What is Rosacea?
Rosacea is a skin condition that affects adults. It manifests as a red rash across the cheeks and nose, and is worsened by sun exposure, alcohol and diet. Rosacea is chronic and cannot be 'cured' with any laser or light source, however its appearance can be improved.
Traditional medicine treats this condition with oral antibiotics long term, holistic practitioners, focus on the correct diet, keeping the gut and immune system balanced, supplementation, and helping digestion, has to give you the best chance of keeping this condition at bay, and we here at the Vitenas Skin Institute can work in combination with either of these therapies by implementing Laser Genesis into the treatment.
What is Laser Genesis?
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.
Laser Genesis also treats the deep redness that Intense Pulsed Light treatments do not reach.

The Laser Genesis difference
The Laser Genesis procedure utilizes non-invasive laser technology to safely, discretely and effectively treat fine-line wrinkles, diffuse excessive redness and help manage large pores, uneven skin texture, and scars. You can expect to see subtle yet consistent results after each treatment, without unwanted side effects such as bruising or excessive skin irritation. Treatments can be performed in a relaxed, comfortable manner without the use of topical anesthetics or gel.
How does Laser Genesis work?
By gently heating the upper dermis well below your skin’s surface, Laser Genesis stimulates collagen re-growth. Additional heat is generated in dilated capillaries to reduce redness.
How many treatments will I need?
The treatment results are often subtle. On average, you may require four to six treatments in order to achieve optimal results. Every patient’s condition and needs vary. For more information about your expected results or the number of treatments necessary, consult with Dr. Vitenas or his aesthetician, Sharon

What are the possible side effects?
Although most patients report few if any side effects, the most common is a slight redness that disappears within a few hours of treatment.
What kind of textural improvements can you expect with Laser Genesis skin therapy?
Over the course of four to five treatments, Laser Genesis can help restore the skin's youthful glow and appearance by smoothing out uneven texture caused by aging, sun damage or scars. You will see a more even, healthy complexion as large pores are reduced in size, and minor imperfections are diminished. The individual treatment results are subtle, but the overall effect of multiple treatments can be quite dramatic. Laser Genesis is also ideal for dark skinned and Asian faces that cannot tolerate the pigmentation problems of Intense Pulsed light treatments, this technology is suitable for all skin types, and is painless!
