HydraFacial™ in Zurich – clean, well-hydrated skin as the foundation of your skin plan
Your skincare is good, but your skin still looks tired, the pores are full, and your makeup doesn’t sit right. HydraFacial™ cleans deeply, hydrates, and gives instant freshness – in about 45 minutes, with no downtime.
alestetics® at Konradstrasse 1 in Zurich (3 minutes from the HB) uses the original HydraFacial™ device. A session lasts about 45 minutes and costs CHF 250, including Dermalux™ light therapy and a head massage.
Good care – and still tired skin?
Many women come to us with exactly this feeling:
You care for your skin, but it looks dull and tired.
The pores are full, and small impurities keep coming back.
After a facial treatment, the skin glows – and a few days later it is all back to how it was.
Honestly: HydraFacial™ is the foundation, not the whole solution.
HydraFacial™ works in four steps with a vortex handpiece: cleansing, gentle exfoliation, pore-clearing, and delivering active ingredients. After that, the skin is clean, hydrated, and ready for whatever comes next.
Good for: Dull, dry skin · full pores · tired complexion · glow before an event · care for healthy skin and between more intensive treatments.
Whether HydraFacial™ alone is enough depends on your skin. If the skin is healthy and the skin barrier intact, the glow can often last for weeks at home with good care – then HydraFacial™ is the ideal treatment every 4–6 weeks. If the barrier is weakened or the skin is reactive, the glow quickly disappears. Then we first strengthen the skin, and HydraFacial™ becomes part of a plan.

We know how frustrating it is when your glow is gone after a few days.

The plan in 3 steps
This is how one good day becomes skin that looks better for good.
Analyse your skin
AURA 3D photographs your skin in 3D. Together we look at what it needs. The analysis is our gift to you for getting started.
Start with HydraFacial™
The skin becomes clean, moisturized and ready for whatever comes next – immediately visible, without downtime.
Follow your plan
In our skin plans, HydraFacial™ is the foundation, combined with treatments for texture, tone, and firmness. We maintain the result every 4–6 weeks.
HydraFacial™ before a wedding, a business event or a Christmas party
Many come to us with a date in their calendar: wedding, team event, Christmas party, photoshoot. HydraFacial™ alone brings visible freshness. Combined with a second treatment on the same day, we get the most out of it – which one depends on how much time is left until the event and what state your skin is in right now.
With only a few days left, we often combine it with Dermadrop TDA®: active ingredients without needles, painless and with no downtime. If you have one to two weeks to spare, Fillmed NCTF® is often a good choice – the skin has time to settle and looks plumper.
With approximately one month of lead time, Vivace® RF-Microneedling is a powerful addition for finer pores and smoother skin. And for those who simply want more beautiful skin in the long term without a fixed date combines HydraFacial™ with LaseMD Ultra™.
These are examples, not a rule. We will determine whether a combination suits your skin during the AURA 3D skin analysis – because no one wants irritated skin before the big day.

„Alex was pleasant to speak with and was able to answer all of my questions about my treatments and future treatments."
„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."
