Can you do Laser Genesis and a microneedling session one week apart? (on sensitive skin)

danxooooOct 11, 2019
I will be doing my third laser genesis on a Wednesday, and am hoping to do my second microneedling session the following Wednesday. I have very sensitive skin that has been burned by Fraxel before. I haven't had any bad reactions to laser genesis. Is it safe to do them one week apart?

Hi, Thank you for your question. To the best of my knowledge, there is no association of the use of Laser Genesis and fat loss. I have not seen any evidence of fat loss with our Laser Genesis machine in our practice. Hope that this helps. Good luck.
