Laser Genesis vs. Traditional Rejuvenation Treatments: What’s Better?
5 May 2025What to Expect Before and After Your Laser Genesis Treatment

Introduction
Laser Genesis is a non-invasive, no-downtime treatment that offers impressive results for skin texture, tone, and redness. While it's a gentle procedure, preparing your skin beforehand and following aftercare instructions will help you get the most out of every session. In this article, we'll cover what to expect before, during, and after Laser Genesis — so you feel confident going in and glowing coming out.
How to Prepare Before Your Laser Genesis Appointment
To ensure your skin is in the best condition for treatment, follow these preparation tips:
- **Avoid sun exposure** for at least one week before your session. Tanned or sunburned skin is more sensitive to laser heat.
- **Discontinue retinoids and acids** (like AHAs or BHAs) 3–5 days before your treatment to avoid irritation.
- **Stay hydrated** — well-hydrated skin responds better to laser energy.
- **Avoid waxing, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion** in the treatment area for at least one week prior.
- **Come with clean skin.** Avoid wearing makeup, lotions, or SPF on the treatment area the day of your appointment.
What Happens During the Treatment?
Laser Genesis is quick and comfortable. Most sessions take about 30–45 minutes, depending on the area.
You’ll wear protective eyewear while a skilled technician gently moves the laser handpiece over your skin. The sensation is often described as warm and soothing — similar to standing near sunlight or enjoying a warm stone facial.
There’s no numbing needed, and many clients find the treatment relaxing. It’s perfect for people with busy schedules since you can resume daily activities immediately afterward.
What to Expect After the Treatment
Laser Genesis has no downtime, but there are a few things to keep in mind post-treatment:
- **Mild redness** may occur immediately afterward but typically fades within a few hours.
- **No flaking or peeling** — your skin might feel warm but won't require any recovery time.
- **You can apply makeup** after a few hours, but many clients love the post-treatment glow and go makeup-free.
- **Avoid heat and exercise** for 24 hours. Sweating can increase irritation.
- **Moisturize and apply SPF 30+** daily. Laser Genesis increases your skin’s sensitivity to the sun.
Results Timeline: When Will You See a Difference?
Many patients notice a radiant glow after just one session. However, the most significant improvements — including smoother skin, less redness, and tighter pores — build gradually.
Typically, noticeable results emerge after 3–4 sessions, with optimal benefits seen after completing a full series of 4 to 6 treatments. Collagen production continues improving the skin for weeks post-treatment.
Combining Laser Genesis With Other Skincare Treatments
Laser Genesis can safely be paired with treatments like facials, dermaplaning, or even light chemical peels — depending on your skincare goals. This makes it an ideal foundation for a more comprehensive rejuvenation plan. Your provider can advise you on the best treatment combination and schedule.
