How the Red Carpet Facial Works
The Red Carpet Facial combines two complementary treatments:
- SkinCeuticals® Light Peel: A customized peel helps gently exfoliate the skin and improve the appearance of dullness and uneven pigmentation. Formulated with ingredients such as lactic acid and niacin, the peel helps promote a smoother, brighter-looking complexion.
- Laser Genesis: This gentle laser treatment works beneath the surface of the skin to support collagen production while helping improve the appearance of redness, discoloration, and uneven skin tone.
Together, these treatments provide a comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation, helping your complexion look smoother, brighter, more even, and refreshed.

The Laser Genesis treatment is a precise skincare procedure that treats at a predetermined temperature and depth for the best possible results. This treatment works to induce the production of collagen for improved skincare results. Say goodbye to wrinkles and fine lines.
This treatment also utilizes a laser to help tighten blood vessels to erase the appearance of spider veins. It also treats rosacea and redness in the skin.
The Laser Genesis can also reduce acne scarring when paired with the SkinCeuticals light peel.
SkinCeuticals isn’t some underground, unknown brand. Their results speak for themselves, so we’re more than confident in their custom skincare treatments, like peels and facials. When you meet with a member of the Dream Spa Medical team, they’ll take the time to look over your skin, and they’ll ask you questions about your condition. Then, we can get started creating your customized SkinCeuticals peel.
We love the Red Carpet facial because it isn’t overly harsh, and it doesn’t irritate skin. As a result of the gentle nature of this treatment, you don’t have to worry about long downtimes. There will be some slight redness, but no peeling. We call this treatment the “Red Carpet” because patients often schedule this facial to look their best for an important public event or gathering.
You’re in good hands with our highly-trained skin care team, so you won’t have to worry about being treated by an inexperienced novice. They will guide you every step of the way.
The facials that we offer at Dream Spa Medical can help treat conditions like:
- Environmental damage
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Sagging and drooping skin
- Insufficient volume
- Rough texture
- Much more!
Pre- & Post-Care Instructions for a Red Carpet Facial in Canton
- Avoid waxing, bleaching, or depilatory use 4 days prior to your appointment.
- If you are prone to Herpes Labialis outbreaks, we suggest pre-treating with an antiviral medication for 2 days leading up to your treatment and 2 days post-treatment. Dream Spa Medical is happy to provide you with a prescription for this medication, assuming that you are a candidate for this prescription.
- If your skin tends to be more on the sensitive side, it is best to avoid using your active ingredients, such as acids, retinols, or topical prescriptions, 2 to 4 days prior to your appointment. The exception to this would be if you are using our suggested Environ Vitamin A treatment cream or serum (Youth Essentia A or Skin Essentia A). These products should always be used leading up to your treatment.
- Women who are pregnant should not receive laser treatment. If you are nursing and would like to pursue treatment, we ask that you consult your PCP for clearance.
- Avoid direct sun exposure & tanning beds for 2 weeks prior to your appointment.
- Please avoid using self-tanners for 2 weeks prior to your appointment, specifically in the area to be treated. If you have used self-tanner outside of the 2 week timeframe, we ask that you please exfoliate the area to ensure no remnants of the product are left in the area to be treated. The self-tanner could compromise your treatment, as the laser cannot distinguish between self-tanner and melanin (a common target for all laser wavelengths); therefore, the laser may not reach its intended target. More importantly, the laser energy could burn the surface of the skin since the laser is targeting the “tanned area” instead of the intended treatment area.
- Your provider can help guide you on your specific products and make recommendations on what to avoid, but as a general rule, active ingredients such as acids (glycolic, salicylic, etc.), retinol products (Rx or over-the-counter), or topical prescriptions, such as antibiotic or steroid creams, should be avoided 7 days prior to your appointment. The exception to this would be if you are using our suggested Environ Vitamin A treatment cream or serum (Youth Essentia A or Skin Essentia A). These products should always be used leading up to your treatment.
- Please inform us of any tattoos or permanent makeup in the treatment area. We want to be sure to avoid treating near any ink, as the laser may disturb or discolor the area.
- For our patients who have dark/coarse hair in the area to be treated, we ask that you please shave the day of your appointment.
- If you are prone to Herpes Labialis outbreaks, we suggest pretreating with an antiviral medication for 2 days prior to your treatment and 2 days post-treatment. Dream Spa Medical is happy to provide you with a prescription, assuming that you are a candidate for this prescription.
- We ask that if you are currently taking oral antibiotics or steroids, you discontinue the medication for 10 days prior to your appointment.
- If you are currently taking or have taken Isotretinoin or any Accutane-type medications, we ask that you wait at least 6 months before pursuing any aesthetic procedures.
- We always suggest hydrating as much as possible prior to any treatment at Dream Spa Medical. It is a great way to help your body function at its best as well as help to accelerate your healing time and enhance results.
- It is best to protect your new, glowing skin by avoiding direct sun exposure or the use of tanning beds for a few days post-treatment.
- Mild redness and swelling can be expected. This typically subsides within 24 hours.
- Your provider will send you home with SkinCeuticals PhytoCorrective Masque or a calming product that they feel best suits your needs. It’s great to sleep in this mask overnight to further calm your skin and enhance your results!
- It is imperative that patients being treated with laser genesis as a therapy to address inflammatory conditions, such as rosacea, inflamed acne, and general redness concerns, incorporate these calming products into their daily home care routines. Your provider may recommend alternating SkinCeuticals PhytoCorrective Masque and Face Reality Sulfur treatments as masking options. It is the game changer in managing and maintaining your results.
- Avoid strenuous exercise, sweating, and excessive temperatures for 24 hours.
- If you are experiencing sensitivity or a mild/moderate rash-like appearance on your skin, you may apply hydrocortisone or take an oral antihistamine. If symptoms do not improve over a 48-hour period with these interventions, please call us to schedule a follow-up so a provider can make the appropriate recommendations.
- Your provider will make appropriate home care recommendations tailored to your specific plan, but a general rule is to avoid all active ingredients such as acids (glycolic, salicylic, etc.), retinol products (Rx or over-the-counter), or topical prescriptions, such as antibiotic or steroid creams, until your skin feels “back to normal” or for a minimum of 2 days. The exception to this would be if you are using our suggested Environ Vitamin A treatment cream or serum (Youth Essentia A or Skin Essentia A). These products can be used as early as the following day.
- Avoid waxing, bleaching, or depilatory use for 2 weeks post-treatment.
- Always use a physical protectant SPF (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) and reapply throughout the day. We strongly recommend ISDIN Eryfotona Actinica as a base in the morning and ISDIN Mineral brush for reapplying throughout the day.
- It is possible that you may experience slight tightness or itching after your facial. Although this is not ideal, it should subside within a day or 2. If you are experiencing these symptoms for longer than 2 days or if a rash begins to form, please call us to schedule a follow-up, during which a provider can make the appropriate recommendations.
- We strongly discourage you from exposing the treated area directly to the sun and encourage you to avoid the use of tanning beds for at least 2 weeks following this procedure.
- You may proceed with any cosmetic procedures or injectable treatments immediately following your treatment. It is best to wait a week for any additional aesthetic services. We are always happy to make accommodations when scheduling to ensure that you are able to receive all of the treatments that you are interested in, as long as they can be performed on the same day. We know your time is valuable, and we want to make it seamless for you to make Dream Spa Medical your one-stop-shop for all your cosmetic needs.
Patients with active acne may experience a flare-up, or purging, post-treatment. Proper home care and compliance are going to be crucial to managing this condition. This typically happens in your initial visits, but with consistency, trust, and compliance, this will not continue, and you will have the clear skin that you deserve!
In extremely rare instances, Laser Genesis treatment could result in reduced hair growth. This would only be possible if the hair in the area that is treated is very dark and coarse. If this is a concern for you, please discuss this with your provider, and they can assess and make appropriate recommendations. This does not apply to eyebrows and “peach fuzz”; it applies primarily to areas such as a beard or sideburns where reduced growth may be undesirable.
