The 2D Laser Facial is a cutting-edge treatment that combines the benefits of two powerful skin rejuvenation technologies. It begins with utilising Cutera®'s signature Laser Genesis treatment to stimulate collagen production, treat underlying inflammation, reduce pore size and improve the overall skin texture.
Following the Laser Genesis, your treatment is amplified with either a Collagen Induction Therapy Skin Needling or a IPL Limelight, depending on your specific skin concerns. The CIT Skin Needling uses micro-needling to create fractionated injury to the skins tissue further boosting collagen production, treating acne & depressed scarring including PIH (Post Inflammatory Pigmentation - red/purple acne scars) while the Limelight employs Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) to address pigmentation and vascular concerns. This tailored approach ensures comprehensive skin rejuvenation and targeted problem-solving.

how does a 2D laser facial work?
The 2D Laser Facial begins with the Laser Genesis treatment, which gently heats the dermis to stimulate collagen production, treat underlying inflammation, reduce pore size and improve the overall skin texture and quality.
This is followed by either:
CIT Skin Needling: Using micro-needling to create controlled micro-injuries, further stimulating collagen production, smoothing fine lines ad wrinkles, treating acne & depressed scarring including PIH and enhancing skin texture.
IPL Limelight: Employing IPL technology to target pigmented and vascular lesions, evening out skin tone and reducing redness.
Both options conclude with a prescription peel and customised mask tailored to your skin's needs, ensuring a comprehensive treatment approach.
