On our journey to achieve optimal skin health, we may encounter roadblocks such as acne, age spots, enlarged pores, and uneven skin tone. These complications can be frustrating barriers between us and the skin we desire. Luckily, Birmingham Cosmetic Surgery offers a variety of noninvasive skincare treatments, like Laser Genesis, that can greatly diminish these barricades and set you on your path toward the skin of your dreams.
What is Laser Genesis?
Laser Genesis is a noninvasive laser procedure that uses near-infrared energy to gently heat the surface, as well as the below layers, of the skin. The result is an increase in collagen production and cell regeneration, leading to plumper, smoother skin. The laser can also constrict blood vessels, correcting issues related to hyperpigmentation and rosacea in the process. Laser Genesis is most commonly performed on the face or neck but can also be used to treat concerns on the shoulders, decolletage, and hands.

Your skilled skincare professional will use a small wand that is hooked up to a larger machine to administer the laser technology to your skin. You will be given goggles to wear to protect your eyes, as the treatment can be quite bright.
Laser Genesis is a painless procedure with no downtime. During treatment, you will feel some heat on your face, similar to the feeling of being in the sun or holding a cup of warm coffee to your cheek. After your treatment, you are able to resume your day with no modifications.
What Our Patients Say
Who is a Good Candidate for Laser Genesis?
Anyone looking for a noninvasive skincare treatment with no downtime or recovery should look no further than Laser Genesis. Known as a “lunchtime procedure,” Laser Genesis is great for individuals with busy or active lifestyles. Treatments can be completed in 45 minutes and don’t require you to take time off work or out of your day for recovery. Laser Genesis can treat the following concerns regardless of your skin type:
- Fine Lines
- Wrinkles
- Acne
- Uneven skin tone
- Pore Size
After Laser Genesis
There are no required recovery instructions or rest periods involved with Laser Genesis treatments. Depending on your skin goals, patients will need around 4-6 laser genesis sessions to achieve optimal results. You will begin to see results about halfway through your treatment plan, and these can last 6-12 months with maintenance appointments scheduled as needed.
