“Laser gensis and microdermbrasion fails for cystic acne scarring.”
Laser Genesis: NOT worth it
Cost: $2,000
Pain: Mild
Pain: Mild
Laser Genesis satisfaction: Poor
I do not recommend my Laser Genesis provider: Name not provided
Why: Nothing wrong with who performed it, it just didn't work for me personally.
7 treatments and i see little difference after 8 months. I also had micro-dermabrasion done before each laser genesis treatment. Still red, still uneven skin tone.The procedures were done correct and professionally which is nice but ; Lots of wasted money. Fabulous.
I've had 7 microdermabrasion treatments with laser genesis over a series of months recently, and my skin still is sunken in from cystic acne scars. I have done a plethora of other treatments through the years as well to no avail. My skin looks the same as it always did after years of all these treatments - Is there any hope left?

Sounds like you have depleted the skin's lipid barrier with all that micro dermabrasion - stop having that done, not good!! Exfoliation once or twice weekly is all that should be done :)
