Are the Results of Laser Genesis Treatments Permanent?

Hello! Thank you for your question. Laser treatments like Laser Genesis are not permanent, but they also do not wear off after a few months the same way that Botox or dermal fillers do. Laser Genesis treatments trigger your skin’s repair processes, so your skin is renewed and restored as new skin cells form and fresh collagen is produced. When your Laser Genesis treatments are complete, you are left with healthier skin. However, over time, the benefits of Laser Genesis will fade as your skin’s natural process of cell death and collagen breakdown begins again. If you are older and your natural collagen production has slowed, you will start to see the wrinkles and lines reduced by Laser Genesis reappear. We typically recommend regular Laser Genesis treatments every 6 months to help maintain your results. Acne scars do work a little differently since the laser treatment can help get rid of old scar tissue and replace it with healthy tissue. It depends on the extent of your scarring, but with the right number of Laser Genesis treatments and a good skincare regimen, you may be able to see very long-lasting benefits for this type of concern. You should consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate your skin and help you decide if Laser Genesis is right for you. Good luck! 

Laser genesis does help stimulate collagen production which is similar to restoring the foundation on your house. However, father time does keep on ticking and at some point, you will need to shore up that foundation yet again. 

Laser Genesis helps collagen rejuvenation but no results are completely permanent.  Nothing can stop the aging process or collagen breakdow.  This type of laser can help to a certain extent.   It's safe and can get give good results if done as directed.

Good luck.
