Wrinkles Scars Rosy Cheeks and the Benefits of Laser Genesis

How Does Laser Genesis Work?

Laser Genesis is a non-ablative laser procedure that stimulates the production of collagen in the skin. The laser light targets the deep layers of the skin, where the production of collagen naturally takes place. When the heat of the laser is focused on this layer of the skin, known as the dermis, new collagen is formed.

Collagen is responsible for the texture of the skin and its ability to stretch. Collagen can be damaged by the sun, and it naturally deteriorates over time. This leaves skin without its youthful elasticity, which leads to fine lines and wrinkles. Because the Laser Genesis forces the skin to create more collagen, it helps to restore the skin to its former, more youthful appearance.

Laser Genesis is not merely recommended for aging skin, however. When the laser is focused on the dermis, it also affects the tiny vessels that exist beneath the surface of the skin. This helps to get rid of redness, rosy cheeks and ruddy complexions.

What Does Laser Genesis Feel Like?

The Laser Genesis procedure feels like sunbathing; many patients compare it to taking a trip to the beach. The warming sensation is pleasant, and it lasts for about half an hour after the treatment. The face may tingle a bit for the next 24 hours, but the procedure is not at all painful.


Is There Downtime?

Laser Genesis requires no downtime at all. Many patients have the treatment performed on their lunch break, and return to work afterwards without any problems. It is recommended that patients wear sunscreen following the procedure.


How Long Do the Results Last?  

While the longevity of Laser Genesis treatments vary, many patients see results that last from six to 12 months. To ensure the best results, it is recommended that patients have a series of treatments performed. Many people have between five to ten treatments, which is enough to ensure long lasting skin improvements.
