ADVANCED LIGHT-BASED SKIN SOLUTIONS

 Laser Genesis is a non-invasive laser treatment that utilizes a near-infrared 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength to gently heat the upper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production while keeping the skin's surface intact. This innovative laser genesis treatment not only offers cosmetic advantages, such as smoothing fine lines and enhancing overall skin texture, but it also has recognized medical applications. It's often employed as one of the effective skin cancer treatment options, specifically for addressing rosacea by targeting the dilated blood vessels that cause facial redness and flushing. Additionally, it is indicated for the coagulation of benign vascular lesions, including telangiectasias, spider veins, and port wine stains. Treatments are quick, require no downtime, and are suitable for a wide range of skin types. 

Beyond its well-known cosmetic uses, CO₂ laser skin rejuvenation also plays a significant role in medical dermatology. It can enhance the absorption of topical medications applied to sun-damaged skin, and studies indicate that it may improve treatment outcomes when integrated with other therapies for actinic keratoses and skin cancer treatment options. 

CO2 laser treatment uses controlled laser energy to remove or resurface selected layers of skin. Depending on the condition being treated, the laser can be used in different settings and depths.

At Bendigo Skin Doctors, CO2 laser may be considered for selected patients for the treatment of actinic keratoses (solar keratoses), actinic cheilitis of the lip, areas of significant sun damage, and for cosmetic skin resurfacing.
