Laser Genesis Facial

Healthier and more resilient skin

At Shellharbour Skin, our Laser Genesis Facial is a non-invasive, no-downtime treatment designed to support smoother texture, refined tone, and a brighter complexion.

This facial pairs gentle exfoliation and enzymatic resurfacing with the collagen-stimulating power of Laser Genesis, finishing with LED light to enhance skin repair and calm any post-laser warmth.

Treatment time: 60minutes 
Downtime: Minimal – mild warmth or redness may occur for a few hours

What to Expect

Each Laser Genesis Facial is performed using clinically validated steps to ensure comfort, safety, and visible freshness.

Double Cleanse – A deep double cleanse removes impurities, excess oil, and debris to prepare the skin for treatment.

Dermaplane or Enzyme Mask – Your Dermal Clinician will choose one of the following steps based on your skin type, texture, and current concerns:

Dermaplane – Using a sterile surgical blade, your clinician gently removes the superficial layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (commonly known as “peach fuzz”). This reveals a smoother surface, enhances natural radiance, and allows the laser energy to be distributed more evenly across the face. Dermaplaning also promotes a cleaner, more refined base for makeup and skincare absorption.

OR

Enzyme Mask – A professional-grade enzymatic exfoliant is applied to dissolve surface buildup and refine texture, supporting even light diffusion and optimal laser absorption.

Full-Face Laser Genesis – The Laser Genesis device emits micro-pulses of non-ablative 1064 nm laser energy, heating the dermis to support collagen regeneration and diffuse redness.

You’ll feel a comfortable, gentle warmth as your skin’s deeper layers are stimulated.

LED Light Therapy – The treatment concludes with LED light to calm the skin, enhance circulation, and promote post-laser recovery.

Finishing Products – Hydrating and barrier-restoring products are applied, including broad-spectrum SPF for post-treatment protection.

Benefits

While results vary, the Laser Genesis Facial is designed to:

• Support collagen production and dermal renewal
• Refine texture and improve smoothness
• Reduce redness and diffuse uneven tone
• Brighten the overall complexion
• Leave the skin feeling calm, fresh, and revitalised

Who It’s For

This treatment is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive or redness-prone skin.

It is often discussed for:

• Diffuse redness or visible capillaries
• Uneven texture or mild scarring
• Early fine lines or dullness
• Maintenance of skin health

A consultation prior to treatment ensures your skin is prepared appropriately and confirms safety for your unique skin profile.

Potential Risks & Considerations

Laser Genesis is considered low-risk when performed by trained clinicians.

• Possible short-term effects may include temporary redness, warmth, or mild sensitivity.
• Rarely, slight swelling or dryness may occur.

A pre-treatment consultation ensures safety, reviews medical history, and confirms appropriate laser parameters.

Individual experiences and outcomes vary.

Signature HydraFacial + Laser Genesis

What to Expect

Laser Genesis – Following HydraFacial, the 1064 nm laser delivers gentle micro-pulses of energy to the dermis. This non-invasive heat stimulates collagen renewal, refines texture, and calms redness.

• Deeply cleanse and hydrate the skin

• Early textural changes or fine lines
• Mild redness or diffuse flushing
• Dehydrated or congested skin needing a healthy glow

A consultation ensures the sequence, energy settings, and peel level are safe for your skin type.

Post-Treatment Care

After treatment, mild warmth or pinkness may occur and generally settles within hours.

To support recovery:

• Avoid active skincare (retinol, acids, exfoliants) for 3–5 days
• Keep the skin hydrated with gentle moisturisers
• Avoid excessive heat and exercise for 24 hours
• Apply SPF daily to maintain results

Your clinician will provide personalised aftercare instructions and home-care recommendations.

Potential Risks & Considerations

When performed by trained professionals, both HydraFacial and Laser Genesis are considered low-risk.

Possible short-term effects include mild redness, warmth, or sensitivity.
Rarely, dryness or light flaking may occur.

Your clinician will review your medical and skincare history to ensure safety and correct sequencing.
