Laser Genesis

What is it?

Cutera Laser Genesis is a non-invasive laser treatment that utilises advanced technology to rejuvenate the skin and improve its overall appearance. It works by delivering microsecond pulses of laser energy to the skin, targeting the upper layers, and gently heating the dermis, the deeper layer of the skin. This controlled heating stimulates collagen production and promotes natural healing processes, leading to various scientific benefits.

The benefits of Cutera Laser Genesis

Collagen stimulation

The laser energy stimulates the production of new collagen, a protein that provides structural support to the skin. As we age, collagen production decreases, leading to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. By promoting collagen synthesis, Laser Genesis helps to improve skin elasticity, smooth out wrinkles, and restore a more youthful appearance.

Skin texture improvement

Laser Genesis helps refine the skin's texture by reducing the appearance of enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, and roughness. The controlled heat from the laser encourages cell turnover, allowing fresh, healthy skin cells to emerge and giving the skin a smoother, more even texture.

Redness and rosacea reduction

The laser energy targets and reduces the redness associated with rosacea, a chronic skin condition characterised by facial flushing and persistent redness. Laser Genesis selectively heats the haemoglobin (red blood cells) responsible for the redness, causing blood vessels to shrink and fade over time. This can result in a significant reduction in redness and a more even skin tone.

Improvement in scars

Laser Genesis can help diminish the appearance of acne scars, surgical scars, and other types of abnormal scarring. The laser energy targets the scar tissue, stimulating collagen remodelling and encouraging the growth of healthier skin cells. This process gradually improves the texture, colour, and overall appearance of the area.

Sun damage repair

Laser Genesis can effectively address sun damage, including sunspots, age spots, and uneven pigmentation. The laser energy breaks down excess melanin (pigment) in the skin, leading to a more even skin tone and a reduction in the appearance of sunspots. Additionally, the stimulation of collagen production helps repair the collagen fibres in sun-damaged skin, restoring a healthier complexion.

Minimal downtime and side effects

One of the advantages of Cutera Laser Genesis is that it is a gentle and non-invasive treatment. It typically requires NO downtime, and any side effects are usually minimal, such as mild redness or swelling, which often subsides within a few minutes. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure.
