months in all, with the filling effect fading after 9 to 12 months, and suggests repeating it every 12 to 18 months.
How many sessions, and the total
Sculptra is a course. The hospital says most people need two or three sessions, 6 to 8 weeks apart, and some one to four. The clinic says two or three sessions 4 to 6 weeks apart, and three or four for more marked problems. Results start to show after two to four weeks and are full at 8 to 12 weeks, the clinic says.
The clinic says Radiesse usually needs one session, sometimes with a top-up two to four weeks later, and one or two sessions a year. It suggests 0.8 to 1.5 ml for a first treatment.
Because Sculptra is priced per bottle, ask how many bottles each session uses and how many sessions you need, and get the total.
The session, and afterwards
For Sculptra, the hospital puts numbing cream on for about 45 minutes and injects through a blunt cannula, then massages the area. Redness, swelling or bruising usually settles within hours to two or three days, though bruising can last up to two weeks. Use a cold compress, avoid heavy exercise and direct sun for 24 hours, and wait four weeks before other treatments on the area. The clinic asks you to massage the area five times a day, for five minutes, for five days, and to avoid saunas, steam, very hot showers and long sun for one to two weeks.
For Radiesse, the clinic says swelling lasts one to five days and is worst on the first two; most people can work, though some take two or three days off. For the first 24 hours, use a cold compress for 10 to 15 minutes every two to three hours, do not touch or massage the area, and sleep with your head raised. For the first week, avoid saunas, steam, hot baths, hard exercise, facials and massage. The area can feel firm for one to two weeks.
Before you book
Tell the doctor about allergies, your medicines and any fillers or treatments on the area. For one to two weeks before, the clinic advises stopping aspirin and similar painkillers, vitamin E, fish oil and ginkgo, but only on your doctor's advice for prescribed medicines.
Both products are not advised during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with an allergy to the product, or with an infection where it would be injected. The hospital also lists people under 18, those on immune-suppressing medicines, with autoimmune conditions, bleeding disorders or blood thinners for Sculptra. The clinic lists blood thinners and severe immune problems for Radiesse, and asks for caution under 21, with keloid scars, or within six months of isotretinoin.
The clinic advises checking that Radiesse has a Thai label with a Thai FDA registration number, a hologram and a serial number, and that the syringe is opened in front of you.
Check who treats you
Only a doctor registered and licensed by the Medical Council of Thailand may practise medicine (Medical Profession Act 1982, section 26). You can check a doctor on the Medical Council's website by searching their first name and surname, in Thai or in English. It lists only licensed doctors. If you find nothing, the Council answers on 02-590-1887.
What to ask before you pay
- Which suits my face better, Sculptra or Radiesse, and why?
- How many bottles or millilitres, how many sessions, and what is the total?
- Does the price apply to me if I do not live in Thailand?
- Can I see the box and syringe opened in front of me?
- What does a touch-up cost?
- Does a doctor inject it, and what is their full name?
