Cutera LASER GENESIS
For Treatment of wrinkles, large pores, skin texture and redness
The Laser Genesis Difference
The Laser Genesis procedure utilized non-invasive laser
technology to safely, discretely, and effectively treat fine
lines, wrinkles, large pores, uneven skin texture, diffuse
redness and scars. You can expect to see subtle yet consistent
results after each treatment, without unwanted side effects such
as bruising or excessive skin irritation. Treatments can be
performed in a relaxed, comfortable manner without the use of
topical anesthetics or gel.
What areas can be treated?
Laser Genesis patients report excellent results over their
entire faces and necks.
What is diffuse redness?
Diffuse redness is a general appearance of facial redness, such
as rosy cheeks. This condition is caused by dilated capillaries,
resulting in an appearance of general redness, not discrete,
well defined vessels. The most commonly affected areas are the
nose, forehead and cheeks. Diffuse redness is often associated
with a condition called rosacea and it can be hereditary. Laser
Genesis will help your appearance by gently reducing this
condition.
What does the procedure feel like?
Patients often describe the treatment as relaxing and
therapeutic. You will experience a gentle warming of your skin’s
surface during the procedure as the laser handpiece is moved
back and forth about ½ inch above your skin. You can immediately
return to normal activities, utilizing sunscreen if
participating in outdoor activities.
How does Laser Genesis Work?
By gently heating the upper dermis well below your skin’s
surface, Laser Genesis stimulates collagen growth. Additional
heat is generated in dilated capillaries to reduce redness.
What can I expect before the treatment?
You will not need gel, anesthetic cream or ice prior to
treatment. Before the actual Laser Genesis treatment, you will
be asked to remove your make-up or moisturizers.
How many treatments will I need?
The treatments are often subtle. On average, you may require
four to six treatments in order to achieve optimal results.
Every patient’s condition and needs vary.
What are the possible side effects?
Although most patients report a few if any side effects, the
most common is a slight redness that disappears within a few
hours of treatment.
What kind of textural improvements can you expect with Laser
Genesis skin therapy?
Over the course of four to five treatments, Laser Genesis can
help restore the skin’s youthful glow and appearance by
smoothing out the uneven textures caused by aging, sun damage,
or scars. You will see a more creamy, healthy complexion as
large pores are reduced in size, and minor imperfections are
diminished. The individual treatment results are subtle, but the
overall effect of multiple treatments can be quite dramatic.
