Treatment Overview
Genesis Laser is a non-ablative 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser treatment that gently heats the upper dermis to stimulate collagen, improve circulation, and refine skin texture. It is widely used in Korean dermatology clinics for redness, enlarged pores, and mild tightening.
When paired with Ultherapy, the two complement each other perfectly: Ultherapy lifts deep SMAS layers with focused ultrasound, while Genesis refines the dermis and surface skin, improving redness, pores, and tone for a healthier glow.
Purpose & Benefits
- Skin Tightening Support: Stimulates collagen for mild firming.
- Redness Reduction: Helps with rosacea, flushing, and visible capillaries.
- Texture Refinement: Smooths roughness and minimizes pores.
- Wrinkle Softening: Improves fine lines and boosts elasticity.
- Skin Glow: Brightens complexion and improves circulation.
- Combination with Ultherapy: Deep lift from Ultherapy + surface rejuvenation from Genesis.
