The One Treatment Dr Ben Won’t Live Without – And Why Your Skin Will Thank You for It

What if you could keep your skin in its best possible condition… and never let it slide back?

Why Laser Genesis Is Ideal for Skin Maintenance & Prevention

Skin ageing doesn’t happen overnight, it’s a slow drift. Fine lines creep in. Redness lingers longer than it should. That luminous glow you used to have? It starts to fade.

Laser Genesis is the reset button you can press before things go too far.

  • Gentle yet powerful: Stimulates collagen without breaking the skin’s surface.
  • No downtime: Back to work, lunch, or life immediately after.
  • Year-round benefits: Ideal for Edinburgh’s temperamental climate.

Instead of waiting for visible ageing to set in, preventative treatments keep the skin’s foundation strong. Regular sessions quietly protect against future sagging, dullness, and uneven tone, long before they become your mirror’s daily reminder.

How Dr Ben Uses Laser Genesis in His Routine

Dr Ben doesn’t see Laser Genesis as a “once in a while” luxury. For him, and his loyal patients, it’s a cornerstone of skin health.

  • Monthly or seasonal: Some patients come in every 4,6 weeks, others use it as a quarterly refresh.
  • Tailored intensity: Adjusted to your skin’s unique needs, not a one-size-fits-all schedule.
  • Long-game strategy: Each session builds on the last, layering up your skin’s strength and clarity.

Think of it like dental hygiene, you wouldn’t skip brushing just because your teeth “look fine” right now.

Laser Genesis Benefits: Redness, Texture, Glow, and More

When a treatment feels like a spa experience but works like advanced medical tech, you know you’re onto something good.

Key benefits:

  • Redness reduction – Targets microvascular irregularities, perfect for rosacea-prone skin.
  • Smoother texture – Minimises pores and softens fine lines.
  • Natural radiance – Encourages fresh, even skin tone.
  • Progressive results – Each treatment strengthens your skin’s collagen network.

And because there’s no recovery period, it slips effortlessly into your schedule.

Frequently Asked: Laser Genesis vs Other Skin Rejuvenation Treatments

Confused about where Laser Genesis sits among all the other skin treatments? You’re not alone.

  • Compared to Microneedling: Laser Genesis is better for redness and prevention. Microneedling targets deeper texture changes and scarring.
  • Compared to CO2 Laser: CO2 is a heavy hitter for resurfacing, but comes with downtime. Laser Genesis is gentle, buildable, and barrier-friendly.
  • Stacking treatments: Works brilliantly alongside injectables, peels, or targeted facials.

What Does Laser Genesis Treat in Edinburgh?

If you’re wondering what it can actually do for your skin:

  • Persistent redness
  • Early fine lines
  • Uneven tone
  • Enlarged pores
  • Post-acne marks

It’s a skin rejuvenation Edinburgh staple because it works on multiple concerns in a single session.

FAQS

How Often Should You Book Maintenance Sessions?

For most, a course of 4-6 treatments (spaced 2-4 weeks apart) lays the foundation. After that:

  • Maintenance every 6-8 weeks keeps results on track.
  • Event prep: Book 1 week before for a camera-ready glow.

Is Laser Genesis Better Than Microneedling?

Better for redness? Yes.


Better for deeper scarring?

Not quite,that’s where microneedling wins.

Many patients alternate between the two, creating a perfect synergy for prevention and correction.

How Long Does Laser Genesis Last?

  • Glow: Lasts weeks after a single treatment.
  • Structural results: With regular sessions, the benefits compound for months and years.

Is Laser Genesis the Same as CO2 Laser?

Absolutely not. Think of it this way:

  • CO2: Aggressive resurfacing, more dramatic changes, longer recovery.
  • Laser Genesis: Gentle, non-ablative, buildable over time.

Is Laser Genesis Safe for All Skin Types?

Yes. Even rosacea-prone and sensitive skin can benefit. It’s one of the safest skin laser treatments in Edinburgh across all Fitzpatrick skin tones.
