Laser genesis rejuvenation therapy works to target and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and other common skin concerns. By boosting collagen production in the skin, this laser facial treatment effectively diminishes dark spots, rosacea patches, acne/acne scars and hyperpigmentation, among other skin imperfections.

At Kessel Dermatology, we offer excel V+™ laser technology to help our patients achieve a clearer, smoother, more evenly toned complexion. Read on to learn more about how this treatment works and what to expect during a laser facial. 

What To Expect During A Laser Facial

Not only is laser genesis highly effective at improving skin texture, combating redness and unveiling a more youthful appearance; it is also a quick procedure that involves minimal discomfort and downtime. Generally speaking, here’s what you can anticipate with this advanced treatment:

  • Initial Consultation – To determine whether you are a good candidate for laser genesis, we ask that you schedule a consultation with one of our skin care providers. During this appointment, we will discuss your particular skin goals and help you decide if this treatment is right for you at this time.
  • Day of Treatment – Typically, an excel V+™ laser facial lasts about 15-30 minutes. Unlike many other cosmetic procedures, this treatment does not involve injections or require the application of topical anesthesia. To administer the treatment, your skin care provider will hold the excel V+™ hand piece over the parts of the face/neck you are aiming to target until abnormal blood vessels have been removed.
  • After Treatment – Following laser genesis, it is normal to notice a slight reddening of the skin, which typically fades within a few hours. Directly after this treatment, you may resume your regular activities. You may also apply sunscreen and makeup, if desired.

While noticeable results are typically achieved with the very first session, our package of 6 treatments is typically recommended to experience the full benefits of laser genesis. During your initial consultation, your skin care provider will help you create an individualized treatment plan based on your unique skin and complexion goals.
