Who is it suitable for?

This treatment is for you if …

Volnewmer® is designed to bring about targeted structural changes in the skin — without microneedling, without a course of treatment lasting months, and without surgery.

You want to tighten loose skin on your stomach or upper arms — without having to undergo a course of treatments lasting months.

You have loose skin on your knees or inner thighs and are looking to firm the skin, not to lose fat.

After your pregnancy, your abdominal wall feels soft — and you want it to feel firm again.

It’s better to invest properly once than half-heartedly ten times — one Volnewmer® session per area, with results lasting 3 to 6 months.

Your body is already in motion — your lymph is flowing, your tissues are supple — and now you want to tone up in specific areas.

Important regarding the order: We never start Volnewmer® on a stiff body. If the lymphatic system and connective tissue are not yet ready, we begin with Icoone® or Endospheres® first — and then incorporate Volnewmer® into the treatment plan.
Not suitable: Volnewmer® is not suitable if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a pacemaker or have sunburnt skin. A tan is fine — as long as your skin isn’t burnt. We’ll discuss which options are suitable for you during your free consultation.

The technology

What Volnewmer® is.

Volnewmer® is an FDA-approved monopolar radiofrequency device manufactured by the Korean company Classys, which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin deep within the skin.

Whilst older RF devices such as Thermage Using short energy pulses and gas cooling, Volnewmer® supplies the energy continuously and cools the skin's surface with water at the same time. This makes the treatment much more comfortable — without anaesthetic cream — with a deeper and more consistent effect on the tissue. One session is usually sufficient; the full effect develops over a period of 3 to 6 months.

AT ALESTETICS®
We introduced Volnewmer® to Switzerland in May 2025 — the first clinic in the country to do so. The device received CE marking in accordance with the MDR that same month. On the global market — in the USA, Brazil and Russia — the device has been in use since 2024.

Indications

What Volnewmer® treats on the body.

Six areas of application in which we most frequently use Volnewmer® — listed in order of frequency in our practice.

01

Loose abdominal skin

After pregnancy, weight loss or due to ageing. Volnewmer® gradually improves skin density over several months — without microneedling and without the need for a course of treatments.

02

Flabby upper arms

The typical „flabby skin" on the back of the upper arm in the triceps area — one of the areas where Volnewmer® is most effective, delivering visible firming results.

03

inner thigh

Thin skin, little connective tissue. Volnewmer® reaches depths here that microneedling or superficial RF devices cannot.

04

Crepey skin on the knees

Wrinkled skin above the knees — a common occurrence from the age of 40 onwards. Visibly firmer and smoother after just one or two sessions.

05

Buttocks — Firmness & Lift

Volnewmer® improves skin quality and firmness, not fat deposits. It can be combined with CLATUU Alpha® if required — provided there is a gap of at least two weeks between treatments.

06

Pre-ageing care

One session a year as a preventative measure — before sagging becomes visible. That is precisely the anti-ageing concept that alestetics® stands for.

What sets us apart

Three ways in which Volnewmer® does things differently here.

It is not the device alone that matters — but when we use it, in what order, and by whom.

Technology

Continuous power, continuous water cooling.

Volnewmer® works with 6.78 MHz monopolar radio frequency and delivers energy continuously — evenly to the upper and lower dermis. Water cooling protects the skin’s surface, Real-time impedance detection adjusts the energy per pulse to suit the skin density. Four different tip sizes — the largest, at 16 cm², is specially designed for larger areas of the body.

Method

First the lymph, then the energy. One session is usually enough.

Before we use Volnewmer®, we stimulate the lymphatic system and relieve tension using Icoone® or Endospheres®. Volnewmer® works best only once the tissue has softened and drainage is established. One session per area is usually sufficient — results build up over 3 to 6 months Maintenance once or twice a year.

Experience

The first clinic in Switzerland to offer Volnewmer® — since May 2025.

We introduced Volnewmer® to Switzerland in May 2025 — as the first clinic in the country. Our team is V-NISSG-certified and trained directly by Classys. 590+ reviews Rated 5.0 stars. Specialising in pre-ageing since 2021.

Combinational logic

Rarely on its own. This is how we incorporate Volnewmer® into the body plan.

Volnewmer® works best when the body is prepared. The lymphatic system must be flowing and the connective tissue must be supple — only then can the radio frequency penetrate deeply and evenly.

Preparation — Compulsory

Beforehand (2–5 weeks)

  • Icoone® Laser Med

    Stimulate lymph flow, break up hardened tissue, soften the tissue. We never start Volnewmer® on a stiff body.

  • Endospheres® Therapy

    A gentler alternative to Icoone® — particularly for sensitive skin or those with vein problems.

  • CLATUU Alpha® (at least 2 weeks in advance)

    When sagging skin and excess fat are both a concern — CLATUU reduces the volume, and Volnewmer® tightens the skin afterwards.

At the meeting

Same meeting

We offer Volnewmer® as a standalone treatment during the session. The device works with such precision and depth that it deserves your full attention — no same-day combination treatments on the body.

Aftercare

After that (by some distance)

  • Icoone® / Endospheres®

    Continue immediately to stimulate lymphatic circulation — this helps to promote collagen production in the weeks following Volnewmer®.

  • BioRePeel® Body

    Exfoliation follows Volnewmer® — to enhance the skin’s quality, texture and radiance on skin that has already been firmed.

  • Vivace® Body (2 weeks apart)

    RF microneedling for fine-tuning skin texture and treating stretch marks — at the earliest 2 weeks after Volnewmer®.

Volnewmer treatment in Zurich: the aesthetic procedure
The procedure

This is how your session will work.

01
Before treatment

First the lymph, then the plan.

During the free body consultation, we’ll check whether your lymphatic system is already functioning and whether your tissue is soft. If not, we’ll start with Icoone® or Endospheres®. We use Volnewmer® in a targeted manner — once your body has been prepared.

02
During the session · approx. 30–60 mins

Cleansing, treatment, soothing care.

The skin is cleansed and prepared with a contact gel. Volnewmer® uses continuous water cooling — you’ll feel warmth and a pulsating sensation. No anaesthetic cream is required. The treatment finishes with a soothing mask or ampoule, depending on the area and the sensitivity of your skin.

03
After the treatment

Immediate results. Builds up over 6 months.

Initial tightening occurs immediately after the session due to collagen contraction. The full effect builds up over 3 to 6 months through neocollagen synthesis. No downtime — you can get straight back to your daily routine. Maintenance once or twice a year.

Frequently asked questions

What you need to know before your treatment.

Eight questions we’re most frequently asked before the first Volnewmer® session — answered honestly.

  • Does Volnewmer® cause any pain when applied to the body?

    Volnewmer® is well tolerated — you’ll feel warmth and a slight pulsing sensation, not a sharp pain. Continuous water cooling protects the skin’s surface whilst the radio frequency works deep down. Unlike older RF devices such as Thermage is no anaesthetic cream required.

  • How many Volnewmer® sessions do I need for my body?

    Usually, that's enough one session per zone. Volnewmer® is not intended for a course of treatments — results develop over 3 to 6 months following a single treatment. In cases of severely sagging skin, a second session after 6 months may be advisable.

    We recommend maintenance once or twice a year, combined with regular lymphatic stimulation using Icoone® or Endospheres®.

  • How long will the downtime last?

    No downtime. You may experience slight redness in the treated area for a few hours. You can resume your normal daily activities straight after the session — but please avoid exercise, saunas and intense heat for 24 hours.

  • When will I see the first results?

    Immediate effect immediately after the session, thanks to collagen contraction — the skin feels firmer. The full effect develops over 3 to 6 months through neocollagen synthesis. Clinical studies show measurable improvements in skin quality after just 4 weeks.

  • How long do the results last?

    The collagen and elastin fibres regenerated by Volnewmer® remain intact — the skin’s quality is maintained for years. What you cannot stop is the natural ageing process, which continues in parallel.

    We recommend 1 to 2 maintenance sessions per year, combined with regular lymphatic stimulation. This ensures that the structure remains stable for years to come.

  • How much does Volnewmer® cost when applied to the body?

    Volnewmer® is priced per treatment — the energy required depends directly on the size of the treatment area and skin density. The following guidelines apply to alestetics®:

    • Small area (knees, décolletage, hands) — approx. 400 shots CHF 1,200 – 1,650
    • Middle zone (upper arms, inner thighs) — approx. 600–800 shots CHF 1,900 – 2,600
    • Large area (Stomach, buttocks, back of the thighs) — approx. 1,000–1,200 shots CHF 2,900 – 3,800

    Additional shots are charged at CHF 5 per shot. You can find the full price list here. We will discuss your personalised plan and price during the free body consultation.

  • When is Volnewmer® not an option?

    Volnewmer® is not possible during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, if you have a pacemaker, active skin infections or herpes in the area, are currently undergoing isotretinoin treatment (wait 6 months after completing treatment), or if you have burnt or broken skin.

    A sun-kissed complexion is fine, as long as you haven’t got a sunburn. If you’re unsure, we’ll discuss this with you individually during your free consultation.

  • What is the difference between Volnewmer® and Thermage?

    Both devices use monopolar radio frequency, but the technology behind them is different.

    Thermage delivers RF energy in short pulses and cools the skin with gas between pulses — most patients need Anaesthetic cream, because there are brief, painful moments between the energy and the cooling.

    Volnewmer® works with continuous energy output and continuous water cooling — The skin’s surface remains cool throughout, whilst the RF energy acts evenly at a deeper level. No anaesthetic cream is required, and heat is distributed more evenly throughout the tissue.

    At alestetics®, we have chosen Volnewmer® because, whilst offering a comparable depth, it is significantly more comfortable for the client — and has a proven track record in clinical trials.
