Genesis Laser

The Genesis laser is an aesthetic treatment that induces skin remodeling by stimulating collagen production. It is used in a variety of situations:

• management of acne scars
• reduction of dilated pores
• reduction of diffuse skin redness
• reduction of fine lines

How does the Genesis laser work?

The Genesis laser “heats” the dermis and stimulates fibroblasts to produce collagen. This skin remodeling can be performed on all phototypes.

How many sessions are needed to achieve a satisfactory result?

Genesis laser treatment is performed over several sessions (4 to 6 sessions), spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart. A redensification of the skin is visible 3 weeks after the first session, but it may take several sessions to achieve optimal results. To maintain results (for facial rejuvenation or dilated pores), a maintenance session is required every 4 to 5 months.

How does the session work?

The patient comes to the appointment with clean, perfectly cleansed skin, free of moisturizer. The doctor sweeps the area to be treated with the Genesis laser without touching the patient’s skin. The patient feels a heat/stinging effect that is quite tolerable. At the end of the session, the patient’s skin has a rosy appearance, and make-up can be applied if desired.

What are the side effects of Genesis laser treatment?

Side effects of the Genesis laser are generally minor and disappear rapidly (pinkish/red appearance of the skin after the session).

What are the contraindications to Genesis laser treatment?

Contraindications to laser treatment include: recent tanning, self-tanning, the presence of permanent make-up on the areas to be treated, taking photosensitizing medication, photosensitizing diseases (e.g. lupus), the tendency to develop keloid scars, pregnancy and breast-feeding.
