Skinlaser

What Skinlaser does

SkinLaser (legal name Centro Dermatológico SkinLaser) is a privately held dermatology clinic founded in 1996 in São Paulo, Brazil, by Dra. Silvia Kaminsky Jedwab, a UNIFESP-trained dermatologist. The clinic operates five physical units across São Paulo neighborhoods (Anália Franco, Higienópolis, Moema, Morumbi, and Skaminsky) and was a pioneer in the use of laser technology for dermatology in Brazil. It offers clinical, surgical, and aesthetic procedures for skin, hair, and nails, supported by a portfolio of more than 30 treatment technologies including CO2 fractional laser, focused ultrasound, radiofrequency, cryolipolysis, PDO threads, hyaluronic acid fillers, botulinum toxin, and collagen biostimulators.

The business runs a direct-to-consumer model serving individual patients who either pay privately or are covered by major Brazilian health insurance plans (convênios) including Bradesco Saúde, SulAmérica, and Unimed. Patients can schedule appointments via WhatsApp, phone, or the clinic's website, and the clinic also operates the Clube do Laser membership program for personalized treatment journeys. Marketing relies on educational blog content and an active social media presence across Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok.

The founder has authored three books on laser and dermatology technologies and maintains a publication record in both national and international literature, providing thought leadership in the local market. SkinLaser remains privately held with no disclosed external investors, acquisitions, or intercity expansion, operating as an organically grown, founder-led specialty clinic business with a multi-unit São Paulo footprint and a broad clinical-aesthetic service portfolio.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Galderma: Global dermatology-focused pharmaceutical and aesthetics company. Comparable as a global dermatology leader whose product portfolio (aesthetics injectables, skincare) is administered in clinical settings similar to SkinLaser, positioning it as a potential partner or supplier.
• Grupo DASA: Brazil's largest medical diagnostics and integrated healthcare group. Indirectly comparable as a scaled, institutional Brazilian healthcare services platform that increasingly extends into outpatient specialty care.
• Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein: Leading premium Brazilian hospital and outpatient care network based in São Paulo. Comparable through its São Paulo presence and growing outpatient specialty services, including dermatology, though it operates a much broader healthcare portfolio.

Direct peers

• Pró-Corpo Estética: Brazilian aesthetic clinic chain offering body treatments, facial procedures, and laser-based services. Directly comparable to SkinLaser in offering a multi-technology aesthetic and dermatology service portfolio across multiple Brazilian locations.
• Espaçolaser: Brazil's largest laser hair removal clinic chain with hundreds of locations nationwide. Comparable as a Brazilian aesthetic dermatology chain that scaled via multi-unit clinic model and consumer brand-building, though focused narrowly on hair removal.

Regional players

• Laser Fast: Brazilian laser hair removal chain positioning on speed and convenience. Comparable as a Brazilian laser aesthetics brand competing for the same consumer wallet, though narrower in scope than SkinLaser's full dermatology offering.

Others

• Sebbin (Laboratoire Sebbin): Global aesthetics medical device manufacturer. Adjacent supplier providing breast implants and aesthetic devices used in surgical and aesthetic procedures. Relevant ecosystem comparator for inputs into Brazilian dermatology/aesthetics clinics.

Emerging players

• Clínica Pedro Selon: Brazilian dermatology clinic (Itajaí region) offering clinical and aesthetic dermatology with advanced technology. Comparable through a similar combination of medical dermatology and aesthetic laser services, though smaller in scale.
