This treatment can be used to improve the appearance of laxity, irregular texture, large pores, wrinkles and scars.
Very thin, medical-grade needles create tiny, microscopic injuries while delivering radio waves deep in the skin. This gives a uniform warming effect to the deep tissue to prompt your body’s natural healing response and helps to stimulate new collagen fibers to grow, leading to significant improvement to skin quality and texture.
A: A numbing cream will be applied an hour prior to the treatment to maximize your comfort level but your physician will discuss with you the most appropriate methods to alleviate any discomfort. You will feel heat and some pressure. Compared with CO2 lasers, many find Genius much more tolerable.
There is an initial redness and swelling which substantially subsides after 24-36 hours. It can take up to a week for this to completely resolve. Most people resume normal activities within 48 hours.
Yes, this treatment is safe for all skin types. Tanned skin is okay to treat, however, we cannot treat sunburned skin. We ask that you avoid actively tanning the treatment area 2 weeks prior to maximize safety and results.
Depending on the area being treated, treatment can take as little as 15 minutes and up to an hour (allow an additional hour for numbing). Your physician will discuss your goals which will determine the length and number of treatments you will need. Many see results after just 1 treatment but it typically takes 3 treatments spaced 6-8 week apart to get optimal results as opposed to 6 treatments as with many other treatments.
You can expect to see some changes as soon as a day or two after the procedure. However, your body will continue to rebuild the collagen and elastin for several weeks after that, so you will see improvement over the next six months.
Unlike many other procedures, Genius has long lasting results since it is your own body that is at work. The effects could last for years.

Over 10 years of skin care experience. Best acne clinic in NYC
I have been battling acne for the last 18 years. I have tried every single antibiotic, medication, crème, soap, topical, etc. you name it. I did see some results that I was actually pleased with while on Accutane/Isotretinoin.

I came in for a scars consultation, and Alexandra told me I didn't need aggressive treatments like lasers because my scarring wasn’t severe or old. She recommended PRP or microneedling with exosomes, which sounded best for my situation. I ended up choosing PRP, and it worked well for my scars. My pores are now smaller and tighter.
I have had the most amazing experience since I started the Acne Treatment Program with Veronika 2 months ago! My face is almost flawless but beyond that I have developed a great friendship with her.
