The Laser Genesis difference in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC
The Laser Genesis procedure utilizes laser technology to safely, discretely and effectively treat uneven skin texture, scars, large pores, and diffuse and excessive redness. Laser Genesis is a comfortable, non-ablative, non-invasive form of skin therapy. You can expect to see subtle yet consistent results after each treatment, without unwanted side effects such as bruising or excessive skin irritation. Your therapy can be performed in a relaxed, comfortable manner without the use of general or local anesthesia, gel or cream.
What areas can be treated with Laser Genesis in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC?
Laser Genesis Skin Therapy patients report excellent results over their entire faces and neck. Additionally, practitioners may suggest this therapy to diminish recent scars on other pars of the body.
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 therapy will help your appearance by gently treating and reducing this condition.
What does the Laser Genesis feel like in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC?
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 expect to 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 Skin Therapy stimulates collagen regrowth.
What can I expect before the Laser Genesis treatment in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC?
You will not need to apply any 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 and, in some cases, you may be asked to shave the area to be treated so as not to interfere with the laser therapy. Your medical professional will review and assist with all pre-treatment requirements.
How many Laser Genesis treatments will I need in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC?

What kind of textural improvements can you expect with the Laser Genesis?
