LASER GENESIS
Treatment of Wrinkles and Redness, Management of Large Pores and Skin Texture
Laser Genesis skin therapy is an innovative technologically advanced way to promote vibrant and healthy looking skin in men and women. Now you can have a youthful appearance by treating those conditions that are typically associated with premature signs of aging and sun damage, such as excessive redness, large pores, uneven texture, and fine-line wrinkles. The Laser Genesis procedure has been scientifically proven to produce new collagen.
What does it do?
Laser Genesis does something unique to the skin rejuvenation area. It is proven to not only minimise fine lines but also to reduce large pores, uneven, crepe-paper type or pebbled skin texture and overall redness and flushing.
How does it work?
We use a cosmetic laser to gently heat the skin below the surface. This “healthy heat” stimulates the body’s own natural healing response and the texture of your skin literally becomes smoother. Depending on what you are having treated, pores get smaller, lines are decreased as your underlying collagen is refreshed and the colour of your skin will even out. We wil discuss this thoroughly when you come in for your consultation.
How many treatments will I need?
People and conditions will vary in the way they respond, based on their skin biology. Typically we recommend a series of four to six treatments to optimise results.
How long does each treatment take?
Each treatment session takes approximately 30 minutes.
What does it feel like?
Laser Genesis is very comfortable; it’s sometimes called the warm laser facial. You will feel a warming sensation on your skin s the handpiece is slowly moved back and forth about half-inch above your skin.
What can I expect afterwards?
You can return to normal activities immediately. You may be flushed from the heat but that will disappear within a few hours of treatment. Individual treatment results are often subtle but the overall effect over time with multiple treatments can be quite dramatic.
Is it safe?
Yes! Hundreds of thousands of Laser Genesis treatments have been done to date with no adverse effects. As with all medical procedures, there is a slight degree of risk, and we will discuss this with you thoroughly when you come in for a consultation.
How much does it cost?
If you’d like to make an appointment for a consultation, we can give you a specific idea as to the number of treatments and the price. We do offer various payment plans and if you choose to go ahead with treatment, we will subtract the consultation fee from the treatment fees.
Can anyone have it done?
Yes. Adults of all ages and all skin types can benefit from Laser Genesis and can have it done year round. We can even treat tanned skin.

What does it do?
The LimeLight Facial is very effective for improving uneven skin tone. It can treat individual pigment changes like brown age spots; it can also treat widespread blotchiness, freckles, skin redness and individual fine veins.
How does it work?
The LimeLight Facial uses light to heat the pigment and blood in the top layer of your skin to reduce discolouration and promote a more even skin tone.
How is your treatment different from other options?
The LimeLight Facial treats specific areas without abrading the skin’s surface. There is no need to interrupt your normal routine.
How many treatments will I need?
It depends on what you are having treated. Typically three to five treatments can provide significant clearance. When you come in for your consultation, we will give you information tailored to you particular needs and desires.
How long does each treatment take?
It varies according to the size of area you are having treated, but one treatment typically ranges from 5 to 30 minutes.
What does it feel like?
You will feel a series of brief pinches, similar to a rubber band snapping, but no local anaesthesia or pain medication is necessary.
What can I expect afterwards?
If you have specific spots treated they will darken immediately and begin to flake off naturally within one to three weeks to reveal clearer skin. If you have general redness or fine veins treated, the blush will gradually lighten over three to five treatments.
Is it permanent?
Over time new spots may appear, as a result of new sun exposure and the ongoing ageing process. These too can be removed.
Is it safe?
Yes, the LimeLight Facial is safe. As with all medical procedures there is a slight degree of risk, and we will discuss this with you thoroughly when you come in for a consultation.
How much does it cost?
This depends on the size and the nature of what you’re having treated. If you’d like to make an appointment for a consultation, we can give you a specific idea as to the number of treatments and the price. If you choose to go ahead with treatment, we will subtract the consultation fee from the treatment fees.
Can anyone have it done?
Anyone with a light to medium colour skin may be a candidate for the LimeLight Facial, but those with darker skin tones may not. We will assess your particular skin type and let you know if you’re a candidate at the time of your consultation.

What does it do?
Titan is a light-based treatment we use to improve skin tone and fitness. The areas we most often treat include the cheeks, jawline, under the chin and the abdomen and the underside of the upper arms.
How does it work?
We use a sophisticated non-laser infrared light to gently heat the supportive tissue within the skin. Titan has been specifically proven to lay down new collagen therefore improving the firmness of the skin.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of treatments varies according to the precise condition and responsiveness of your skin but it typically ranges from one to four treatments over a few months. At your consultation, we can discuss this in detail and recommend a treatment program that’s right for you.
How long does each treatment take?
The time will vary according to whether you are treating a full face, a neck or both, but a safe estimate is 60 minutes.
What does it feel like?
Patients are able to tolerate treatments without the use of any anaesthesia, numbing creams, or medication. There may be a few quick moments of areas of particular discomfort. Some patients choose to take panadol prior to treatment, but most patients do well without any pain medication.
What can I expect afterwards?
There may be some flushing from the heat and possibly some very slight swelling, but can return to normal activities right away. Results can b subtle at first but over the course of 6 months, the results continue to improve.
For how long do the results last?
Our patients are still enjoying the benefits of Titan after one to two years, but because the skin will continue to age, they may opt for a yearly maintenance treatment.
Is it safe?
Yes. Tens of thousands of Titan treatments have done to date. As with all medical procedures there is a slight degree of risk and we will discuss this with you thoroughly when you come in for your consultation.
How much does it cost?
If you’d like to make an appointment for a consultation, we can give you an idea as to the number of treatments and the specific price. We do offer various payment plans. If you choose to go ahead with the treatment, we will subtract the consultation fee from the treatment fees.
Can anyone have it done?
Typically any adult who wants to have firmer skin, and who understand that this isn’t a replacement for a face lift, can be a candidate for Titan. Patients of any skin type will benefit from Titan.
