Hydragenesis
HydraGenesis is a dual treatment that combines the resurfacing power of the HydraFacial with the collagen-stimulating benefits of Laser Genesis. Both of these treatments have been known to aid in helping fine lines, wrinkles, evening texture, minimizing pores, and diminishing redness but one is working mostly on the surface of the skin, while the other is getting into the deeper layers and leaving a more lasting effect.
Our advanced HydraGenesis facial brings together HydraFacial advanced cleansing with peel, extraction, boosters and hydration plus the Laser Genesis.
Clients often describe the HydraGenesis treatment as relaxing and therapeutic. The laser provides a warming sensation to the skin similar to the sensation one feels when standing near a fire. There is no numbing required. There is no downtime with the HydraGenesis. At the most, there may be some mild redness to the skin that should resolve within an hour. Patients will be able to go back to work immediately after the treatment.

By targeting both the surface and deeper layers of the skin, HydraGenesis can effectively treat a broad range of skin concerns, including:

- Hydration: Dry or dehydrated skin.
HydraFacial (Surface Resurfacing & Hydration)
This multi-step portion of the treatment uses a unique vortex-fusion technology to work on the skin’s surface:
- Cleansing & Exfoliation: Gently removes dead skin cells.
- Acid Peel: A mild solution is applied to loosen debris and impurities in the pores.
- Extraction: A gentle vacuum device is used to painlessly remove impurities from deep within the pores.
- Hydration & Fusion: Antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and peptides are infused into the skin to hydrate, plump, and protect.
Laser Genesis (Deep Collagen Stimulation)
This non-invasive laser component follows the HydraFacial and is key for long-term results:
- Heating the Dermis: The laser gently heats the deeper layers of the skin using micro-pulses of light.
- Collagen Production: This heat stimulates the natural production of new collagen and elastin fibers, which helps to firm, tighten, and smooth the skin.
- Tone Improvement: The heat also helps to diffuse redness, reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, and minimize pigmentation irregularities.
