What is Laser Genesis?

This Laser Facial procedure utilizes non-invasive laser technology to safely, naturally and effectively treat fine lines, wrinkles, diffuse redness and scars. You can expect to see consistent results after each treatment. Treatments can be performed in a relaxed, comfortable manner without the use of topical anesthetics or gel.

One of the most exciting aspects of Laser Genesis is its versatility. It can be used on all skin types and tones, making it an excellent option for virtually anyone looking to improve their skin's appearance.

Who is using Laser Genesis?

Laser Genesis has become a popular treatment among celebrities as well. It is a celebrity favorite, and loved by the likes of Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman, Kendall Jenner, Elle Macpherson and the Victoria Secret models. Kendall Jenner attributed Laser Genesis to improving her acne and acne scars and helping her complexion. Angelina Jolie describes it as the "Raindrop Facial" as it feels like warm rain falling on her skin. A lot of people describe it as feeling like the sun on your face while you sunbathe. It is not painful and can be very relaxing.

How does Laser Genesis Work?

The treatment works by gently heating the upper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a protein that is naturally found in the skin and helps to keep it looking youthful and plump. As we age, our bodies produce less collagen, which can lead to wrinkles and sagging skin. Laser Genesis helps to jumpstart collagen production, leading to firmer, smoother, and more radiant skin. Additional heat is generated in dilated capillaries to reduce redness.

What areas can be treated?

Laser Genesis patients report excellent results over their entire faces and necks. Additionally, practitioners may suggest this therapy to diminish recent scars on other parts of the body. ​

What is diffuse redness?

Diffuse redness is a general appearance of facial redness, such as rosy cheeks. This condition is caused by dilated capillaries, resulting in an appearance of general redness, not discrete, well-defined vessels. The most commonly affected areas are the nose, forehead and cheeks. Diffuse redness is often associated with a condition called rosacea and it can be hereditary. Laser Genesis will help your appearance by gently treating and reducing this condition.

What does the procedure feel like? ​

Patients often describe the treatment as relaxing and therapeutic. You will experience a gentle warming of your skin’s surface during the procedure. Angelina Jolie describes it as "The Raindrop Facial" because it feels like warm rain on the skin. You do not need numbing cream or anesthesia because it is not painful. You can immediately return to normal activities, using sunscreen if participating in outdoor activities. 

​What can I expect before the treatment?

​You will not need gel, anesthetic cream or ice prior to treatment. Before the actual Laser Genesis treatment, you will be asked to remove your make-up or moisturizers and, in some cases, you may be asked to shave the area to be treated. Your physician will review and assist with all pre-treatment requirements.

​What kind of improvements can you expect with Laser Genesis skin therapy?

Over the course of six to eight treatments, Laser Genesis can help restore the skin’s youthful glow and appearance. The individual treatment results are subtle, but the overall effect of multiple treatments can be quite dramatic.
