Custom-tailored for your skin.
At VITAHL Medical Aesthetics in College Grove & Thompson’s Station, Tennessee, we're not only about skin care — we're about skin transformation. Dive into a new era of beauty with Laser Genesis, the leading laser facial treatment that can unlock your skin’s health and radiance with no downtime.
Laser Genesis is a global powerhouse in the world of dermatology and medical aesthetics devices. Whether you’re dealing with fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars or facial redness, this cutting-edge treatment can be tailored to address your exact concerns and provide long-lasting results, helping your skin look and feel its absolute best year-round.
Why Do We Need Laser Facials?
As we age, collagen production slows down, along with our skin's natural ability to shed old cells and generate new ones. This decrease in collagen — an essential structural protein — and cellular turnover can lead to dull skin, an uneven texture and fine lines or wrinkles. Laser facials revitalize this process, stimulating the synthesis of fresh collagen to rejuvenate your appearance.
Laser Genesis works by using short pulses of light to gently heat up the dermis, kickstarting the production of new collagen fibers to improve skin texture and elasticity. This not only rejuvenates the skin’s appearance but also enhances its integrity, increasing its resilience to aging and environmental factors. The heat from the laser also targets small blood vessels beneath the skin, making it effective for facial redness and rosacea.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Laser Genesis?
Laser Genesis is excellent for individuals experiencing the early signs of aging, such as enlarged pores, wrinkles and an uneven texture, or for those dealing with persistent skin conditions like acne or rosacea. Suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types (I-VI), this treatment is particularly beneficial for people with active lifestyles who need a no-downtime procedure.
How to Prepare for Laser Genesis
Preparing for your Laser Genesis session is straightforward. We recommend avoiding any products or medications that can increase skin sensitivity, such as retinoids and certain acne medications, for a week before treatment. It’s also advisable to stay out of direct sunlight and avoid any harsh skin treatments or chemical peels for several days prior to your session.
The treatment experience itself is comfortable and relaxing. You’ll simply lie back while the handheld device is passed over your skin, emitting a gentle warmth. Many describe the sensation as soothing, akin to the feeling of sunbathing. Each session takes 30 to 60 minutes to complete, depending on the area being treated. Afterward, you’ll be able to return home and get back to your normal routine with no downtime, making it the perfect lunchtime laser facial.
What to Expect During Your Recovery
Aftercare
Adhere to all aftercare guidelines for the best results — this is your blueprint for healthy, radiant skin. Your skin might look red or flushed for a few hours following your treatment, but this is completely normal and should resolve on its own.
Side Effects
Rarely, more serious side effects or reactions like skin irritation, blistering and mild discomfort in treated areas may occur. Choosing an experienced provider like those at VITAHL can help minimize the risk of skin reactions, side effects and other complications.
Sun Exposure
Laser treatments can increase skin sensitivity and make you more vulnerable to UV damage, so we recommend wearing a high SPF (30+) sunscreen and avoiding direct sun exposure in the weeks after your treatment.
What Results Can I Expect From Laser Genesis?
Immediate Results: Immediately following your Laser Genesis session, you’ll likely notice a subtle enhancement in your skin's appearance. This initial glow is due to the gentle heat applied to the dermis, which boosts circulation and begins the process of collagen production. Patients often describe their skin as appearing more radiant and feeling exceptionally smooth right after treatment.
Final Results: The true impact of Laser Genesis is seen after completing a series of treatments, typically at least five spaced a few weeks apart. This allows for gradual improvements and more significant, longer-lasting results. By the end of your treatment series, you can expect a dramatic enhancement in the overall quality of your skin. Fine lines are greatly reduced, scars and pores are less visible, and the overall tone and texture of your skin are markedly improved.
Maintaining Your Results: If you continue with monthly or bi-monthly treatments, you can expect your results to get better over time. Subsequent sessions can lessen the appearance of acne scars and enlarged pores while refining the overall texture of your skin. Issues like redness will also start to diminish with repeat treatments, leaving you with a brighter and more youthful-looking complexion.
What people are saying about us
How Often Should I Undergo Treatment?
The exact frequency and number of treatments you’ll need can vary depending on your concerns and goals. For most patients, we recommend starting with a series of five treatments performed every two to four weeks for the best outcome. If you’re addressing a particular problem, such as facial redness, we may recommend corrective treatments as often as every two weeks. Once you’ve achieved your desired results, a once-monthly (every four weeks) maintenance treatment can keep your skin looking refreshed and revitalized.
