How does Laser Genesis Work?

Laser Genesis stimulates new skin cell growth and collagen production which smooths fine lines; shrinks pore size; evens out rough skin texture; and fades scarring.  This zero down-time laser procedure also closes down the tiny veins and capillaries that cause persistent redness of the skin. Most of our clients begin to see an improvement in their skin after halfway through their treatment series (after about 3 or 4 treatments).  For optimal results most people need 5-10 treatments.

​

How long do the Results of Laser Genesis last?

Longevity of results are varied from person to person with most people having sustained results for up to 12 months. The duration of results is greatly influenced by your lifestyle, sun exposure, diet, and the use of proper skin care products.  You can greatly extend the results by observing the following:

• Always protect your skin with an SPF 50 broad spectrum sunblock (year around)

• Daily and year around use of a medical grade skin care regimen.

• Not smoking or drinking excessive alcohol

• Eating a healthy balanced diet

• Regular exercise

• Doing a single booster or maintenance treatment every 6 to 12 months

 

Preparing for Your Laser Genesis Appointment

Prior to the Laser Genesis treatment, the skin is thoroughly cleaned. Once the skin is clean and dry can then begin the treatment. We recommend that you come to the office with a clean, make-up free face if possible.

 

Post Treatment Expectations for Laser Genesis

After a Laser Genesis treatment, clients can return to normal activity. There is no down time at all. Some clients may experience a temporary redness, which will dissipate that same day.
