Discuss your areas of concern with Dr. Birchall during your in-person consultation, so that he can customize a course of treatment that meets your needs.
A Laser Genesis treatment is suitable for adult men and women who have concerns about their skin appearance. It is safe for all skin types. Patients considering this treatment should be in good health and should not have any contraindications, which include pregnancy or breastfeeding.
How Laser Genesis Works
Laser Genesis is a non-ablative laser treatment that gently heats the middle layers of your skin, the upper dermis. When your skin tissues are heated in this way, your body’s natural wound-healing response is initiated. That said, the procedure is extremely gentle and comfortable, leaving behind no obvious signs of having had a treatment.
As Laser Genesis stimulates your body’s natural healing response, your skin starts to create more collagen and elastin, which will begin to mature over the next few months, replenishing the amount you have naturally lost over time. As a result of increased amounts of collagen and elastin in the skin, you should enjoy not only improved skin tone and elasticity but also better hydration, further contributing to a healthy, refreshed glow.
The treatment offers patients additional benefits. Small facial capillaries as well as rosacea can also be diminished after a Laser Genesis treatment. A reduction of symptoms such as fine lines, enlarged pores, wrinkles, and redness are further hallmarks of healthier skin post-procedure, making you look more youthful. Also, because Laser Genesis is a natural treatment, it is safe and effective on all skin types and can be used by patients of both genders, year-round, with no downtime.
The treatment was designed to present you with the high-quality results you want, quickly. After Laser Genesis, you shouldn’t have any downtime or look overdone. Instead, you will have noticeably enhanced skin with a natural glow, revealing one of your best features, with results that are instant and lasting.
Laser Genesis Recovery
Laser Genesis is a safe and effective treatment that has few to no side effects for most patients. Some people do report having mild redness and sensitivity in treated areas right after treatment. Still, that quickly disappears within an hour. Reduced hair growth in treated areas is another reported, although rare, symptom.
If you’re considering Laser Genesis but have concerns about how it might affect hair growth—perhaps you’re a man who wants to maintain your beard—Dr. Birchall is here to help. He can guide you in determining whether Laser Genesis is the right choice for your skin and, if needed, offer alternative skin rejuvenation treatments that will better suit your needs. Your comfort and satisfaction are always a top priority.
After your Laser Genesis treatment, the aftercare is simple and straightforward. The most important step is applying sunscreen to protect your treated skin from harmful UV rays. Our team of skin experts will be able to recommend some highly effective products, which you will also be able to sample at our offices. Avoid direct, intense sunlight whenever possible. Also, if you will be outside for prolonged periods, wear a wide-brimmed hat to block the sun.
Laser Genesis Results
Your Laser Genesis results will begin in the lower layers of the skin as soon as you have your treatment. However, it may take three to four weeks before your results are visible on the surface of your skin as older skin cells give way to newer ones. Further, since every individual’s body is different, your results will begin to appear at their own unique rate. That said, you should keep experiencing positive improvements from your treatment over the coming weeks. Most patients get optimal results 12 weeks after treatment.
You should purchase a full course of treatment to obtain maximum results from Laser Genesis. However, the number of sessions you need will vary, based on your symptoms and the extent of your treatment area. Usually, between five and 10 treatments are necessary, approximately four to six weeks apart.
After you have completed all your sessions, you can expect your results to last between six and 12 months before any touch-ups are needed. Our team will ensure that you look healthy and refreshed by scheduling the ideal number of follow-ups to maintain your results.

What Is the Difference between an Ablative and Non-Ablative Laser?
A non-ablative laser such as Laser Genesis is a type of treatment in which portions of the underlying skin are treated, through micro-punctures. This enables the improvement of a wide skin area without compromising the top layer of the skin.
By contrast, an ablative treatment treats the skin by eliminating the surface layer of the skin. The new skin revealed underneath provides patients with the rejuvenation they desire.
Are Results from Laser Genesis Treatments Permanent?
The results from a Laser Genesis treatment have the potential to be long lasting, with new collagen continuing to form and mature for up to six months.
However, Laser Genesis is not a permanent skincare solution. Aging will continue to deplete your stores of collagen. As such, regular follow-ups will be necessary to maintain the result of your Laser Genesis treatment.
How Long Will I Have to Be in the Office for a Laser Genesis Treatment?
A complete Laser Genesis session generally lasts between 30 and 60 minutes; the length of your sessions will depend on which area or areas of the body you are having treated. There is no downtime after Laser Genesis treatment, nor will you have any restrictions on your normal activities.
Will the Laser Genesis Treatment Be Painful?
Laser Genesis is a very comfortable treatment. You will feel a gentle warming sensation in the areas where you are having Laser Genesis, which many patients describe as relaxing. You don’t need any anesthesia or pain medication before, during, or after treatment. Still, to protect your eyes, you may need to wear goggles if your face is being treated.
