Laser treatments are the gold standard of aesthetic treatments today, seemingly capable of doing several things simultaneously. Before, laser treatments were only used for removing unwanted hair. Nowadays, recent innovations have paved the way for lasers to resurface, rejuvenate and treat vascular lesions—one of these innovations is Laser Genesis treatment.
Many thought that surgical procedures were the only way to achieve the best aesthetic results. However, this mindset is now slowly aging thanks to the introduction and the capability of laser treatments. A better skin no longer means going through the scalpel; lasers can now achieve the same results.
Laser Genesis is often recommended if you want a quick and non-invasive procedure to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. But before you try, you first want to know what the treatment is and how it works. See if it really lives to the hype or not.
What Is Laser Genesis Treatment?
Laser Genesis is a tried and tested aesthetic resurfacing treatment that uses light energy to overturn dead skin cells and stimulate the growth of new healthy ones. Like any other laser treatment, the technology uses light energy to stimulate biological processes in your skin. Since this is a laser treatment, you won’t have to trouble yourself with injections or other sharp tools, just a simple light shining on you.
The treatment has been around for quite a while, and early laser models have been around since 2009. Updates and new features are added, but the core functions remain fundamentally the same. While it’s been around for quite some time, it only became trendy when social media influencers and celebrities started promoting it in 2018—still gaining popularity.
A professional and licensed provider will administer the treatment, completing the procedure in less than an hour. Results are rapid while minimizing downtime and aftercare needed. It’s a short appointment, and you can go out of your office during lunchtime and return promptly.
Applicable For Almost Everyone
Almost everyone can use laser genesis to enhance their looks, regardless of gender, ethnicity, and skin type. The treatment is safe, and thousands who have tried it can attest to that—check some reviews and see what people say about it.
However, there are exceptions. If you are pregnant or have any skin conditions, you may want to reconsider or consult a doctor first. The effects of laser treatments are not well researched in pregnant women.
How It Works
The wonders of laser treatment can be pretty mind-blowing. Light energy beaming at you can do so many things to your skin, affecting biological processes. On top of that, they are precise and accurate.
Laser treatments these days are so precise that they can target and heat specific skin layers without affecting their surroundings. Here is how it works:
Resurfacing Treatment
Resurfacing treatment is a technique that removes the damaged outer layers of the skin to reveal a healthier-looking complexion underneath. It also encourages new skin cells to grow.
Our skin’s outer layers frequently experience wear and tear, either from injury, aging, and other environmental factors. Over time, they produce wrinkles, scars, age spots, and discoloration. The resurfacing method reverses the effects of these skin blemishes, making you more youthful-looking and even achieving healthier skin.
Many skin resurfacing treatments exist, including chemical peels, microdermabrasion, dermabrasion, and microneedling. All of them are effective in their own right, but their efficacy and efficiency are lacking compared to laser genesis treatment.
Other skin resurfacing treatments require sharp tools or acids to resurface the skin. On the other hand, laser genesis treatment is a total hands-free solution, allowing for minimal or no downtime and reducing aftercare instructions.
Laser Genesis is frequently utilized for the face, neck, chest, stomach, and hands. Wherever skin areas you need working on, Laser Genesis can help.
Stimulates Collagen Production
On top of making new room for new cells to grow and replace the old ones, this treatment also taps into your body’s processes and stimulates collagen production.
The light energy reaches into the deep layers and breaks down some fibrous tissues. When these tissues break down, they discharge small molecule compounds called cytokines, necessary for collagen production.
Why You Need More Collagen
Collagen is a frequent buzzword you frequently see in many of our blogs and other features of other aesthetic treatments. But why is that? Why the fuzz about collagen?
The protein collagen gives your skin strength, elasticity, and suppleness. It is the very framework that holds your skin together, keeping it healthy. When you have plenty of collagen, the skin is young and vibrant.
Unfortunately, collagen production decreases the more you age. Other factors such as sun exposure, stress, smoking, and other environmental decreases collagen production. When there isn’t enough collagen, nothing holds your skin together, causing signs of aging such as wrinkles and fine lines.
Laser Genesis can restore some amounts of collagen production in your skin, restoring its health and youthfulness.
What Happens During The Procedure?
Like any other aesthetic treatment, there will always be steps you have to take before starting. You will need a consultation to identify what needs working and discuss what you can expect from it with the provider. Your provider will also discuss risks, and while it is infrequent, they can still happen.
Guidelines Before The Procedure
Follow the guidelines your provider gives you. It will ensure that there will be no mishaps and also reduce the potential risks of side effects.
They may instruct you to remove your makeup and moisturizers before the procedure. They may also ask you to remove some facial hair to ensure an even application throughout.
The Procedure
The laser itself looks like a portable gun-shaped bar code reader, and it is attached to a large machine. So the treatment will be like a provider scanning you with a laser, but it’s not actually scanning but emitting laser light. While it is painless, you may experience some heat, like the sun’s heat.
