Do I need to wait exactly two weeks before my next laser genesis? Is it too soon to get another after 10 days?

Question

Ahmed Maki, DO, FACS · Answer

I generally have my patients space out their laser genesis appointments every 2 weeks as well, however because the procedure is rather mild I wouldn't worry about not being exact on the timing. I've had patients come in for a second treatment as soon as 7 days after their first with no negative effects. It all depends on what exactly you're treating and what your personalized plan is!

Katie, thank you for your great question. It really depends on the reason you are receiving the treatment. Generally there is no downtime following a laser genesis treatment so the treatment interval can be as short as a couple of days. If Iam treating an individual with an acne breakout I will often perform two treatments in a week to provide rapid improvement. However if I am treating someone for skin rejuvenation or blood vessel issues the treatment interval is generally two-four weeks. Hope this helps.

Laser Genesis is a gentle treatment that reduces pore size, softens the skin and helps minimize underlying red tones.  As long as your skin did fine with the first treatment, you should not have problems getting your next treatment ten days later.
