Xeo Plus Laser: IPL & Laser Genesis™
Harness the power of the Cutera Xeo Plus platform for comprehensive skin rejuvenation at Advanced Skin MedSpa in Fishkill, NY. This versatile laser system delivers both Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) for pigmentation and vascular correction and Laser Genesis™ for collagen renewal and redness reduction — two proven modalities in one treatment session for dramatic, no-downtime results.
What Is Laser Genesis?
Laser Genesis is a non-ablative Nd:YAG laser treatment that gently heats the upper dermis to stimulate collagen regrowth and constrict dilated blood vessels. Unlike ablative lasers that remove layers of skin, Laser Genesis works beneath the surface without disrupting the epidermis—meaning there are no wounds, no peeling, and no downtime. The treatment builds healthier, more resilient skin through a gentle but effective thermal stimulation that compounds with each session.
The Nd:YAG wavelength used in Laser Genesis is uniquely suited to address two of the most common skin concerns simultaneously: textural irregularities and diffuse redness. By delivering thousands of micro-pulses of laser energy into the papillary dermis, the treatment stimulates fibroblast activity and new collagen formation while also targeting the tiny blood vessels responsible for redness, rosacea-like flushing, and broken capillaries. The result is a progressive smoothing, firming, and evening of the skin that becomes more apparent with each successive treatment.
At Advanced Skin MedSpa in Fishkill, NY, Laser Genesis is one of our most versatile and patient-favorite treatments—beloved for its comfortable experience, lack of downtime, and the consistent, beautiful results it delivers over a treatment series.
Treatment Areas and Conditions Addressed
Laser Genesis in the Hudson Valley is available for the face, neck, and chest—the three areas most commonly affected by aging, sun damage, and redness. Facial treatments address fine lines, enlarged pores, diffuse redness, rosacea, uneven texture, and early signs of aging. Neck treatments target the horizontal lines, crepey texture, and redness that develop in this delicate, frequently sun-exposed area. Chest and décolletage treatments improve the mottled redness, sun spots, and textural changes that accumulate on this often-neglected area.
Laser Genesis is particularly effective for patients dealing with persistent redness, facial flushing, and rosacea—conditions where the tiny blood vessels in the skin become chronically dilated. The gentle thermal energy constricts these vessels over a series of treatments, producing a visibly calmer, more even complexion without the aggressive approach of vascular lasers.
Pore refinement is another standout benefit of Laser Genesis. As new collagen forms in the papillary dermis around the pore openings, the skin becomes thicker and more structured, which visually minimizes pore size. Patients who have struggled with enlarged pores that do not respond to topical products often find that a series of Laser Genesis treatments provides the improvement they have been seeking. The treatment also helps soften the appearance of fine scars and mild acne scarring over time.
Your Laser Genesis Experience
One of the most appealing aspects of Laser Genesis is the treatment experience itself. No topical numbing is required. The laser handpiece is held above the skin—not in contact with it—and moved in a continuous sweeping motion across the treatment area. Patients describe the sensation as a gentle, warm, showering of heat across the skin, similar to the feeling of sunlight on a warm day. Many patients find the experience genuinely relaxing.
A single treatment session takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes for the face, with additional time for the neck or chest. There is no redness, swelling, peeling, or recovery period. The skin may appear slightly flushed for 30 minutes to an hour after treatment, but this resolves quickly. Patients can apply makeup immediately and return to all normal activities—including exercise—right away. This makes Laser Genesis an ideal lunchtime treatment that fits seamlessly into even the busiest schedule.
Results from Laser Genesis are cumulative and progressive. While some patients notice a subtle glow and smoother texture after their first session, the most significant improvements develop over a series of four to six treatments spaced two to four weeks apart. Each session builds upon the last, progressively improving collagen density, pore size, redness, and overall skin quality. Maintenance treatments every four to eight weeks help preserve the results and continue the collagen-building process. Our patients at our Fishkill, NY medspa often describe Laser Genesis as the foundation of their skin health program.

Frequently Asked Questions
A series of four to six treatments spaced two to four weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. After completing the initial series, maintenance treatments every four to eight weeks help sustain the improvements and continue building collagen. Results are cumulative, so each session adds to the benefits of the previous ones. Some patients with more significant redness or textural concerns may benefit from additional sessions.
Yes, Laser Genesis is one of the most effective treatments for managing rosacea-related redness and flushing. The gentle thermal energy gradually constricts the dilated blood vessels that cause persistent redness, while the collagen stimulation strengthens the skin's structure. Many rosacea patients find that a series of Laser Genesis treatments significantly reduces baseline redness, decreases the frequency and severity of flushing episodes, and improves overall skin quality.
Absolutely. Laser Genesis pairs exceptionally well with other treatments and is often used as part of a comprehensive skin health program. It is commonly combined with Pico Genesis for pigmentation correction, with microneedling for enhanced collagen stimulation, and with medical-grade skincare for ongoing maintenance. Because it has no downtime, it can often be performed on the same day as certain other treatments.
The Nd:YAG wavelength used in Laser Genesis has a strong safety profile across a wide range of skin types, including darker skin tones. However, the best approach is always an individual assessment. During your consultation at our Fishkill, NY location, we will evaluate your skin type, concerns, and medical history to confirm that Laser Genesis is the optimal treatment for you.
Many patients notice a subtle healthy glow and smoother texture after their first treatment. However, the primary benefits of Laser Genesis—including meaningful pore refinement, redness reduction, and improved firmness—develop progressively over the course of the treatment series. The most significant visible improvement typically becomes apparent after three to four sessions as new collagen matures and blood vessel changes take effect.
