Genesis Toning Treatment, Our Clinic's Approach?

• 1. Ensuring Treatment Density with Over 2,000 Shots > To expect effective changes across the entire face, a minimum of 2,000 shots of Genesis Toning treatment is required. Our clinic sets this as a basic standard.
• 2. Transparent Disclosure of Treatment Shot Count > After the treatment, we have a procedure to confirm the total number of shots administered with the patient. This helps build trust in the treatment.
• 3. Maintaining Appropriate Standards for Energy Intensity (Fluence) > We avoid low-intensity treatments that are unlikely to be effective. We perform treatments adhering to a minimum intensity to ensure meaningful thermal energy is delivered to the skin's dermis layer.
• 4. Customized Treatment Design for Individual Skin Concerns > We plan treatments with individual patterns and stacking methods, tailored to the patient's various concerns such as pores, redness, and skin elasticity.
• 5. Precise Techniques Based on Treatment Proficiency > We meticulously control the handpiece movement speed, irradiation direction, and laser overlap. This is designed to ensure uniform heat accumulation within the skin.
• 6. Sufficient Treatment Time and Dense Irradiation > Through personalized design and multiple overlapping passes, we ensure sufficient treatment time for the skin and perform high-density laser irradiation.
• 7. Systematic Pre- and Post-Treatment Management Process > From the skin diagnosis stage to post-treatment confirmation, all processes are conducted according to systematic procedures. This can help increase treatment satisfaction.

Reasons Why Our Clinic's Genesis Toning is Special

The results of Genesis Toning treatment can vary depending on how it was performed.

At our clinic, we go beyond mere device operation; we understand the technical principles of Genesis Toning and plan treatments based on this understanding.

1. Sufficient Energy Delivery Through Treatments of Over 2,000 Shots

Genesis Toning is a treatment that can help by delivering thermal energy to the skin's dermis layer, promoting collagen production and stabilizing blood vessels.

For treatment effectiveness, a certain level of energy must be repeatedly irradiated. Therefore, our clinic sets a minimum of 2,000 shots as the standard for treatment.

Please be informed that if fewer than 2,000 shots are administered, it may be difficult to adequately cover the entire face, and the expected results may also be limited.

2. Disclosure and Post-Treatment Verification of Shot Count

After the treatment, we directly verify the total number of laser shots actually administered with the patient.

This process can help build trust in the treatment and verify the density and qualitative aspects of the delivered energy.

3. Strict Adherence to Appropriate Fluence (Energy Intensity) Standards

Genesis Toning operates on the principle of gradually accumulating heat in the skin. If the energy intensity (fluence) is too low, sufficient energy may not reach the dermis layer, making it difficult to achieve the desired biological response.

At our clinic, we adjust energy levels considering each patient's individual skin condition, but we do not perform treatments below the minimum intensity required to expect therapeutic effects.

We aim for actual changes rather than a merely formal approach.

4. Customized Treatment Design Reflecting Individual Skin Concerns

Before treatment, our head doctor carefully examines the patient's skin together. We identify problem areas directly with a mirror and formulate a customized treatment plan based on the thermal response characteristics of those areas and the expected improvement goals.

For areas with redness (rosacea) or telangiectasia, the treatment is directed towards inducing stabilization of the vascular response in those areas.

For areas of concern like pores or fine lines, the laser is applied with multiple overlapping passes to intensify thermal stimulation.

For areas with reduced skin elasticity, stacking techniques are used to intensively induce localized responses.

5. Treatment Proficiency Derived from Extensive Experience

Genesis Toning may not achieve sufficient effects merely by moving the handpiece quickly.

At our clinic, we meticulously calculate and adjust the handpiece's movement speed, laser irradiation angle, number of overlapping shots, and the spacing between passes for treatment.

Sensitive skin areas are treated quickly and lightly,

while areas with reduced elasticity receive repeated energy delivery at a slower speed.

Rather than merely warming the skin surface, we continue with concentrated irradiation after the first pass to accumulate heat deep within the skin.

6. Sufficient Allocation of Treatment Time and Dense Treatment

The Genesis Toning performed at our clinic is not simply a treatment to fulfill a prescribed number of shots.

Since it involves overlapping irradiation tailored to the patient's skin concerns and careful energy adjustment, the actual treatment time typically exceeds 10 minutes.

This approach focuses on enhancing the completeness of the treatment.

7. Systematic Process Before and After Treatment

Before treatment, we analyze the skin condition using a Mark-Vu diagnostic device. Afterward, treatment goals are set through thorough consultation with the head doctor.

During the treatment, we continuously monitor the skin's thermal response and the patient's condition in real-time.

After the procedure, we will show you the treated area directly. At this time, we will also inform you of the total number of shots used.

We strive to make every step of the procedure a meaningful experience for our patients, from preparation to completion.

How Genesis Toning Works

Genesis Toning utilizes a long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser with a 1064nm wavelength. This laser energy is repeatedly delivered to the dermis, gradually building up a warm sensation in the treated area.

When the skin receives continuous warm stimulation without having a chance to dissipate the heat, a certain amount of heat accumulates in the dermis. This can activate fibroblasts, which are responsible for collagen production.

Fibroblasts are key cells in skin tissue, producing collagen and elastin, which determine the skin's elasticity and supportive structure.

Collagen helps increase skin density, making the tissue around pores firmer.

Elastin adds flexibility to the skin, helping sagging skin regain its original elasticity.

When these components are actively produced, you can expect improved pores, diminished fine wrinkles, and a smoother skin texture.

This thermal stimulation also affects the microvessels in the dermis.

Low thermal stimulation, which does not directly damage blood vessels, is repeatedly delivered. This can gradually stabilize the hyper-reactivity of capillaries and help alleviate symptoms such as flushing or skin heat.

Specifically, Genesis Toning can be a significant approach to improving post-acne red marks (PIE).

Red acne marks differ from typical hyperpigmentation. They occur due to expanded microvessels in the dermis or residual minor inflammatory reactions.

Therefore, it is a problem that is not easily resolved with simple whitening treatments, exfoliation, or a single vascular laser procedure.

The repeated warm stimulation of Genesis Toning helps reduce vascular wall reactions in the red mark area and suppress the activity of inflammation-inducing substances (e.g., histamine, prostaglandins).

Additionally, the excessive activation of immune cells within the dermis is gradually regulated, which can improve the skin's ability to react less sensitively to external stimuli.

Therefore, Genesis Toning can be described as a treatment that focuses on alleviating the tendency for skin redness and generally soothing the skin, rather than a procedure that makes red marks disappear in a short time.

This method can also be considered with less burden by individuals with sensitive skin or those who have experienced hyperpigmentation after strong vascular treatments in the past.

This phenomenon of heat gradually accumulating in the skin is called 'thermal stacking.' This method allows for the expectation of functional structural improvement in the dermis without strong stimulation to the epidermis or exfoliation.

Expected Effects of Genesis Toning

Pore Improvement

As collagen production in the dermis becomes active, skin elasticity is restored, and you can expect a gradual improvement in enlarged pores.

Skin Texture & Fine Wrinkle Management

As the skin's internal structure finds balance, fine wrinkles and rough skin texture become smoother, and improved adhesion is expected, allowing makeup to apply better.

Soothing Redness and Facial Heat Sensation

By regulating excessively dilated blood vessels and calming minor inflammatory reactions, it can help alleviate recurrent redness or heat sensation symptoms.

Management of Post-Acne Red Marks (PIE)

Red marks caused by microvascular issues, rather than hyperpigmentation, can be expected to gradually lighten through gentle thermal stimulation.

Enhanced Skin Elasticity

As fibroblasts in the dermis are activated, the skin becomes firmer, which can help restore natural elasticity.

Even Skin Tone & Healthy Glow

As circulation in the dermis improves, dull skin tone brightens, and you can expect a healthy, natural glow.

Genesis Toning may be considered for those who:

Feel their pores appear enlarged and skin elasticity has decreased

Have sensitive skin that easily reddens due to emotional changes or temperature differences

Have red marks that persist long after acne has subsided

Have uneven skin texture and noticeable fine wrinkles

Wish to comfortably improve their skin condition without strong irritation

Are considering a laser procedure that is less burdensome to combine with other treatments like skin boosters

Genesis Toning, recommended frequency:

Genesis Toning does not require a separate recovery period, making it less burdensome even with shorter treatment intervals.

Generally Recommended Treatment Intervals

For the initial treatment course, you may consider 10 or more sessions at 1-2 week intervals.

Treatment Intervals Based on Concerns and Issues

For pore or fine wrinkle reduction, consider 10 sessions at 1-week intervals.

For redness or PIE (Post-Inflammatory Erythema) management, 10 sessions at 1-2 week intervals are often performed.

For skin tone improvement, you may consider about 10 sessions at 1-2 week intervals.

Maintenance Treatments

After completing the main treatment phases, maintenance treatments at 2-3 week intervals can stably manage collagen and blood vessels.

How much pain is involved during Genesis Toning treatment?

Genesis Toning treatment is generally not very painful.

However, if you feel no sensation during the treatment, it might mean that the laser's thermal energy has not been sufficiently delivered to the dermal layer.

For effective treatment, it is considered that appropriate thermal energy has accumulated in the dermal layer if your skin feels warm inside during the treatment, or if you occasionally feel localized warmth.
