Stellar M22™
What is Stellar M22™ (Lumenis) – and how does IPL photofacial work?
Imagine waking up and your skin looking so smooth, fresh, and radiant that you feel comfortable even without makeup. This is exactly what our customized Stellar M22™ treatments at alestetics aim alestetics : we combine state-of-the-art technology from Lumenis — IPL Photofacial and, if necessary, the fractional ResurFX laser —to improve several skin issues in a targeted and gentle manner.
The advantage: instead of treating just "one problem," we work on the factors that really determine skin appearance— complexion, texture, pores, redness, pigmentation, and elasticity.
Wrinkles & Skin Tightening
When skin loses elasticity, fine lines become more visible. With a personalized treatment plan, Stellar M22™ can make skin appear smoother and firmer —for a fresher, more rested look.
Scars & skin texture (e.g., acne scars)
Uneven texture, enlarged pores, or acne scars benefit particularly from ResurFX: the skin's surface can appear visibly refined, and the overall complexion more harmonious.
Pigmentation & Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)
Dark spots after inflammation—typical after acne—are called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). With the right indication and safe settings, IPL can help to make the complexion appear more even.
Acne & blemishes
IPL can help with active acne, depending on the condition of the skin: it can soothe inflammation, clear up the complexion and, when used consistently, lay the foundation for fewer "post-acne issues" (e.g. PIH, visible pores).
Redness, rosacea, and couperose
Redness, flushing, or visible veins can greatly affect the appearance of the skin. Depending on the findings and skin type, IPL can help reduce the appearance of redness and make the complexion appear calmer.
Why the combination of IPL + ResurFX is so effective
IPL photofacial primarily targets color irregularities (e.g., redness, pigmentation changes) and can be used to help treat blemishes.
ResurFX (non-ablative, fractional laser resurfacing) focuses more on skin texture —e.g., fine lines, scars, uneven texture.
This allows us to intelligently combine treatment focuses or use only one module in a targeted manner, depending on the skin analysis.

Rosacea & couperose: individually adapted
Our specialists at alestetics will create your personal treatment plan.
Does the IPL or ResurFX treatment hurt?
The IPL treatment is comfortable and gentle. IPL cools the skin, ResurFX works fractionally. You will only feel a slight tingling or warmth – nothing else.
Is there any downtime after the Stellar M22™ treatment at alestetics?
Redness or minimal swelling usually disappears within 1–2 days. You can immediately go back to work, shopping or going out.
Does Stellar M22™ also work against rosacea and acne bacteria?
Yes! At alestetics, IPL specifically combats redness, enlarged blood vessels, inflammation and simultaneously reduces acne bacteria, so that pimples and new breakouts are minimised in the long term.
Is Stellar M22™ suitable for all skin types?
Yes, certainly for skin types I–IV, also for sensitive skin. For darker skin types (V–VI), our experts at alestetics will advise you individually.
Can I use sun or self-tanner after the treatment?
We recommend avoiding direct sun and UV radiation as well as self-tanners directly before and after the treatment in order to achieve the best result. Our specialists at alestetics will give you all the tips for aftercare.

Testimonials
What our clients say
Posted on Uliana ChanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been to Alestetics several times now and can wholeheartedly recommend it. The location right next to Zurich Main Station is extremely convenient, especially if you want to easily fit appointments into your daily routine. The clinic itself is very clean, modern, and at the same time incredibly relaxing—you feel welcome the moment you arrive. I’ve tried various body contouring treatments there: Icoone Laser, Exilis, and Endospheres therapy. Personally, I was most impressed by the Icoone Laser because the treatment is not only effective but also feels very pleasant and relaxing—almost like a deep lymphatic drainage massage. At the same time, I’m seeing truly visible results in cellulite reduction, body firming, and skin quality. My skin looks smoother and firmer, which was the most important thing for me. For my face, I had a HydraFacial and NCTF mesotherapy. Before the treatment, an Aura skin analysis was performed, during which my skin condition was explained to me in great detail—super professional and transparent. After the treatments, my pores are visibly cleaner, and my skin feels hydrated, fresh, and healthy. You can just tell that they work with high-quality technologies and expertise here. What makes Alestetics special Alestetics me is the team: Katia, Antonia, and Alex are incredibly caring, knowledgeable, and professional. You never feel like “just a customer,” but rather truly cared for as an individual. Before and after the treatments, I’m always offered a delicate herbal tea that supports lymphatic flow—details like that make all the difference. The atmosphere is calm, the music very relaxing, and I almost feel at home there every time. I also find the treatment packages very practical: on the one hand, you save money; on the other hand, it’s a commitment for me, so I keep my appointments regularly—which, of course, also leads to better results. In summary: If you’re looking for aesthetic treatments, cellulite treatment, skin tightening, HydraFacial, mesotherapy, or body contouring in Zurich, Alestetics comes highly Alestetics . The results speak for themselves—I always enjoy coming back and have already recommended it to many friends.
Owner’s response
Dear Uliana, thank you so much for this wonderful and detailed feedback! We are thrilled that you feel so comfortable and “right at home” with us at alestetics® in Zurich, right next to the main train station. We are particularly pleased that you highlight the synergy of our top technologies: The combination of the Icoone Laser Med and BTL Exilis is indeed our insider tip for maximum results in body contouring. While the Icoone Laser smooths deep-seated cellulite and activates lymphatic flow through its patented Roboderm technology, the radiofrequency of Exilis provides intensive skin tightening and targeted fat reduction. The fact that you’re already noticing these results so clearly in your skin’s quality confirms our passion for high-quality medical technology. As you correctly point out, regular appointments yield the best results in cellulite reduction—which is why we offer our treatment plans, which are not only financially attractive but also serve as a highly motivating commitment to your personal goals. The fact that you see such clear results in your skin quality after the Aura skin analysis and treatments like Hydrafacial and mesotherapy is the greatest compliment for our team. Katia, Antonia, and Alex were very pleased with your praise. We place great importance on ensuring that every treatment—from the Aura skin analysis to the rejuvenating herbal tea—is a thoroughly professional experience. We look forward to welcoming you back soon! Warm regards, Your alestetics® TeamPosted on Maria SharapovaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you so much to Alex for a wonderful, relaxing, and effective massage.
Owner’s response
Dear Maria, thank you so much for your lovely feedback! ❤️ We’re thrilled that you found your session with Alex so relaxing and effective—that’s exactly what we aim for. Your massage was the Endospheres Therapy (also known as the Endospheres Treatment): a modern, non-invasive body treatment using microvibration and compression. A special treatment head with many small, rotating balls works to deeply stimulate the tissue. This can help support blood circulation and lymphatic flow, firm the tissue, and visibly improve the skin’s appearance—Endospheres is particularly popular for cellulite, water retention, leg circumference, tissue firming, and body contouring. Many clients describe it as a pleasant blend of intense massage and a feel-good treatment. Thank you for taking the time to review us—we look forward to your next appointment at alestetics®! ✨Posted on Kitti PappTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I searched for a long time to find the right salon for me, and I’m overjoyed that I chose alestetics®.❤️ I’ve had the pleasure of receiving treatments from both Alex and Katja on several occasions, and I’m always very satisfied. The salon is beautiful, very well-maintained, and everything is extremely clean and hygienic—an aspect that’s particularly important to me. Today I had my third laser hair removal treatment, and I can already tell that the treatment is working very well. The team is incredibly friendly, warm, and professional; you always feel well taken care of. In addition, the studio uses the most modern and high-quality equipment currently available on the market, which is another important factor that builds my trust. I’d especially like to point out that while such a treatment can feel a bit unfamiliar or slightly uncomfortable for many people—that’s not the case here at all. Thanks to the team’s empathetic, friendly, and professional manner, I felt very comfortable and safe throughout the entire treatment. For all these reasons, I will definitely try other treatments in the future, as I have complete confidence in the team’s expertise and approach, as well as the pleasant, friendly atmosphere. I can truly recommend the studio ❤️🙆♀️

MaurerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had Alestetics microneedling and EXILIS treatments done on my abdomen at Alestetics , and I am extremely satisfied with the results. I mentioned at the beginning that I would be happy with even small changes, but in fact, the results are much more noticeable than I had expected. Katia is highly professional, very attentive, and incredibly warm. The studio also impresses with its excellent location and impeccable cleanliness. The value for money is excellent, especially compared to other studios in the Zurich area. Highly recommended!
