What It Treats
Gentle dermal heating stimulates collagen production — progressively improving skin firmness, texture, and overall luminosity session by session.
1064nm energy targets dilated capillaries driving facial redness and flushing — reducing overall redness without surface disruption or downtime.
Thermal energy kills P. acnes bacteria and suppresses overactive sebaceous glands — reducing breakout frequency and severity over a treatment series.
Post-inflammatory erythema (the red flat marks left after breakouts) fades progressively as the dilated capillaries causing them are gently closed.
As collagen thickens the dermis, the walls supporting pore openings firm up — visibly reducing pore size and improving overall skin smoothness.
An immediate, healthy radiance follows every session — making Laser Genesis the go-to same-day treatment before events, photo shoots, or occasions.
How It Works
Laser Genesis delivers thousands of gentle 1064nm Nd:YAG micropulses into the upper dermis — below the skin's surface — without disrupting the outer layer at all. This gentle thermal stimulus activates fibroblasts (your collagen-producing cells) and closes dilated capillaries driving redness, without any ablation, numbing, or recovery.
Most patients describe the sensation as warm sunlight on the skin — comfortable, even relaxing. No numbing cream is needed. Sessions take approximately 30 minutes and you can return to your day immediately — often with an immediate healthy glow that lasts for days.
Results are cumulative. Each session builds on the last. The improvements in collagen, redness, and skin quality deepen progressively over a series — with most patients starting with 4–6 monthly sessions before transitioning to maintenance.
Questions Answered
Truly none. Laser Genesis is non-ablative — it works entirely below the skin surface without disrupting the outer layer. Most patients leave with a mild, healthy flush that resolves within an hour. No peeling, no redness the next day, no activity restrictions. You can schedule it the morning of an event if you like.
Most patients start with a series of 4–6 monthly sessions to build the collagen foundation and see meaningful improvement in their primary concern. After the initial series, monthly or quarterly maintenance sessions sustain and continue building results over time.
You'll notice an immediate glow after your very first session — but the deeper improvements in redness, pore size, and texture develop progressively across the series.
Yes — Laser Genesis is safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types, including darker skin tones. The 1064nm wavelength does not target melanin, so it carries none of the pigmentation risks associated with IPL or ablative laser treatments. It's one of the most inclusive treatments we offer.
Laser Genesis is one of the most versatile combination treatments available. It pairs beautifully with Limelight IPL (the "2D Facial" for redness + pigmentation), Secret RF (for deeper structural improvement), and SilkPeel Dermalinfusion for a comprehensive skin health protocol. Because there's no downtime or recovery, it can often be done in the same appointment as other treatments.
Laser Genesis suits almost anyone — from patients in their late 20s wanting preventive collagen maintenance, to those managing active acne, rosacea, or post-acne redness. It's particularly well-suited to patients who want real, progressive improvement without any downtime or those who have been told their skin type isn't suitable for more aggressive laser treatments.
The only contraindications are pregnancy and active skin cancer in the treatment area. Patients with pacemakers should consult their provider before treatment.
