Not Sure
Spent: $100 in CA

It seems to be helpful. But I am not sure if I received enought time for each session. It has been less than 10 minutes each time.

I had a few sessions already. Each Laser genesis session only takes about 10 minutes or less. Should it be longer?

I've had 3 sessions at a salon in Irvine and each lasted from 5-10 mins also. Is this the typical case with everyone else?

Mine lasted at least 30 minutes just for the cheek areas. Sounds like you're getting JIPPED.

My doctor aims for 6000 pulses at 13 joules (the recommended setting is 13-14). It took 25 minutes so it sounds like you are getting less.

Wow, laser genesis should be about forty five minutes to an hour. With esthetician licensing in FL. and CO. and fifteen years of practice under my belt .. I would know. Please find yourself a new laser treatment center that will give you your full treatment time.

I had the same issue. My treatment at a med-spa took only 9 minutes. Fortunately, I had had one treatment by a physician before the one at the spa and knew it was a problem. I had purchased a package of 6 treatments for a greatly reduced price and I think they were trying to shorten the treatment to recoup the fees lost to the discount. I did confront them and the manager did not count that first treatment as part of the package of six treatments.
