FRAIS is an aesthetic clinic in Bratislava focused on non-surgical aesthetic medicine, laser dermatology and skin regeneration. The Institute of Health and Beauty opened in 2008 and operates at Daxnerovo námestie 5. Its aesthetic and dermatology services sit within a wider medical setting led by MUDr. Vanda Przewlocka, PhD., the clinic’s founder, medical and executive director.
For an international patient, the useful starting point is the skin concern rather than the treatment name. Pigmentation, vascular redness, acne scarring, loss of facial volume and skin laxity can look similar in photographs but may require very different approaches.
Start with the skin problem, not the procedure
Aesthetic medicine offers many treatments with overlapping claims. FRAIS combines medical consultation with device-based skin diagnostics, dermatology, injectable treatments and laser procedures.
This matters when the main concern is not simply a wrinkle.
Persistent redness may need dermatological assessment. Pigmentation can require a different plan from acne scarring. Loss of facial volume is a different problem from reduced skin quality or laxity.
FRAIS currently lists device-based skin diagnostics from €50 and a medical aesthetic consultation at €80.
For someone considering an aesthetic clinic in Bratislava from abroad, a useful first question is therefore simple: what is causing the visible change, and which treatment category addresses it most directly?
Laser treatment has several different jobs
FRAIS uses laser and light-based treatments for several skin concerns rather than presenting one laser as a universal solution.
Its current services include IPL, fractional resurfacing, erbium resurfacing and Fotona-based procedures. The clinic also uses laser technology within dermatology for selected vascular and skin concerns.
One of its more distinctive options is 4D photo-rejuvenation. FRAIS describes a treatment pathway combining several approaches to skin stimulation. The clinic also provides Fotona intraoral lifting, which works from inside the mouth in the cheek and lip area as part of facial rejuvenation.
Current published prices include:
- 4D photo-rejuvenation: from €315
- Fotona intraoral lifting: from €315
- IPL: from €50
- Fractional resurfacing: from €150
These procedures do not have the same recovery period or treatment schedule.
Before travelling, ask how many sessions are realistically expected. You should also know how long redness, swelling or skin sensitivity may remain after treatment.
Injectables should answer a specific structural question
FRAIS also provides botulinum toxin treatments, hyaluronic-acid fillers and other injectable aesthetic procedures.
The choice depends on what needs changing.
Dynamic expression lines are different from loss of facial volume. Lip modelling is different from improving skin texture. A filler can add or restore volume, but it does not replace laser or dermatological treatment when the main problem is pigmentation, scarring or vascular redness.
Current published prices include lip modelling from €279 and three-zone botulinum toxin treatment from €280.
MUDr. Vanda Przewlocka, PhD. also participates in professional education for other doctors. FRAIS has hosted physician training covering facial anatomy, hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin application. The clinic has also organised medical training in GOURI application techniques.
For patients comparing an aesthetic clinic in Bratislava, this is more useful than a long list of injectable brand names.
The important decision is whether the goal involves muscle activity, facial volume or skin quality.
Regenerative treatments follow a different logic
FRAIS has increasingly incorporated regenerative aesthetic approaches alongside conventional injectables.
Its current treatment range includes PRP, exosomes, skin boosters, mesotherapy and polynucleotide treatments.
FRAIS describes polynucleotides as a biostimulatory treatment intended to support skin hydration, elasticity and regenerative processes. This approach is different from simply adding facial volume with a conventional filler.
A patient wanting fuller lips or additional cheek projection has a structural volume goal.
Someone mainly concerned about thin, dehydrated or tired-looking skin may be discussing skin quality instead.
Understanding that distinction can help avoid selecting a treatment only because it is currently popular.
Current FRAIS prices include PRP from €200, exosomes from €360 and hyaluronic-acid mesotherapy from €160.
Medical dermatology changes the decision when skin needs diagnosis
One distinctive feature of FRAIS is that aesthetic medicine and dermatology operate within the same institute.
The clinic provides dermatoscopic mole assessment and digital full-body mole screening. Its dermatology services also include assessment or treatment of facial vessels, rosacea and several other skin conditions.
That does not mean every cosmetic concern requires a dermatologist.
It does mean that a suspicious lesion, persistent inflammatory problem or unexplained skin change should not automatically be approached as a routine beauty treatment.
For an international patient, this is an important boundary.
Cosmetic improvement and medical skin diagnosis are different tasks, even when both involve the same area of the face or body.
FRAIS has operated in Bratislava since 2008
The Institute of Health and Beauty FRAIS first opened in 2008.
In its 15-year anniversary publication in 2023, the institute reported that around 20,000 clients from Slovakia and abroad had used its services since opening.
FRAIS was founded by MUDr. Vanda Przewlocka, PhD. and MUDr. Ireneusz Przewlocki, PhD.
Today, MUDr. Vanda Przewlocka is listed as the medical and executive director of FRAIS.
The wider institute includes aesthetic medicine, dermatology, plastic surgery and several other medical specialties. This gives patients access to different medical pathways when a concern does not fit neatly into one aesthetic treatment category.
The clinic is located at Daxnerovo námestie 5 in Bratislava. Current opening hours are Monday to Friday from 08:00 to 20:00.
One treatment session or a treatment course?
This question becomes particularly important for patients travelling to Slovakia.
Some injectable treatments may be performed during one appointment. Other skin treatments may be recommended as a course.
FRAIS, for example, describes repeat treatment schedules for some laser and regenerative procedures. The appropriate interval depends on the treatment and the individual skin condition.
A single visit to Bratislava may therefore make sense for one procedure but not for another.
Before booking travel, ask whether the proposed result is expected from one session or several. If repeated treatment is recommended, establish the interval between appointments.
This can be more important than saving money on the price of one session.
What to compare before choosing an aesthetic clinic in Bratislava
Do not compare two clinics only by the price of one syringe, one laser session or one named treatment.
First identify the main concern:
pigmentation, redness, scars, skin texture, facial volume, expression lines or skin laxity.
Then ask which treatment category is being proposed and why.
A filler should have a different purpose from resurfacing. Botulinum toxin has a different role from a regenerative skin treatment. Dermatological assessment may need to come before either one.
You should also clarify expected downtime.
A short injectable appointment and a resurfacing procedure can have very different aftercare requirements. This becomes especially relevant if you plan to fly home shortly after treatment.
Planning treatment at FRAIS through NewHolidays
When contacting FRAIS through NewHolidays, describe the change you want rather than selecting the largest treatment package in advance.
Clear photographs can help explain the area of concern, but a photograph cannot replace medical assessment. Mention previous fillers, laser procedures, surgery or relevant skin treatment if they affect the area you want assessed.
For injectables, ask what the proposed treatment is intended to change.
For laser or resurfacing, ask about the expected number of sessions and recovery period.
If the concern could be dermatological rather than purely cosmetic, ask whether a dermatology consultation should come first.
The strongest reason to investigate this aesthetic clinic in Bratislava is the ability to compare several treatment pathways within one medical setting: dermatological assessment, laser technology, injectables and regenerative skin treatments.
This makes it easier to start with the problem and then choose the least extensive treatment that reasonably matches it.
