Centre Laser International de la Peau-Paris

What Centre Laser International de la Peau-Paris does

Centre Laser International de la Peau-Paris (CLIPP) is a Paris-based private medical-aesthetic dermatology practice founded in 2009 by Dr Jean-Michel Mazer. Operating from a single flagship clinic in the 7th arrondissement (85 avenue de la Bourdonnais), the centre serves individual patients—both French and international—seeking medical dermatological treatments (acne, vascular lesions, port-wine stains, post-radiotherapy radiodermatitis) and aesthetic procedures (hair removal, tattoo removal, body contouring, skin rejuvenation, intimate health, hyperhidrosis). The practice is physician-only: every procedure is performed or supervised by a qualified dermatologist, aesthetic physician, surgeon, or angiologist, with a mandatory €70 pre-treatment medical consultation.

The centre's core asset is its technology platform, comprising 24+ medical devices spanning laser, radiofrequency, ultrasound, cryolipolysis, and microwave modalities—all CE-marked and FDA-cleared. Notable first-in-Europe or first-in-France adoptions include CoolSculpting (2009), PicoSure picosecond laser (2014), Cellfina (2016, with CLIPP as the national reference and training centre), Potenza RF microneedling (2022), AviClear 1726nm acne laser (February 2024), and UltraClear cold fiber laser (April 2026). This device diversity enables physicians to design synergistic, patient-specific protocols rather than relying on a single technology, with documented outcomes including 96% Cellfina satisfaction at two years and a 50% reduction in tattoo removal duration with PicoSure.

CLIPP operates a fee-for-service professional-services model with no franchises, satellites, or external investment. Pricing is set per session after consultation: Ulthera HIFU at €500–€2,800 TTC, tattoo removal at €90–€600, and other procedures similarly customised. The centre operates six days a week, accommodates seven languages, and is privately owned by its physician partners under a French SAS structure (CENTRE LASER INTERNATIONAL DE LA PEAU DE PARIS). All physicians are signatories to the Société Française des Lasers en Dermatologie (SFLD) ethical charter, reinforcing a medical-first positioning against non-physician aesthetic providers.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Cadogan Clinic: London-based doctor-led clinic delivering medical and aesthetic dermatology treatments, including laser and energy-based procedures by named consultant dermatologists and plastic surgeons. Comparable physician-only model with strong brand and a similar premium-positioned London/Paris dermatology anchor.
• The Cosmetic Skin Clinic: UK-based doctor-led medical aesthetic clinic offering lasers, body contouring, and skin rejuvenation, with flagship locations in London and Buckinghamshire. Direct competitor to CLIPP in the European premium laser dermatology segment, with comparable doctor-delivered protocols and physician-led marketing.
• Milan Laser: US chain of dedicated laser hair removal clinics operating under a physician medical director with standardized protocols across sites. Directly comparable in operating layer—the laser clinic model—but distributed across geographies, while CLIPP concentrates on one premium site.
• Clinic Lémanic: Swiss medical-aesthetic clinic in Lausanne offering laser, energy-based devices and physician-led dermatology with a similar comprehensive, multi-device platform model and direct-to-consumer aesthetic medicine positioning. Closest European analogue in terms of technology breadth and physician-only execution.

Emerging players

• Skin Laundry: US aesthetics company building a chain of laser facial clinics with rapid-treatment, technology-led positioning. Overlaps with CLIPP on laser skin rejuvenation but more focused on facials and accessibility at lower price points; partially overlapping segment.
• Ever/Body: US-based modern medical aesthetics clinic offering lasers, injectables and skin treatments under medical direction, designed as a digitally native, consumer-brand aesthetic. Comparable physician-led model with technology emphasis; overlaps on laser services but with a younger, digitally-forward brand position.

Regional players

• SEV Laser: US-based clinic chain specializing in laser hair removal and skin treatments, with comparable physician protocol structure on a smaller multi-location footprint. Comparable service mix on laser hair removal; regional to the US and not competing in Paris.

Broad incumbents

• Ideal Image: North America's largest network of medical aesthetic clinics, with medical directors overseeing laser hair removal, body contouring and skin rejuvenation at scale. Comparable services and laser-led protocols; contrasts with CLIPP via multi-site scale versus single-site depth.
• Thérapie Clinic: Ireland/UK-founded chain operating medical aesthetic clinics across the UK, Ireland and internationally, offering laser hair removal, skin and injectable treatments at scale. Broader and more distributed than CLIPP but operates in the same laser-aesthetic clinic category with physician oversight.
• LaserAway: US leader in laser hair removal and aesthetic skin treatments with a chain-of-clinics model under medical direction, focused on consumer-facing laser services. Operates in CLIPP's core laser hair removal and skin rejuvenation categories at much larger scale.
