Treatment Overview
LASER TREATMENT IN ZÜRICH
Laser-based anti-aging procedures have established themselves as an essential component of aesthetic medicine. Thanks to advanced technology, today’s laser systems are more precise and safer, making them a popular choice for people looking for minimally invasive and low-risk laser treatments that promise a natural look.
Aesthetic laser therapy offers an effective and gentle alternative for those seeking a significant improvement in their skin structure without surgery. This treatment naturally tightens and firms the tissue by promoting the formation of new collagen and elastin fibers, resulting in a rejuvenated complexion and improved skin quality. Laser therapies involve hardly any risks, are almost painless, and result in minimal downtime.
Our Treatments at a Glance
HOW DOES A TREATMENT WITH
FOTONA 4D® Work?
This four-stage laser treatment is specifically designed to effectively treat the connective tissue of the skin’s upper and middle layers (up to the area around the oral cavity).
Step 1: Lifting – SmoothLifting (intraoral tightening)
Applying the Er:YAG laser inside the oral cavity releases heat in a targeted and controlled manner, stimulating new collagen formation in the cheeks and oral mucosa. This treatment method tightens the skin and builds up volume. Excellent results can be achieved, particularly in the chin, mouth, and nasolabial folds.
Step 2: Rejuvenation
The use of Nd:YAG waves enables the targeted application of small heat pulses, particularly in the deeper layers of the skin. This method is particularly gentle and leaves healthy tissue untouched.
Step 3: Tightening – PIANO
The procedure employs long pulse times with Nd:YAG waves to heat the tissue, effectively stimulating the production of collagen and elastic fibers. This controlled heat application penetrates the deeper skin layers and the subcutaneous fatty tissue, enhancing skin structure and elasticity.
Step 4: Laser peeling – superficial
The laser treatment ends with an Er:YAG laser peel, which uses cold light to remove the top layer of skin, smooth out imperfections, refine pores, and reduce pigmentation spots. This procedure significantly improves the appearance of the skin and contributes to the tightening effect, providing an excellent overall result.
PERMANENT HAIR REDUCTION
HAIR REMOVAL
Permanent hair removal with laser.
Our hair removal using the Fotona laser, also known as laser epilation, is one of the safest and most effective methods for removing unwanted hair. This treatment method suits almost all skin types and can be applied to nearly every body part.
The skin is cooled beforehand to make the laser treatment in the particularly sensitive bikini area as comfortable as possible.
The Fotona Nd:YAG laser treatment at Skin Atelier uses advanced FRAC3® technology for safe and effective permanent hair removal, suitable for all skin types. The system precisely reaches the deepest hair roots without affecting the surrounding tissue and is supported by a contact cooling system for increased comfort. Each laser treatment achieves a hair reduction of 15 to 20 %, whereby several sessions are necessary to ensure permanent removal due to the growth cycles of all hairs. Hair that grows back becomes increasingly finer and lighter.
Unlike the IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) devices commonly used in beauty salons, which work with light of several wavelengths, the laser only uses light of one wavelength. The laser beam targets the hair root’s pigment and permanently deactivates it with heat. Satisfactory results are achieved with professional application and customized sessions.
Computer software integrated into the laser accurately determines the necessary laser energy, considering factors such as skin type, color, and pigmentation. Furthermore, the treatment specialist brings many years of experience to the procedure. In addition, the treating specialist has many years of experience in this field.
NON-SURGICAL REJUVENATION OF THE LIPS
LIPLASE®

You get fuller, smoother lips without needles and downtime.
Would you like fuller, natural-looking lips without using hyaluronic acid or fillers and without the risk of overcorrection?
Fotona LipLase™ could be the ideal solution for you.
This method uses controlled heat application to the tissue to promote the natural production of collagen. The result is an increase in volume and a tightening of the lips. A final lip peeling perfects the treatment result.
This is how LipLase™ works in a very uncomplicated way:
- No recovery time required
- It can be used all year round
- Fast treatment process
- No visible side effects
LipLase™ offers the following advantages:
- Natural lip plumping without the use of fillers
- Highlighting the lip contours
- Reduction of radial lip wrinkles
- Improved skin structure on the upper and lower lip
- Correction of visible irregularities caused by incorrect hyaluronic acid injections
- A refresher treatment is recommended 2 to 3 weeks after the first session for optimum and long-lasting results.
SKIN REJUVENATION WITH IPL TECHNOLOGY
LUMECCA® PHOTOREJUVENATION
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technology revitalizes the skin’s appearance through a method known as light rejuvenation. It is suitable for the face and body. This laser treatment is recommended for people with an active daily routine, as it does not require a recovery period and only carries a minimal risk of adverse effects.
IPL light rejuvenation uses portable devices emitting delicate light pulses in a wide range of visible frequencies. The heat generated by mild light flashes makes this gentle, non-ablative treatment ideal for improving skin areas such as the face, décolleté, neck, and hands, especially if pigmentation spots or redness are present.
This advanced laser technology has a wide range of frequencies. By using specific filters, IPL technology achieves an effectiveness comparable to various laser procedures for effectively treating multiple vascular and pigmentation disorders. Skin aging can also be counteracted by light rejuvenation. IPL systems are characterized by their highly developed, computer-aided precision and simple operation. The laser treatment methods are gentle, lead to gradual improvements, require little downtime, and carry a low risk of unwanted side effects.
Up to 4 sessions may be necessary to achieve visible improvements in the skin, with results varying from person to person. Immediately after application for the treatment of rosacea or pigmentation disorders, slight reddening or swelling of the skin may occur, which may last for a few hours or, in rare cases, a few days. Such reactions are considered indicators of the effectiveness of the treatment.
Following the IPL session, pigmented areas may darken and move to the skin’s surface before being naturally shed within one to two weeks. This change is a sign of the success of the therapy and should not cause any concern. Consistent use of sunscreen for a few days after treatment is recommended to protect and care for the skin.
TREATMENT OF PIGMENT SPOTS
LUMECCA® PIGMENT SPOTS TREATMENT
This advanced laser technology has a wide range of frequencies. By using specific filters, LUMECCA technology achieves an effectiveness comparable to various laser procedures for effectively treating multiple vascular and pigmentation disorders. This can also counteract skin aging. IPL systems are characterized by their highly developed, computer-aided precision and simple operation. The laser treatment methods are gentle, lead to gradual improvements, require little downtime, and carry a low risk of unwanted side effects.
Up to 4 sessions may be necessary to achieve visible improvements in the skin, with results varying from person to person. Immediately after application for the treatment of rosacea or pigmentation disorders, slight reddening or swelling of the skin may occur, which may last for a few hours or, in rare cases, a few days. Such reactions are considered indicators of the effectiveness of the treatment.
In treating vascular conditions such as rosacea or couperose, the oxyhemoglobin in the blood vessel absorbs the light, leading to blood coagulation. This process causes the small vessel to break down into particles, which are then naturally filtered out of the body by the body’s lymphatic system.
During pigment treatment, the affected areas absorb light briefly, which heats them but not long enough to cause burns. This heat development causes the pigment to break down into small fragments. These fragments either come to the surface of the skin and form crusts, which fall off naturally within one to two weeks, or the body’s lymphatic system removes them. You will receive an offer tailored to your needs after a personal consultation, including a clinical assessment.

EYEBROW LIFT WITHOUT SCALPEL
VECTORLIFT®
VectorLift® is a three-stage laser treatment that tightens the upper eyelids, the outer eyebrow area, and the forehead. Overall, it is ideal for lifting the upper part of the face.
The position of the eyebrows is improved, resulting in a more open look and a rejuveated appearance. Lifting the eyebrows also reduces the appearance of drooping eyelids and gives the face a fresher look. By promoting collagen production, the forehead skin is firmed and refined. Irregularities in the eyebrow shape are corrected, resulting in a symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing eyebrow line. The stimulation of collagen production ensures firmer and smoother-looking skin.
The VectorLift® laser treatment is a gentle procedure without surgical intervention or scarring.
It integrates a variety of effects in a single pass.
Depending on the selected treatment intensity, fast treatment sequences make it possible to come and go immediately without long recovery times.
There is no impairment of the volume, as deeper tissue remains unaffected.
With the efficient three-stage program, each stage only takes around 20 minutes.
This treatment can be combined with the SMOOTHEYE® laser treatment.
