How is Laser Genesis Different?

This is truly a no downtime treatment to

  • stimulate collagen
  • tighten pores
  • improve acne and redness

Laser Genesis is the perfect laser to do before a last minute event because it plumps the skin (remember? no downtime!). Combine it with an oxygen facial and you're camera ready or event ready immediately.

The only caution? The heat from Laser genesis can trigger melasma, so it might not be suitable for these patients.

How Long Do Laser Genesis Results Last?

The amount of time that Laser Genesis results last varies from patient to patient. However, most patients find that their results last anywhere from 6-12 months before they need a follow-up treatment. The number of treatments needed to get these results will depend on your skin condition before treatment. For most, 4-6 sessions will provide optimal results. For those who want a more dramatic change, 6+ treatments may be necessary.

Is Laser Genesis Painful?

Since Laser Genesis is a non-invasive procedure, it is completely painless. Most patients describe the sensation of warm sunlight touching the skin or being close to a fire. You can expect a relaxing, therapeutic experience.

Is Laser Genesis Permanent?

Laser Genesis is only permanent when treating scars. However, if you have any pigment issues such as rosacea, you will need a follow up treatment at least once per year. Depending on how well you take care of your skin, your results can sometimes last longer than 12 months. 

What Is the Aftercare Process for Laser Genesis?

The aftercare process for Laser Genesis is relatively simple and should not cause any major disruptions to your routine. 

Immediately following your Laser Genesis treatment, you can use a cool compress to alleviate any tingling around the treatment area. Make sure you refrain from using exfoliants or scrubs for at least 48 hours, since these can irritate the treatment area. In addition, you will need to avoid exposing the treatment area to heat, steam, or sweat for 48 hours after your procedure. 

About 3-5 days after your Laser Genesis treatment, any redness or skin sensitivity should subside. Your skin may still be a little dry, but this is normal and can be remedied with a moisturizer recommended by Dr. Fitzgerald. To maintain your results, make sure you wear sunscreen whenever you go outside for extended periods of time.

What Is the Difference Between Laser Genesis and IPL?

The main difference between Laser Genesis and IPL treatments is the technology they use to achieve a more youthful facial appearance.

Intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment uses broad, high intensity pulses of light that penetrate the skin tissue. The light is either absorbed by the blood or the melanin depending on the type of filter used and the skin condition being treated. This light helps damage lesions without harming the surrounding tissue, allowing the body to heal and create a smoother skin appearance.

In contrast, Laser Genesis uses heat to stimulate collagen production in the skin and kill bacteria that causes acne outbreaks. Much like IPL, this treatment is ideal for those who want to treat acne, redness, scars, wrinkles, and fine lines.
