Laser Genesis Rejuvenation
Laser Genesis skin therapy is an innovative, technologically advanced way to promote vibrant and healthy looking skin in men and women of all skin types. The Laser Genesis procedure has been scientifically proven to produce new collagen.
The Laser Genesis procedure utilizes non-invasive laser technology to safely, discretely and effectively improve those conditions that are typically associated with premature signs of ageing and sun damage, such as excessive redness, large pores, uneven texture, sallow complexion, acne scars and wrinkles with no pain or downtime.
What other conditions can be treated with the Laser Genesis procedure?
- Our innovative new treatment settings for the Laser Genesis procedure has dramatically improved our results for more difficult to treat skin problems such as deeper wrinkles, acne and chicken pox scars.
- For keloids scars, especially red keloids scars, at Clínica Privé we have great success with our Laser Genesis procedure which shrinks the scar and the redness associated with it.
- Laser Genesis treatments can also be used to plump up the lips with no pain or downtime.
- Laser Genesis also improves the appearance of stretch marks especially if combined with Carboxytherapy.
- For Redness and Rosacea, the Laser Genesis procedure shrinks the tiny red veins causing the diffuse redness. If combined with a V-Beam procedure, a superior result can be expected. Both these treatments improve Rosacea but do not cure it as Rosacea is a chronic condition that needs lifetime management.
- For Epidermal Melasma, Laser Genesis facilitates the breakup of the membrane around and helps prevent melasma recurring post treatment.
With Laser Genesis you can expect to see subtle yet consistent results after each treatment, without unwanted side effects such as swelling, redness or excessive skin irritation as one sees with more aggressive laser treatments such as the newer fractionated treatments. Treatments can be performed in a relaxed, comfortable manner without the use of topical anesthetics or gel. 4 to 6 treatments are needed are needed for most of the treatments mentioned above.
How does Laser Genesis work?
By gently heating the upper dermis well below your skin's surface, Laser Genesis heats up the papillary dermis and stimulates collagen growth. In addition, Laser Genesis shrinks the micro blood vessels of the papillary dermis, which reduces and improves diffuse redness. For redness the treatment results are often subtle. On average, you may require four to six treatments in order to achieve optimal results.
Laser Genesis combined with a V-Beam LASER procedure is Clínica Privé's best treatment option for Redness and Rosacea. The redness and flushing improve dramatically but these treatments are not a "cure" for Rosacea, which is a chronic condition that needs lifelong management. Every patient's condition and needs vary and thus between 6 and 8 treatment sessions are needed for optimal results.
How has the Laser Genesis protocols changed to ensure better results?
Traditionally at Clínica Privé we have had difficult finding the correct Laser Genesis procedure settings that would adequately improve deeper wrinkles, acne and chicken pox scars and pore size without any downtime for all of our patients including people of color. In addition most of our patients want to go straight back to work afterwards and do not want to experience any downtime, which is not possible with the new fractionated lasers such as CO2RE Fractional LASER.
At Clínica Privé we have finally found the right setting!! After doing literally thousands of procedures, safe innovative protocols and treatment settings have been introduced for our Laser Genesis procedures. These new settings are resulting in dramatically improved results for deeper wrinkles, acne scars and chicken pox scars in patients of all skin colors and all with no downtime. These new protocols have now been introduced into all our packages including the 3 D Laser Rejuvenation.
For most conditions 6 to 8 no downtime treatment sessions are necessary for the best results.
What kind of textural improvements can you expect with Laser Genesis skin therapy?
Over the course of four to six treatments, Laser Genesis can help restore the skin's youthful glow and appearance by smoothing out uneven texture caused by ageing, sun damage or acne scars.
You will see a more even, healthy complexion as large pores are reduced in size, and minor imperfections are diminished.
The skin is also brighter and the sallowness which comes with ageing is improved on.
The individual treatment results are subtle, but the overall effect of multiple treatments can be quite dramatic especially if Laser Genesis is combined with other procedures.
The skin's elasticity and collagen content improve over time.
Acne scars, previously difficult to treat in skin of color, improves significantly after a series of 6 to 8 treatment sessions of Laser Genesis.
When should one start Laser Genesis?
As one ages, the skin's elasticity declines dramatically, wrinkles become evident and our skin takes on a sallow complexion. One of the earliest signs of facial ageing is the development of fine lines and wrinkles. Previously there were no non-ablative alternatives to laser resurfacing. The choices were fairly black and white; ablative resurfacing such as CO2RE or wrinkles!
Now with the advent of non ablative resurfacing techniques such as Laser Genesis and skin rejuvenation procedures such as 3D, virtually any patient in their thirties or above can be a candidate for a little rejuvenation and the younger the patient the better the result, as the skin has a better ability to rejuvenate . After a series of 6 to 8 treatments, ten out of ten patients will be putting collagen " in the skin bank" for the future. Perhaps even more promising is the idea that treating skin with lasers earlier on in the ageing process-at around age 30-40 may actually slow or prevent the skin from breaking down and appearing wrinkled and saggy later on in life.
Is Laser Genesis safe?
At Clínica Privé thousands of Laser Genesis procedures have been performed without any side effects. After the procedure there may be slight redness that disappears within a few minutes of treatment.
Can Laser Genesis treatments be combined with other procedures?
At Clínica Privé, Laser Genesis is part of our signature treatment; Privé MEDSPA's 3D Laser Rejuvenation. In addition, Botox and Fillers (The Liquid Facelift) are commonly performed after a 3 D Laser Rejuvenation procedure. This combination is one of the most widely used and most effective methods of achieving a significant aesthetic improvement of wrinkles within 3 to 6 months when the effects of laser rejuvenation become evident. At Privé MEDSPA we also include Carboxytherapy of the face and neck to further improve wrinkles and sagging.
Can Laser Genesis be used on all skin types?
Yes, Laser Genesis safely treats all skin types without significant pain or downtime. At Clínica Privé, Laser Genesis has been safely used to treat acne scars and pores in many of our darker type 5 and 6 skin types with no side effects.
