CLINIQUE PASTEUR 

Feeling and looking younger and better The Clinique Pasteur started as a project to gather in one medical practice the best and highest qualified medical professionals along with the most advanced medical techniques in the field of aesthetic care and vascular procedures. In order to do this, founder Dr Jean-Marc Charles traveled all over France to meet the principal actors of this very specific field. TEXT: BCLINIQE PASTEUR  |  PHOTOS: CLINIQE PASTEUR

The Clinique Pasteur is one of the leading centres in Luxembourg that offers a wide range of services to its patients – skin rejuvenation,  facial  rejuvenation,  hair  implants,  body  contouring,  vascular  treatments  and  much  more.  Dr  Charles  says that  he  takes  pride  in  having  gathered around  him  colleagues  that  value  excellence above all – both in the services they provide but also in the equipment they use.  “In our industry you quickly get acquainted with the people who are at the top of their field through medical trainings, congresses and  conferences  we  attend  on  a  regular basis to be at the heart of innovation. It was

technique  available.  For  example,  to  remove excess skin on the lids we will carry out the procedure over three sessions using a new plasma laser – without surgery.”

Breaking the myth This is also why staying hospitalised within the  Clinique  after  an  intervention  is  not necessary for patients. “We want to offer a service that is so good and so gentle that our  clients  can  walk  out  the  same  afternoon.” Dr Charles says that it is important to break the myths surrounding aesthetic care:  “Too  often  we  hear  horror  stories about plastic surgeries gone wrong or people losing their facial expressions. So we
