Laser Genesis FAQS
What Is Laser Genesis?
It is a nonsurgical, non-invasive treatment using infrared laser technology to help restore skin tone and improve the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, acne, large pores, and scars.
How Does It Work?
The non-ablative heat-based technology of Laser Genesis provides the excellent results you seek by destroying acne-causing bacteria on and below the skin. It also goes deep into the skin to reduce redness and flushing as well as stimulate your body’s natural healing powers to ramp up collagen growth. This helps create results that are noticeable immediately, yet also delivers gradual improvements in the following months so that your youthful results look more natural.
Is Laser Genesis Safe?
It’s quite safe. The laser gently heats the deep layers of your skin, allowing it to precisely target the collagen layer of the skin and help rebuild it while not negatively affecting the epidermis.
Is Laser Genesis Painful?
Laser Genesis is generally comfortable and practically painless, though a brief warm tingling sensation may be felt. Many patients report that the procedure actually feels therapeutic.
How Long Does a Laser Genesis Procedure Take?
A Laser Genesis procedure takes around 30 minutes, but this can vary depending on how many areas are being treated.
How Long Does It Take to See Results?
While some patients see results instantly, the general expectation is that you should see gradual results in 3-6 months while the new collagen is produced, which leads to creamier, smoother-looking skin with reduced pores, a more improved complexion, and a more radiant appearance.
How Many Treatments Are Necessary?
The number of treatments you undergo depends on your aesthetic goals and skin condition, but a series of 3-5 treatments over the course of 3-6 months is typical. The only way to know the best way to achieve your goals is to schedule a consultation with the specialists at EllEve Med Spa.
Is There Any Downtime?
In nearly every case, little to no recovery time is necessary.
What Are the Side Effects?
Side effects are generally minimal. However, it’s possible to experience redness, irritation, or mild swelling around the treated area after the procedure, which should fade within hours.
How Long Do Results Last?
This depends on the overall health of each person as well as on the condition being treated. Treatment for scars can bring permanent results, but for pigment issues like redness or rosacea, results typically last about 12 months. To maintain the desired effects from such issues, a maintenance session every 12 months is recommended. Often, if you avoid the sun or protect yourself from the sun and take great care of your skin, results can last longer.
Who Can Be Treated with Laser Genesis?
Women and men of all ages and skin types are ideal candidates. To ensure that it’s the right treatment for you, schedule a consultation at EllEve Med Spa to find out more.
