Many people consider aesthetic medicine abroad. In Latvia, aesthetic medicine clinics offer a wide range of treatments for both men and women.
Gone are the days when we had to endure numerous medical conditions and cosmetic defects without any hope of either treating those conditions or of being able to cure them. Today, fortunately, using the very latest aesthetic medicine equipment, it is possible to fully rectify flaws, which were once considered to be untreatable.
What is aesthetic medicine?
Aesthetic medicine is a range of manipulations and procedures related to the beauty and health of the skin and the body. Speaking broadly, aesthetic medicine focuses on improving an individual’s cosmetic appearance (sometimes also for medical purposes) by treating conditions. These conditions include hair loss, gynecological issues, and scarring. Many aesthetic medicine treatments might be considered to be much more beneficial than treatments offered in beauty salons, while being far less intrusive than many traditional cosmetic surgeries.
Aesthetic laser dermatology clinics in Latvia offer a great number of procedures to visiting foreign medical tourists. These procedures are not only often much more affordable than in Western Europe but are delivered by highly experienced medical experts using the very latest state of the art aesthetic medicine equipment.
What aesthetic medicine procedures are available in Latvia?
Here is a selection of aesthetic medicine procedures that foreign visitors to Latvia can take advantage of. These aesthetic medicine procedures listed below focus on the body.
Icoone Laser procedures

The Icoone Laser is unique in that it uses two heads simultaneously for symmetrical massaging. The result is improved blood circulation and lymph flow. Working at the cellular level, the laser activates the production of collagen and elastin. This procedure breaks down fat and creates active lymphatic drainage, which removes toxins from the body and reduces cellulite. Furthermore, it removes swelling, improves microcirculation, and tones the skin and muscles.

Tricopigmentation of the scalp in men
More than 80 percent of men suffer significant hair loss during their lifetime. For some men, it can destroy their self confidence. Tricopigmentation is helping improve the lives of millions of men all over the world. During the process of pigmentation, color is injected into the upper layer of the skin by micro puncturing. Each dot replicates an individual hair follicle and, in turn, creates the illusion of a clean shaven head. This technology can create the effect of thick hair in places.
How much does this procedure cost?
Prices start at €600. Covering the whole scalp is €1200-1500.
