While individual results may vary, optimal results are often seen after 4-6 treatments.

Laser Genesis is a non-invasive laser facial treatment that helps tighten large pores, reduce redness, treat wrinkles, fine lines and scars. This laser treatment promotes collagen production and targets fine blood vessels beneath the skin’s surface.

Recovery after Laser Genesis treatment is typically minimal. There’s no need for downtime. We advice patients to wear sunscreen and avoid excessive sun exposure to protect the treated skin.

NON-INVASIVE LASER SKIN TREATMENT IN FAIRFAX, VA

OVERVIEW OF THE LASER GENESIS

Laser Genesis is known for being a comfortable and gentle treatment with no downtime. This fast and non-ablative laser rejuvenation is a popular choice for those looking to improve their skin’s appearance without significant recovery time. Here is more information about Laser Genesis:

Consultation:  A consultation with our Medical Aesthetician is essential to discuss your skin concerns and determine if Laser Genesis is suitable for you.

Before the treatment: The day of the treatment your skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, oil, or impurities.

During the treatment: Both the patient and the practitioner wear protective goggles to shield the eyes from the laser light. The practitioner uses a handheld device that emits a laser beam. The practitioner gently move the device over the skin’s surface in a series of passes.

Comfort: The procedure is generally comfortable, with most our patients describing a warming sensation on their skin. It does not require the application of numbing cream.

Duration: Each Laser Genesis session typically lasts around 30 minutes.

Frequency: Our Medical Aesthetician will recommend the optimal number of treatments to achieve the desired results. The treatments are usually spaced a few weeks apart.

Results: Typically, visible improvements can be noticed after a few sessions, with optimal results often seen after 4-6 treatments. Regular maintenance treatments (once a year) can help sustain and enhance these results.

CANDIDATES FOR LASER GENESIS

This non-invasive laser treatment is safe for all skin types and tones. As always, inform your practitioner about any skin problems and medications you are taking before undergoing laser treatment. If you experience any of the following skin conditions, you might be a good candidate for Laser Genesis:

Fine lines and wrinkles: Helps stimulate collagen production, which can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

Acne scars: Can improve the texture and appearance of acne scars by encouraging collagen remodeling.

Large pores: Reduces the appearance of large pores by promoting skin tightening and collagen production.

 

Uneven skin tone & texture: Addresses issues like redness, discoloration, and overall skin texture irregularities.

Skin redness: Targets and reduces redness in the skin, providing a more even complexion.

Rosacea: Can reduce the redness associated with rosacea and improve overall skin tone.

RECOVERY

Recovery after Laser Genesis is typically minimal, making it an appealing option for those seeking effective skin treatment with little downtime. Here’s what to expect in general:

Immediate post-treatment effects: You might experience slight redness and a warm sensation on the treated area, similar to a mild sunburn. This usually subsides within a few hours. Some individuals may notice minor swelling, which typically resolves quickly.

Short-term recovery: Most people can return to their normal activities immediately after treatment. We recommend applying a gentle moisturizer and broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect and soothe the skin.

Long-term care: Limit direct sun exposure and use sunscreen diligently to protect the skin and maintain results. Continue with a gentle skincare routine, avoiding harsh products that can irritate the skin. Skin texture, tone improvements are gradual and become more noticeable after multiple sessions.

Maintanance: A series of 4-6 treatments, typically spaced a few weeks apart, is often recommended for optimal results. However, periodic maintenance treatments may be suggested to sustain the benefits over time.

FAQ

Q: How many Laser Genesis treatments will I need to see results?

The number of treatments varies depending on your skin condition and goals. Most patients see optimal results after 4-6 sessions, spaced about 2-4 weeks apart. Your practitioner will develop a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.

Q: Is Laser Genesis painful?

Laser Genesis is a non-invasive and generally comfortable treatment. Patients typically describe a warming sensation during the procedure, but it is not painful. No numbing cream is usually required.

Q: How does Laser Genesis help with rosacea?

Laser Genesis helps reduce the redness and flushing associated with rosacea by targeting the dilated capillaries beneath the skin’s surface. During the treatment, the laser emits micro-pulses of light that gently heats the upper dermis below the skin’s surface. This controlled heating causes the blood within the capillaries to coagulate, leading to the collapse and eventual reabsorption of the vessel by the body. Patients often experience a warm sensation but no significant discomfort. Regular treatments can lead to significant improvement in rosacea symptoms. 

Q: Can Laser Genesis effectively treat acne scars?

Yes, Laser Genesis is effective in treating acne scars. The laser heats the upper dermis well below the skin’s surface, stimulating collagen production. This collagen remodeling helps to improve the texture and appearance of acne scars over time. Multiple sessions are typically required for optimal results, with noticeable improvements after each treatment.

Q: Is Laser Genesis suitable for treating melasma?

Laser Genesis can help improve the appearance of melasma by targeting the pigment in the skin and promoting a more even skin tone. However, melasma can be challenging to treat and may require a combination approach with other treatments and strict sun protection. It is crucial to follow the practitioner’s advice on skincare and sun avoidance before and after the treatments to prevent exacerbation of the condition. Regular follow-up treatments may be necessary to maintain results.
