What The Face of Beauty - Basel does

The Face of Beauty - Basel is a private, founder-owned non-surgical aesthetic medicine practice established in 2015 and operated by Dr. med. med. dent. Christoph Villiger as a division within Dental Practice Villiger (Zahnarztpraxis Villiger). The practice is headquartered at Holbeinstrasse 81 in central Basel, Switzerland, with a team of approximately six staff including the principal practitioner, dental assistants, a prophylactic assistant, a dental hygienist, and an apprentice.

The practice's core offering is a portfolio of injectable aesthetic treatments centered on Botulinum Toxin Type A (using products from Galderma and Allergan including Azzalure, Botox, Vistabel, Dysport, Xeomin, and Bocouture) and hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers (Restylane, Emervel, Juvederm). Treatment indications include dynamic wrinkle reduction (frown lines, forehead lines, crow's feet, chin, mouth corners), volume restoration (Liquid Face Lifting, nasolabial folds, marionette lines), lip augmentation, tear through/dark circle treatment, non-surgical hook nose correction, gummy smile treatment, hyperhidrosis (axillary sweating), and masseter muscle/bruxism treatment. Complementary dental aesthetic services (teeth whitening, veneers, Lumineers) are delivered through the embedded Dental Practice Villiger partnership, enabling a bundled smile-and-face aesthetic proposition.

Revenue is generated on a per-procedure, pay-as-you-go basis with publicly disclosed pricing in Swiss Francs (consultations approximately CHF 200 per 15-30 minutes; Botox indications CHF 250-800; hyaluronic acid fillers CHF 395-495 per mL). The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via a bilingual website (face-beauty-basel.ch), a Facebook page, local search presence, and professional referrals, with multilingual support (German, English, French, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish) targeting international clientele in the Basel tri-border region. Appointments are taken Monday through Friday 08:00-18:30. The business is entirely bootstrapped, with no disclosed funding, external investors, or institutional ownership.
