Active ingredients penetrate deep into the skin — without a single needle. Dermadrop TDA® can be used as a skin booster or as a top-up treatment following any procedure.
Hyaluronic acid, peptides and vitamins, delivered deep into the lower layers of the epidermis using pure oxygen. No pain, no redness, no downtime.
This treatment is for you if …
Dermadrop TDA® is the simplest solution if you’re looking for hydration, a healthy glow or recovery — no needles, no irritation, and no need to take time out from your daily routine.
You’ve just had an intensive treatment — Vivace®, BioRePeel®, IPL or Volnewmer® — and want to ensure your skin barrier receives the best possible nourishment from active ingredients during the same session.
Your skin feels dry, dull or stressed — and the creams you have at home just aren’t cutting it anymore.
You want to avoid needles — whether out of caution, because you’re unsure, or because you want to ease yourself gently into medical cosmetics.
You have sensitive skin or skin prone to rosacea — and need a treatment containing active ingredients that won’t irritate your skin.
You’ve got an important event coming up in the next few days — a wedding, a photoshoot, a date, a performance — and you want to look fresh without taking any risks.
You carry out regular maintenance between more extensive treatments such as Volnewmer® or Vivace® — Dermadrop visibly maintains your skin’s condition in the meantime.
What Dermadrop TDA® treats.
Seven areas of application in which Dermadrop TDA® is most commonly used at alestetics® — usually as part of a broader treatment plan, and occasionally on its own.
Dehydrated, parched skin
Tightness, a sallow complexion, make-up settling into fine lines — hyaluronic acid is delivered into the deeper layers of the epidermis using pressurised oxygen, rather than simply being applied to the surface.
Supplement following intensive treatment
Immediately after a Vivace®, BioRePeel®, PRX-T33®, IPL or Volnewmer® treatment — the skin’s barrier is temporarily more receptive, and that is precisely when we deliver active ingredients deep into the skin.
Sensitive & reactive skin
If traditional skin boosters involving needles are too much for you, or if your skin reacts to any stimulation with redness, Dermadrop works without causing any mechanical damage.
Pre-event glow
1 to 3 days before your wedding, photo shoot or important event. Make-up looks noticeably better on plump, hydrated skin — without the risk of redness.
Dull, lacklustre skin
If your skin looks dull, stressed and lacking in radiance, peptides and vitamins can restore your complexion without the need for any preparation or recovery time.
Fine lines caused by dryness
Fine lines caused by a lack of moisture — typically on the cheeks, around the eyes and on the neck. Deep hydration visibly plumps them up.
Maintenance between treatments
Alternate between Volnewmer®, Vivace® and HydraFacial™ treatments — every 4 to 6 weeks to maintain consistent skin quality.
What Dermadrop TDA® is.
Dermadrop TDA® is a needle-free infusion of active ingredients developed by the German company Meddrop BioMedical Technologies, based in Hamburg — a non-invasive procedure that delivers hyaluronic acid, peptides and vitamins, combined with pure oxygen, deep into the skin’s layers.
What sets Dermadrop apart from traditional active ingredient treatments is the TDA technology (Transdermal Application) — a patented system that opens the skin barrier for a few seconds without damaging it. Pure oxygen delivers the active ingredients deep into the skin in a controlled manner — completely painless, no needles, no micro-injuries. One of the few treatments we use even on sensitive skin, for rosacea, or just before important events.
For us, Dermadrop is more than just a glow treatment. We combine the Meddrop device with individually selected active ingredient cartridges — tailored to your skin type, how you’re feeling on the day, and the treatment we’re combining Dermadrop with in the same session. Often the finishing touch in a wider plan, occasionally also on its own before events or for maintenance.

Three reasons why Dermadrop TDA® has become a staple in our practice.
At alestetics®, Dermadrop isn’t just a „nice-to-have" — it’s the step we incorporate into most of our treatments based on our experience. There are three clear reasons for this.
It helps to restore the skin's barrier after intensive treatments.
According to Vivace®, BioRePeel® or IPL the skin barrier is temporarily weakened — and that is precisely what makes it so receptive. By using Dermadrop immediately afterwards in the same session, we deliver hyaluronic acid, peptides and vitamins into the skin at precisely the moment when they can have the deepest effect. The skin regenerates more effectively, and the active ingredients take effect sooner. In our experience, this is the most important reason why we combine Dermadrop so frequently.
It’s the solution for skin that reacts to everything.
If the skin sensitive ...is prone to redness or has found traditional mesotherapy too intense — Dermadrop works without causing any mechanical damage, without needles and without applying pressure. For clients undergoing an active ingredient treatment for the first time, it is often the only approach that works.
It makes your skin look radiant straight away — without any risk before those important days.
1 to 3 days before Wedding, Photo shoot or Date — Dermadrop is one of the few active ingredient treatments we can wholeheartedly recommend before an event. No redness, no irritation, no need to wait for your skin to settle down. You’ll be ready to go out and about straight after the session.
Rarely on its own. This is how we incorporate Dermadrop TDA® into your skincare routine.
At alestetics®, Dermadrop is usually the final step — the active ingredient and recovery stage that we incorporate immediately after more intensive treatments. Just as Dermalux™ LED is a standard part of every facial treatment, Dermadrop is the ideal follow-up for us after intensive sessions.

An introduction to medical cosmetics
If needles aren't an option (yet) — a gentle first step.
Glow & Maintenance — Dermadrop TDA® in your Skin Quality Plan.
Free AURA 3D skin analysis + plan
Main treatment (e.g. IPL or Vivace®) + Dermadrop in the same session
HydraFacial™ + Dermadrop solo as a maintenance treatment
Repeat the main treatment + Dermadrop
Dermadrop every 4–6 weeks, either in combination with other treatments or on its own
The personalised plan is created during the free AURA 3D skin analysis — skin type, previous treatments and your goals determine the sequence and frequency of the treatments.
This is how your session will work.
Skin assessment and choice of active ingredients.
A brief consultation to discuss your skin type, current skin condition and your goals. Based on this, we select the right combination of active ingredients — hyaluronic acid for hydration, peptides for firmness, and vitamins for a tired complexion. For first-time clients, we recommend the free AURA 3D skin analysis beforehand to create a personalised plan.
Oxygen pressure instead of a needle.
You lie back and relax whilst your skin is cleansed and prepared. We then gently glide the Dermadrop handpiece over your skin — all you’ll feel is a cool, precise stream of air. No stinging, no burning, no pressure. This is followed by a personalised mask, Dermalux™ LED phototherapy and SPF 50.
Instant glow. No downtime.
You’ll leave the clinic with visibly plump, hydrated skin — no redness, no tightness. You can wear make-up again on the same day. For long-lasting results, we recommend a session every 4 to 6 weeks — either on its own or as part of a combination treatment.
Book your Dermadrop TDA® session at Zurich Main Station.
45 to 60 minutes. Instant radiance. No downtime. Ideal as a follow-up to a more intensive treatment — or on its own before special occasions and as a maintenance treatment. And if you’d like some advice first, the AURA 3D skin analysis is completely free.

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."
