Before we treat you, we take a close look.
Every facial treatment begins with the AURA 3D skin analysis. We assess what you can’t see in the mirror — and use this to create your personalised plan. With no pressure to buy.
AURA 3D Scan
2 minutes · photorealistic digital twin · measures wrinkles, pigmentation, volume and texture.
Consultation with an expert
60 minutes with a V-NISSG-certified skin quality expert. Routine check-up and product advice.
Your plan
Personalised treatment plan + care advice.
Eleven topics. Clear answers.
We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Here you can see what your skin might be dealing with — and which treatments we use to address it.
Pre-ageing
Prevention is better than cure. It’s wiser to start before the age of 35 than to have to fix things after 50.
Find out more →Sagging skin & loss of contour
Jowls, a softer jawline, sagging cheeks. Can be specifically enhanced.
Find out more →Wrinkles & fine lines
No need for Botox. There are other ways to reach the dermis.
Find out more →Sunspots & PIH
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and an uneven complexion.
Find out more →Acne scars
Ice pick, boxcar, rolling. Treat within the dermis; do not cover.
Find out more →Acne & blemishes
Even at 35, 45 or during the menopause. Different causes, a different approach.
Find out more →Rosacea & redness
Rosacea, telangiectasia, chronic redness. These conditions can be managed.
Find out more →Dehydrated skin
It’s not a skin type, it’s a condition. Water needs to reach the dermis — not just sit on the surface.
Find out more →Dark circles & bags under the eyes
Different causes. Different treatments. Rarely just a lack of sleep.
Find out more →Large pores
Cleaning alone isn't enough. The collagen structure around the pore needs to be rebuilt.
Find out more →Menopause & Hormonal Skin
Oestrogen levels drop, and your skin changes. Medical solutions rather than resignation.
Find out more →Treatments are building blocks. It’s the plan that makes the difference.
We follow a clear sequence of steps: preparation, treatment, and finishing. This ensures that each treatment achieves its full potential — and often more than it would on its own.
We open the door.
Deep cleansing and exfoliation prepare the skin. Dead skin cells are removed, pores are unclogged, and the skin’s barrier is ready for what comes next.
HydraFacial™ · BioRePeel® · PRX-T33®
We work in depth.
The devices stimulate collagen production, build up volume, and treat pigmentation and blood vessels. This is the actual technique behind the treatment.
Volnewmer® · Vivace® · SkinPen® · Stellar M22™ · BTL Exilis® Face
We seal and nourish.
Active ingredients are absorbed into the prepared skin. LED light soothes and accelerates regeneration. This is where the glow you see the next day comes from.
Fillmed NCTF® · PolyPhil™ · Dermadrop TDA® · Dermalux™ LED
Energy first, active ingredient last. Every session follows this principle — because the order determines whether the treatment remains on the surface or reaches the dermis.
Twelve treatments. A carefully curated selection.
Every device and every active ingredient system has a specific role to play. We combine them according to plan — not based on availability.
Volnewmer® RF
Monopolar radiofrequency lifting. Rebuilds collagen and restores volume from within. A core treatment for sagging skin and loss of contour.

Dermalux™ LED
Tri-Wave LED phototherapy (blue, red, near-infrared). Included with every facial treatment — accelerates regeneration.
Find out more →Dermalux™ LED is included in every facial treatment. We decide which wavelengths — blue, red or near-infrared — to use depending on the treatment and skin condition.
What we have deliberately chosen not to include in our concept.
We tested a wide range of technologies before putting together our treatment system. Here’s what we’ve deliberately left out of our range — and how we achieve the same results in a different way.
Morpheus 8
Deep RF treatment using insulated needles. We tested it — and found that our clients need longer recovery periods than our Skin Quality programme allows for.
Vivace® RF Microneedling — patented thinner needles, comparable depth of penetration, a significantly more comfortable experience.
Oxygeneo
Oxygen treatment with CO₂ bubbles – a very pleasant experience. For us, however, the effect is primarily superficial – we are looking for treatments that penetrate the dermis.
HydraFacial™ with Circadia® Booster and Dermadrop TDA® for the injection of active ingredients to a depth of 3.5 mm.
LPG Endermologie
Vacuum roller massage, a purely mechanical approach with good drainage effects. We had considered LPG — but opted for a combined technology that offers more than just a mechanical approach.
Icoone® Laser Med — microstimulation, diode laser and LED in a single session. Three effects in one treatment.
We offer fewer treatments — but each one has its place in the system.

What our customers say
„Aleksandra was very professional, warm and friendly. She gave me excellent advice on what I needed, even though I’d booked a completely different treatment. All the risks and considerations were clearly explained, and I never felt like I was being pressured into anything. A great consultation… I’ve found my new go-to place for treatments.'
„A huge thank you to Alex for her advice. Her expertise and her calm, professional manner won me over straight away. She takes her time, tailors her advice to individual needs and gives fantastic tips for a home skincare routine. It’s exactly the kind of consultation you’d hope for – knowledgeable, warm and genuine."
„I really appreciate that there’s no pressure to buy extra services or products – just genuine, high-quality care. After nearly a year of visiting Alestetics, I’ve had nothing but positive experiences. Alex has been professional, kind and attentive throughout my visits. I highly recommend them!"
„I love coming here; it always feels like I’m going to a spa. They don’t try to sell me anything and are very open about what the treatments can (and cannot) do for me. They take health and wellbeing very seriously and always make sure I know how to look after myself outside the clinic as well."
„Alex is amazing! She listens to what the customer needs and explains the process. She is very knowledgeable and also makes recommendations. For me, her fluency in English is extremely helpful when we communicate."
„I had a Vivace treatment combined with PRX-T33. The appointment went smoothly; the staff were very professional and efficient. The clinic is close to HB and centrally located. Alexandra was very nice and friendly. I’ll definitely be coming back!"
„I had RF microneedling and EXILIS treatments on my stomach at Alestetics and am extremely pleased with the results. In fact, the results are much more noticeable than I had expected. Katia is highly professional, very attentive and incredibly warm. I highly recommend her!"
„I spent a long time looking for the right salon for me and I’m absolutely delighted that I chose alestetics®. The salon is beautiful, and everything is spotlessly clean and hygienic. Thanks to the team’s caring, friendly and professional manner, I felt very comfortable and safe throughout the entire treatment."
„I’ve been to Alestetics several times now. Before the treatment, they carried out an Aura skin analysis, during which they explained my skin condition to me in great detail — it was incredibly professional and transparent. Katia, Antonia and Alex are incredibly caring, knowledgeable and professional. You never feel like 'just another customer'."
„Today I had my first laser treatment (4 areas) with Katia and I felt completely at ease. She was particularly sensitive to my needs, as I can be a bit sensitive to pain at times. Her friendly manner made the treatment a really pleasant experience!"
„Katia is simply brilliant at her job! I’ve now had my third laser treatment. As I’m quite sensitive to pain, I really appreciate the fact that Katia always distracts me with a friendly chat. I feel very well looked after."
„I had a wonderful experience at the aesthetics clinic with Katia. She took the time to listen to my concerns, explained everything clearly, and made sure I felt confident throughout. I would highly recommend Katia for high-quality and truly personalised treatment."
„Review of the BTL Exilis treatment. I’m an active man and work out regularly, but despite my best efforts, I couldn’t get rid of that stubborn belly fat. I noticed a difference after just the first treatment. After several sessions, the difference was clearly visible."
„All the treatments here are sensational. This wellness haven truly lives up to its reputation. It’s centrally located — right next to Zurich main station — and the atmosphere at the spa is serene and calm. Every visit to Alestetics is my monthly treat and feels like a mini-break."
„I’ve had several Endospheres treatments at alestetics. Alex and Katia are very professional, but also very friendly and caring. They’ve always taken my needs and wishes into account (avoiding the tummy after pregnancy). I can’t recommend them highly enough!"
„I had five EXILIS treatments with Katia at alestetics®. The service was excellent – Katia is very professional and warm, and explains everything in detail. You feel at ease with her straight away. I’d definitely recommend her!"
„I feel understood, and they're absolutely lovely and professional!!"
„I had an excellent experience with the Icoone treatment. Antonia was simply fantastic – very professional, warm and incredibly friendly. She took plenty of time and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire treatment."
„I visit Alestetics regularly for Hydrafacial and microneedling treatments. The team are really friendly and flexible. The location is perfect, and the studio is clean and comfortable. After three treatments, my skin feels much clearer and my pores are slightly smaller."
„I feel completely at ease with Alex and her team! From the welcome to the treatments, the hygiene and the atmosphere: everything is simply always perfect. I originally came across Alestetics because of their laser treatments, but now I also go there for my facials."
„The treatments at Alestetics have worked wonders on my sensitive skin. With Katia, you’re in absolutely professional hands!"
„I'm absolutely delighted to have found this clinic in Zurich where, after just four sessions, I've seen amazing results! The girl who looks after me, Katia, is so lovely; she put me at ease right from the start and is incredibly professional!"
„My favourite salon in Zh! Top-notch service, lovely welcome tea, friendly staff, helpful consultations, and I left feeling happy and glowing, looking gorgeous after my treatments. Thanks Katia, Alexandra, and the Alestetics team – one love!"
„At first, I was really impressed by the Endospheres therapy. But the Icoone treatment has surpassed everything: it massages the skin gently and painlessly from head to toe. I started the treatments less for firmer skin and more for my health. The team are like best friends to me."
„Very friendly and professional staff, who take the time to carry out a skin analysis and offer valuable advice! I highly recommend it. It was a pleasure to have the AURA 3D skin analysis and to discuss my daily skincare routine."
What you should know before you start.
The most common questions we get from first-time customers — answered honestly.
Where should I start if I’ve never had a medical facial before?
With the AURA 3D Skin Analysis. You book online, come to see us for 60 minutes, we carry out the scan, discuss your goals and draw up a plan. It’s free, with no pressure to buy. Only then do you decide whether you want to go ahead with treatment, and if so, which one.
How many sessions will it take before I see results?
That depends on the treatment and your skincare goals. HydraFacial gives you an instant glow. Vivace, SkinPen and BioRePeel are carried out in courses — usually 3 to 5 sessions for visible structural changes. Volnewmer works after just one session, with cumulative effects becoming apparent after three months.
What is the difference between BioRePeel® and PRX-T33®?
Both are exfoliants that do not cause visible peeling. BioRePeel® contains TCA 35% and combines exfoliation, biostimulation and revitalisation — a well-balanced formula suitable for year-round use.
PRX-T33® goes deeper (TCA 33% combined with hydrogen peroxide) and has a stronger lifting effect, as well as containing kojic acid to target pigmentation. Which one is right for you depends on your goal — for pigmentation or a desired lifting effect, we tend to recommend PRX; for general skin quality, BioRePeel.
What is the difference between SkinPen® and Vivace® RF microneedling?
SkinPen® is an FDA-approved, purely mechanical microneedling treatment — no heat, safe for all skin tones. Ideal for acne scars and darker skin.
Vivace® adds radiofrequency, which enables deeper collagen remodelling and skin tightening. More effective for sagging skin and deeper lines. We’ll determine which device is right for you during the AURA 3D analysis.
Is there any downtime?
It depends on the treatment. HydraFacial, Dermadrop, BioRePeel and PRX-T33 have no downtime at all — you can get straight back to your daily routine. Vivace and SkinPen cause mild redness for one to three days. Stellar M22 IPL usually causes redness for one to two days. Volnewmer and EXILIS Face have no downtime. For combination treatments, we discuss the timeframe in advance.
What if my skin is very sensitive or I have rosacea?
We tailor the treatment to your needs. Dermadrop TDA®, HydraFacial™ Products containing soothing active ingredients and Dermalux LED are our first steps in treating reactive skin. Stellar M22™ IPL is the main treatment for rosacea and couperose — we avoid aggressive exfoliation in this case.
Do I need an AURA 3D analysis before every treatment?
No. The AURA 3D Analysis forms the basis of your personal plan and is reviewed once a year — or whenever there are significant changes. Between sessions, we discuss your progress and adjust the plan accordingly.
How much does a facial cost?
Prices vary depending on the treatment and scope of work. You can find an overview of all current prices on our Prices page. The AURA 3D skin analysis, including consultation and personalised plan, is free of charge — CHF 0.
What makes alestetics® different from other studios in Zurich?
We combine equipment and active ingredients in a carefully planned sequence: preparation, main treatment, finishing touches. We deliberately avoid jumping on every bandwagon — and we won’t recommend a treatment you don’t need.
More planning, less selling.
