LASER GENESIS™ LASER TREATMENT

Reveal smoother, more radiant skin with Laser Genesis at awakenMD in Palo Alto. This gentle, non-invasive laser treatment helps soften fine lines, reduce facial redness, and improve uneven skin texture with little to no downtime. Suitable for a wide range of skin types and tones, Laser Genesis offers gradual, natural-looking improvements for a refreshed complexion.

HOW IT WORKS

Laser Genesis delivers gentle laser energy beneath the skin’s surface, creating controlled warmth that stimulates natural collagen production. It also targets the tiny blood vessels that contribute to diffuse redness, helping promote a more even-looking complexion.

Unlike resurfacing treatments that remove layers of skin, Laser Genesis works without ablating the surface. Over a series of treatments, skin can appear smoother, clearer, and more radiant.

2.       Preparation: The skin is cleansed, and protective eyewear is provided. Numbing cream is generally unnecessary.
