Step 1 – Laser Genesis

Laser Genesis gently heats the upper dermis to stimulate collagen production, improve microcirculation, and reduce redness. Over time, it softens fine lines, smooths uneven texture, and leaves the skin looking healthy and refreshed.

Step 2 – Limelight IPL

Limelight IPL uses targeted pulses of light to break down pigmentation, reduce redness, and even out skin tone. Pigmented spots often darken slightly before flaking away, revealing clearer, more uniform skin underneath.

By combining these treatments, we can address both deep and surface-level concerns in a single appointment, maximising results and reducing the need for separate sessions.

Many clients notice their skin looks fresher, less inflamed and more radiant within a few days of the first session. Pigmentation improvements and collagen stimulation continue to develop over the following weeks, especially when having a course of treatments.

While you may see improvements after just one treatment, most clients achieve optimal results with a course of 3–6 sessions, spaced about 4 weeks apart. We’ll create a personalised plan during your consultation.

The immediate glow can last for several weeks, while deeper improvements in redness, pigmentation and texture build over a course of treatments and can last for months. Maintenance sessions every few months will help keep your results at their best.

It’s suitable for lighter skin types (Fitzpatrick I–III) with concerns such as redness, pigmentation, or early signs of ageing. It’s not recommended for darker skin tones, very sensitive or reactive skin, or for anyone pregnant or breastfeeding. A consultation and patch test will confirm suitability.

Laser Genesis feels warm and relaxing – often compared to the gentle heat of the sun. Limelight IPL feels like a quick flick or snap on the skin, but is very manageable thanks to the cooling tip on the device.

If you’re new to the treatment, allow at least 2 weeks before a big event so your skin has time to settle and show its best results. If you’re having regular sessions, a top-up a week or so beforehand can give you a beautiful boost.

Most people leave with only a light flush, which usually fades within a few hours. Any pigmentation may darken slightly before naturally flaking away, but this is subtle and can be covered with makeup from the next day. You won’t look “done” – just like you on your best skin day, with less redness, a calmer complexion, and a more even tone.

Yes – it works well alongside treatments such as skin boosters, microneedling and chemical peels. We’ll just ensure they’re scheduled appropriately, as we don’t perform them on the same day.

Most people experience only mild, short-lived effects such as slight redness, subtle swelling, or temporary darkening of pigmentation as it lifts to the surface – all normal signs your skin is responding well. In rare cases, laser and IPL treatments can cause blistering, burns, or changes in pigmentation, but this is uncommon, and our thorough consultation, patch testing, and careful settings are all designed to minimise any risk.

We recommend avoiding sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tan for at least 4 weeks before your appointment. Pause active skincare (like retinoids and exfoliating acids) for 3–5 days beforehand. We’ll give you full pre-care instructions during your consultation.

If you have hair growth in the area to be treated, this should be shaved 24 hours before your treatment. 

Avoid heat (hot showers, saunas, strenuous exercise) for 24–48 hours, and steer clear of active skincare for at least 3 days. Always wear SPF 30+ daily, avoid picking at flaking pigmentation, and keep your skin well hydrated with a gentle moisturiser.
