Who Should Use The Geneo Balance Facial
Detox and Deep Clean Your Skin
The Geneo Balance facial works especially well to detoxify and deep-clean oily, combination, and blemish-prone skin types. It's antibacterial, antimicrobial, antiviral, and antifungal properties make it a great choice for acne-prone skin. Powerful antioxidants deliver beneficial ingredients to the skin to improve skin texture and appearance without the downtime associated with other exfoliation and dermabrasion systems.
Each Geneo Balance Facial delivers ingredients in 2 ways
Every Geneo facial delivers highly effective ingredients in two ways: through the Geneo OxyPod technology and Geneo Balancing Serum. When the Geneo facial begins, the power of the all-natural ingredients found in the unique Geneo OxyPod interact with the Geneo Primer Gel and start Geneo’s patented oxygenation process, bringing the body’s naturally-occurring oxygen to the skin’s surface. In this step, our patented Oxygeneo™ technology combines with exfoliation, resulting in a bubbly, CO2 rich environment on the skin’s surface. This triggers the body's unique, natural, physiological process to increase oxygen levels intenally to prep the skin for maximum absorption.
In the next step of the facial, ultrasound waves stimulate micro-vibrations in the skin, delivering instant smoothing results on the surface, this step increases the permeability of the skin’s protective layer and enhances the absorption of the Geneo Balancing Serum’s active ingredients.
Charcoal, Nature’s Detoxifying Champion
The key ingredient in the Geneo Balance Facial OxyPod is bamboo charcoal. Bamboo charcoal adsorbs impurities due to its super-porous structure. Just one teaspoon has the surface area of a football field. Millions of pores within the charcoal act as a magnet to trap and draw out impurities from deep inside the pores of your skin. It also gently exfoliates to remove dead skin cells without drying skin.
Other natural active ingredients in the Balance OxyPod are:
Camu-camu extract which comes from the berries of a bush found in the Amazon rainforest. It is one of the highest sources of Vitamin C in the world, more than 30x that found in an orange. Vitamin C helps protect the skin from UVA and UVB rays, stimulates the production of collagen and reduces hyperpigmentation.
Mandelic acid, which is derived from bitter almonds, works by gently exfoliating the skin. It loosens the bonds that hold dead cells on the surface of the skin allowing, them to shed more effectively.
Geneo Balancing Serum
The facial finishes with the neo-massage step, locking in the power of Geneo. The neo-massage step delivers instant reduction in redness and puffiness while deeply infusing the active ingredients of the Geneo Balancing Serum. The Geneo Balancing Serum completes the treatment with powerful detoxifying and hydrating ingredients, providing nutrients, antioxidants, and vitamins to further nourish and improve the appearance of the skin, reduce pore size and provide strong antibacterial detoxifying properties. Ingredients include salicylic acid which is derived from the bark of the willow tree; kojic acid which is made from several different types of fungi; vanilla and horsetail extracts; jojoba and argan oils, and shea butter.
Rediscover Clean
Blemish-Free Skin
No matter your age, or skin-type…if you have acne-prone skin, then the Geneo Balance Facial is for you. The Geneo Balance Facial removes dirt and impurities, fights acne and balances oily skin.
Who Should Use The Geneo Revive Facial
Reduce fine lines, wrinkles and signs of aging
The Geneo Revive Facial refreshes dull skin, reduces fine lines and improves overall skin texture and appearance to reduce the signs of aging. Powerful antioxidants deliver beneficial ingredients to improve firmness and elasticity of the skin without the downtime associated with other exfoliation and dermabrasion systems.
Each Geneo Revive Facial delivers ingredients in 2 ways

This triggers the body's unique, natural, physiological process to increase oxygen levels intenally to prep the skin for maximum absorption.
In the next step of the facial, ultrasound waves stimulate and condition the skin for treatment. Ultrasound waves stimulate micro-vibrations in the skin, delivering instant smoothing results on the surface, this step increases the permeability of the skin’s protective layer and enhances the absorption of the Geneo serum’s active ingredients.
Red Algae, Nature’s Anti-Aging Powerhouse
The key ingredient in the Geneo Revive Facial OxyPod is red algae. Red algae, often referred to as a sea vegetable, is an excellent source of vitamins and minerals that hydrate and detoxify the skin. In fact, the mineral content in red algae is 20x higher than that of plants grown on land. These minerals help reduce collagen degradation, improve skin elasticity and promote skin smoothness. They can even help reverse damage caused by oxidative stress and UV exposure.
Other natural active ingredients in the Revive OxyPod are:
Caffeic acid which is found most abundantly in nature in coffee and apples. It is a powerful antioxidant and has anti-inflammatory properties as well.
Ferulic acid which is naturally derived from rice. Ferulic acid helps with skin rejuvenation to improve signs of premature aging by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while improving skin firmness and elasticity.
Retinyl palmitate is found in many dairy products. It is a milder form of retinol in its natural state. It can be used on sensitive skin types to help even skin tone and reduce sun damage.

It can help fade pigmentation and smooth the skin’s surface to reduce dullness, as well as reducing redness and evening skin tone. Vitamin C is rich in antioxidants that help protect against sun damage and is known for boosting collagen production to help prevent the formation of fine lines and wrinkles.
Other natural active ingredients in the Illuminate OxyPod are:
Kojic acid is a chemical produced from different types of fungi. The primary benefit is to lighten visible sun damage, age spots, or scars. In addition to skin-lightening effects, kojic acid also contains some antimicrobial and antibacterial benefits to help decrease the chances of developing common types of bacterial skin infections.
Prickly pear seed oil, a highly moisturizing, skin-softening oil is derived from a cactus. It contains 150% of the vitamin E contained in argan oil and is rich in amino acids, which stimulate collagen production to promote faster cell turnover. It also contains vitamin K which brightens under-eye dark circles and promotes skin elasticity.
Carrots are a source of beta carotene. Carrot seed oil is rich in antioxidants, which are vital in fending off skin-damaging free radicals. Beta-carotene is a precursor to vitamin A which increases the skin's rate of cell turnover, bringing younger, healthier skin cells to the surface.
Bearberry leaves which produce alpha arbutin which is very effective in treating hyper-pigmentation, acne scars, and age spots to even out skin tone. It can also inhibit the negative effects of UV-radiation, as well as acting as an astringent to inhibit bacterial growth.

Oxygenation By Geneo, A Natural Source of Beauty
Skin Renewal with Oxygeneo®
Geneo Oxypods, creating oxygen within the skin, not just on the skin. Geneo’s patented Oxygeneo® technology occurs when the dormant all-natural ingredients in our OxyPods come into contact with the Geneo Primer Gel to encourage the release of CO2. The Oxygeneo® process triggers a natural physiological reaction in the body. Oxygen is carried to the surface of the skin where these increased levels enhance the absorption of the natural ingredients in the OxyPod and throughout the rest of the facial treatment.
Oxygenation, Exfoliation, Nourishment
The Geneo Facial begins when the natural ingredients in the Geneo OxyPod interact with the Geneo Gel during the Oxygeneo® phase of the facial. In this step, our patented Oxygeneo® technology combines with exfoliation, resulting in a bubbly, CO2 rich environment on the skin’s surface. Triggering the body’s unique, natural, physiological process of increased oxygen levels internally, the skin is prepped for maximum absorption. The oxygenation process promotes exfoliation and enhances the penetration of the active ingredients into the skin.
Delivering Oxygen Directly Into the Skin
- Increases blood flow & cell metabolism
- Hydrates and detoxifies the skin
- Promotes repair and regeneration of collagen & elastin
The Results
Natural skin oxygenation elevated 18%
Every Geneo facial provides immediate and long-lasting results: healthier, younger looking skin; reduced puffiness; and improved skin cell production. No matter what your age or skin type.

Clinical Study Shows The Benefits Of Geneo
A wide variety of treatments are available for exfoliating and infusing ingredients into the skin. The patented, medical-grade, non-invasive OxyGeneo® process provided by the Geneo is the only skincare platform that provides a unique treatment utilizing the body’s own natural mechanism to work from within.
A reaction occurs between the Geneo OxyPod and the Geneo Gel creating a bubbly, CO2 rich environment on the skin’s surface. The reaction causes a layer of CO2 microbubbles that penetrate into the epidermis. The increased levels of CO2 on the skin trigger a natural mechanism in the body called the Bohr Effect. This drives oxygen-rich blood to the skin surface and increases the levels of oxygen in the treated area. The Geneo Oxypod’s special texture simultaneously delivers a gentle exfoliation of the skin. The combination of exfoliation and oxygenation from within creates optimal conditions for nutrients to be absorbed into the skin.
The Study
The effectiveness of the OxyGeneo® process was clinically validated by Dr. Alex Levenberg who evaluated the amount of blood circulation and CO2 and oxygen levels on the skin. Among a test group of patients, measurements were taken prior to treatment, immediately following treatment, and 15 minutes after treatment. Patients showed improvement in various skin attributes such as smoothness, pore appearance, brightness, and reduction of fine lines. 3D Primos imaging showed a reduction in wrinkle depth of 112 microns. Visio Meter microscopic imaging highlighted the results of smoother, less scaly skin, while the Delfin Skin Gloss Meter showed an improvement in 67% of the patients.
The Results: Increased Oxygen Levels In The Skin
Both blood flow and oxygen levels increased during the treatment. The increase in blood flow and oxygen levels in the treated area helps prepare the skin to more readily absorb nutrients and enhances collagen production. The results: CO2 levels return to normal, but the levels of oxygen remain heightened, as does blood flow to the treatment area during the treatment period. This helps to increase the absorption of nutrients.
The Results: Reduction In Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Primos 3D Imaging showed a reduction in the depth of fine lines of up to 112 microns, an overall improvement in skin texture, and significant reduction of periorbital fine lines of up to 71%. A Delfin Skin Glossiness evaluation showed an improvement in 67% of the patients, primarily the cheek area.
Patient Feedback—Amazing
All patients noted an improvement in immediate results including skin smoothness and overall improvement of skin texture. 67% of patients noted a reduction in pore size. 58% noted an improvement in skin pigmentation and a huge 87% noted a reduction in fine lines. But as the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words so check out the results below!

Hollyday Med Spa & Aesthetics and Geneo
Selling the Geneo Difference
Soon after the Hollyday Med Spa in Kansas City, MO, received their first Geneo device, the aestheticians started to fight over it. “We knew right away that we had to get more machines,” said Kasha Campbell, practice manager. “When the Lumenis rep first introduced Geneo to us and let us use it for a few days before making a commitment, we fell in love with it.” Less than two years later, this popular med spa has five Geneo devices, one for each facial treatment room. And they’re often all in operation from open to close!
The Geneo Difference
80% to 90% of their clients prefer Geneo over competing facial devices, Kasha noted. Geneo exfoliates, infuses nutrient-rich active ingredients, and oxygenates the skin. Working with the natural processes of the body to increase collagen production, it helps to create tighter, smoother, clearer, more hydrated and nourished skin, and provides long-term rejuvenating benefits. The spa’s other skincare platform, which uses vacuuming and suction to clean the skin, is “bulky and loud, and doesn’t offer as smooth a treatment as Geneo,” Kasha added. “Our clients still feel like they’re getting a luxe, pamperIng facial even though we’re using a machine.”
“The Geneo provides exfoliation that’s comparable to traditional microdermabrasion, which clients didn’t feel they were getting with our other facial device. And the nutrient-rich, active ingredients it infuses into the skin are incredible,” Kasha added.
Geneo: Special Events or Package Deal?
Hollyday Med Spa is doing Geneo 60-minute facials on women of all ages. The starting price is $150, but when dermaplaning, brow tinting or another service is added, the average spend is about $200, Kasha said. The Geneo is popular among Hollyday clients for weddings, proms, homecomings, galas, fundraisers and other special events. If a newly engaged woman wants to completely transform her skin before her wedding, a Geneo facial will be the “icing on the cake” after she has other treatments for severe pigmentation and texture issues. “We’ll do a series of six bi-weekly Geneo treatments for engaged women who want a difference in their skin but aren’t ready for lasers. Otherwise, we’ll typically do treatments every four to eight weeks,” Kasha said.
Word-Of-Mouth Advertising and Social Media Are Geneo’s Best Friend
Besides word-of-mouth recommendations, social media is a huge marketing influence for the spa. “It’s just the way people do research now,” she added. “One of our employees will have a Geneo facial with another aesthetician and she’ll post a selfie on Instagram or Facebook right after it so her fans can see how fresh faced and amazing her skin looks. We’ll notice an immediate influx of inquiries. People will ask ‘What are you doing? What are you using?’”
Geneo: A Natural Transition To Higher-Priced Treatments
“While plastic surgeons make their money doing mommy makeovers, breast augmentations and tummy tucks, we only specialize in aesthetic medicine. We do it all day, every day. We’ve perfected techniques such as how to hold a handpiece, and the pattern and the speed to use,” Kasha emphasized.
Considering Hollyday’s successful experience, Kasha recommends that a basic aesthetics spa use Geneo to ease its way into the medical side without it being overwhelming to the owner or to customers. “It’s an affordable device compared to lasers, and the cost of product to us is about $19 per treatment, compared to the disposable costs associated with one of the body contouring machines,” Kasha explained. “Geneo also is user friendly and gives you wonderful results without incurring extreme overhead…Once you pay off the Geneo machine you’re able to afford a $150K laser without taking on investors.”
Hollyday Med Spa + Aesthetics
Hollyday Med Spa is a top tier medical and aesthetics spa helping clients bring their inner beauty outward. It is located in a niche neighborhood in Kansas City, MO that “feels like a small town but is still centrally located and minutes away from the Kansas/Missouri state line”. Drawing from many different areas of the city, its clients range from young working families to condo owners and affluent residents in Mission Hills, KS.

Mixing it up with Geneo
Non-Invasive Preventive Skincare Treatments
Spa Bar Miami has been providing non-invasive skincare treatments to a wide range of clientele in Coral Gables, FL for 10 years. Owner/practitioner Natalia Moreno, noted, “We do everything that is non-invasive—facials, microdermabrasion, micro-needling. And now we offer the Geneo.”
Moreno selected the Geneo for her practice because she can use it on all of her clients and it aligns with her skincare philosophy. “I try to educate my clients about prevention, taking care of their skin when they’re young and, of course, at any age. I tell them you can treat your skin with non-invasive…take care of your skin every day and do non-invasive treatments.”
The flexibility of Geneo’s Technology
“What I like about the Gene is that it’s 3-in-1. It concentrates everything and you can really see the results on the same day. Everything is together and it’s for every type of skin, every age. The length of the treatment depends upon the client’s skin.” Moreno remarked. “If I have a client that has rosacea, I will only do a light exfoliation, not too long. I will only do it for 5 minutes and stay away from where their rosacea is. When someone comes in with acne and acne scars, I can do a little bit more…the exfoliation for like 8 minutes. I had a client the other day that only had 30 minutes so we did a 30 minute treatment with the Geneo.”
Moreno also leverages Geneo to increase the success of other treatments, “I can do dermaplaning before the Geneo and I always do a mask after the Geneo. It all depends on how I see their skin. If their skin is too red…I will put a calming mask on. Sometimes I do LED light.”
Geneo: A Perfect Fit and An Introductory Offer
We also spoke with Moreno about maximizing profitability, “For the Geneo facial, I’m charging $200 right now. I retail it for $350 but since it’s a new product for me I want everybody to try it so I’m giving them $200 for the first time.”. She also leverages Geneo to maintain a client in unique situations, “I have clients that come in for say a micro-needling and they say they have a wedding in two days and I tell them not to worry, I have a perfect fit for you. Let’s do Geneo, you’re going to be glowing, the ingredients are going to penetrate better, your make-up is going to look better.”
And “Bam” The Geneo Sells Itself
“People like to use technology. People like to have treatments with machines. The Geneo in particular, it really relaxes. On the ultrasound part, people say “I can stay here the whole day”. And then you finish with the massage and “bam” they’re hooked.”. Moreno has a process,“ I do the ultrasound very slow and I do it for 10 minutes. That’s the part of the treatment I always do for 10 minutes. I also incorporate 1 to 2 minutes on the neck.”
The Best Investment This Year
“What I like is that it has everything in one. You can make it 30 minutes, an hour, an hour and a half. You have everything there. And, of course, the revenue. If you do three Geneos in an afternoon you have $600 and you’re making good money that day. I love the machine. I think it’s one of the best investments that I’ve made this year.” Moreno shared.
Spa Bar Miami
Spa Bar Miami operates as a unique “spa bar” concept. Their tagline is “Let your body escape during your lunch break or after work for a great time at our bar.” Whether clients want a quick pick-me-up, an in-depth facial, or a soothing massage, Spa Bar Miami invites guests to sit in one of our Spa Bar stools, and receive a 1-on-1, complimentary hands-on analysis of their skin by a qualified skincare specialist. The analysis moves zone by zone so a client can learn about their individual skin needs, what products to use, and how to apply them. Spa Bar Miami is located in Coral Gables, FL and provides services to a wide spectrum of clients, from teenagers who suffer from acne clients in their 20’s who are concerned about preventing the signs of aging, to a clientele in their 40’s to 50’s.

JTAV Clinical Skincare, building Customer Loyalty with Geneo
Uniting Modern Technology With Traditional Skincare
JTAV Clinical skincare is a high-end luxury skincare spa located in midtown Manhattan. Joie Tavernise, Owner of JTAV Clinical Skincare built her practice around the philosophy that no two faces are exactly alike; therefore, no two treatments are exactly alike.
This basic principle has guided her to create a signature experience for every client—one that unites modern technologies with traditional approaches and incorporates a whole body/whole life perspective. A customized, sometimes “less-is-more” approach begins with an intimate analysis of skin composition, lifestyle and treatment goals. This leads to a treatment plan that centers on both leading-edge non-invasive procedures and time-honored techniques.
Long-Term Relationship Building
Joie Tavernise expressed, “Our clientele is very savvy. They know the latest and the greatest. We are in midtown-Manhattan so there are a lot of great options for them to have treatments. They love the idea that we have the skill, we explain to them, we educate them to take care of their skin from an early age. If the client has just started taking care of their skin with a routine or regimen, we educate them on the treatment that we’re offering. Follow up with them and give them the advice they need to take them through the steps long-term. The idea is to commit and have that relationship that we can build with them.”
With One Geneo Treatment Your Skin Can Be Beautiful
Joie notes that with the Geneo treatment, “You want to explain to the client that with one treatment your skin can be beautiful. And have glowing skin. You can feel rejuvenated. The idea is that you’re creating that relationship long-term so they do return. The idea of exfoliating without damaging the top layer of the skin is something that we can do with the Geneo and with exfoliating the top layer of the skin, you’re going to see a smoother brighter complexion. The pores look softer, the hyperpigmentation looks less visible, the skin feels firmer.”
The reliability and instant results of Geneo help drive confidence in the sale. Joie shared that “The Geneo makes the skin feel is amazing. I love that and I feel like when clients come to JTAV Clinical Skincare, they are coming because they want to look and feel your best. I feel like the Geneo ingredients are amazing, the product itself is tried and true. I can speak with clients about the treatment and they can see the results. It gives me the confidence to give them the skin that they’re looking for when they’re coming through my door.”.
Geneo: A Workout For the Skin
The Geneo’s unique technology story, and beauty from within positioning drives instant success with clients. Joie says, “The Geneo allows us to create that oxygen, that stimulation, almost like a workout for the skin. When they [clients] hear that, who doesn’t want that. They’re like sign me up. Just that alone, the idea that we can create oxygen for a healthy glow is easy for me to sell. Your clients can have this treatment and can leave and feel rejuvenated, re-energized and their skin is actually speaking that whether they’re outdoors or virtual. It’s a nice addition and it’s nice to have it available within the office. It can be used for all ages, all skin types, and it’s really a great start for anyone.”
We Love Selling The Geneo As A Package
Joie also shared with us how she sells the Geneo service. “We love the idea of a package. We know that once you have that initial Geneo treatment you’re going to see the results so we do suggest a package for most of our treatments. The idea is that it is easy to customize for a non-invasive treatment so our prices may be a little higher than some other places considering we are in midtown Manhattan.”. Joie creates the ultimate experience, and ensures to focus beyond just the face, “We have a luxury heated bed and fancy sheets and we try to make it feel like a beautiful spa experience. So that being said, we charge $400 with the combo. The combo involves the face, neck, decollete, and extractions. We always want to clean the pores if that is necessary and try to give a full non-invasive treatment with our different modalities. But we use the Geneo as the start of the treatment. We usually take an hour. We want to make it a luxurious treatment so clients can see the results.”
The Artistry Of Customizing Skincare With Geneo
Joie enthused about Geneo, “I personally like anything that I can customize because when I’m in the room I am almost like an artist. I can mix and match, everyone’s skin is so different and maybe I might do something on the face with the Geneo and I might change the product on the neck and decollete so it gives me the ability to customize. That’s my favorite thing.”
Joie noted that the idea is that you can customize with the Geneo. She can change the product out depending on what’s going on with the client’s skin. If there’s more acne she uses the charcoal, if the client’s skin is dry she may use Revive. If the skin has a little bit of sun damage, she can use Illuminate. “It gives us the option to choose what facial we want to use and immediately give that glow with each of the choices that we’re making. And the ultrasound helps penetrate the product to give that beautiful glow.”
All Natural Ingredients Reduce The Signs of Aging and Fight Acne
“As a skin specialist, I personally love anything that has natural anti-oxidants. I know we’re going to reduce fine lines and reduce wrinkles. We’re going to firm the skin naturally with the natural ingredients. The clients love that you are detoxifying the skin naturally.” Joie leverages the ingredients story as yet another benefit of the Geneo.
“In terms of having the natural rich anti-oxidants that are penetrating the skin…it’s such a great anti-aging idea. The natural ingredients are nourishing the skin, are penetrating to minimize the fine lines. I feel like you immediately see the results and so I feel great using it with the custom treatments that we offer.”
Joie also spoke about fighting acne with the natural ingredients found in the Geneo Charcoal Facial. “I see younger skin that is battling with acne. We have a lot of young clients who have tried prescriptions and tried topicals and their skin is reacting. I’ve never had a reaction with using the Geneo. They actually stop using the prescription and start using the Geneo series [of treatments] and really see an improvement in their skin overall.”
JTAV Clinical Skincare
Joie’s passion for skincare started when she was a teenager struggling with acne and breakouts and didn’t have the right treatments or products. She began to work on special products and ingredients herself. She started her practice in 2008 and grew her business by choosing the best treatments for her clients. Joie and her team of experts provide advanced aesthetic treatments to clients in the luxurious surroundings of her midtown Manhattan spa.

Coastal Contours and Geneo
Beauty from Within
Coastal Countours and Wellness, located in Mobile, AL was started by Michael and Susan Bruno and they have been growing by leaps and bounds ever since. Their mission is to help other people with their wellness, their health, and their overall image of themselves. They cater to a broad range of age groups with the treatments they offer. Susan noted, “So probably are biggest age group is the 30 to 50 group and then there is another subgroup—second in line would be the 50 to 60 age and over group.”
She noted that with the Geneo, “You’ll have great results from it well into 2, 3, 4 weeks. It’s incredible, you look beautiful. You’re beautiful to begin with but we make it even more obvious.”
Geneo Makes Beauty More Obvious
At Coastal Contours they leverage the approachability of the Geneo treatment being non-invasive to intro clients. “We find that the Geneo system starts as a great way to get people into the office. Because it is such a unique treatment, this is a cutting-edge treatment that uses great products, all-natural. It’s very healing, very soothing, so we’re able to treat anything from blemishes and acne to fine lines and wrinkles, rosacea, and things like that.” Bruno says.
The team at Coastal Contours spoke about our patented Geneo technology, “We’re actually affecting the deeper levels of the skin to help oxygenate them. Oxygenating the skin is huge. Very important for sending the peptides and anti-oxidants deeper into the skin for longer healing and longer improvement in the skin. That’s why I think the initial glow that they get when they come out is so significant.”. They also shared their success with both immediate and lasting results, “It’s beautiful. And it really does last. It works over time. If you keep doing them 4 to 6 weeks apart you will literally see people’s skin lifting and tightening itself, reducing the fine lines and wrinkles.”
Geneo: A Natural Treatment for Acne Prone Skin
Susan is a big proponent of the Geneo Charcoal Facial. “We use the Geneo Charcoal Facial the younger groups with acne issues that start at 15 or 16 and go to their late 20’s. We start off with the Charcoal Balance treatment which is super detoxifying and very cleansing. There are a lot of characteristics of charcoal that you can’t get anywhere else.”
She went on to further say, “In terms of the acne, I just can’t begin to tell you how amazing the results are. We’ve had kids with cystic acne, all kinds of different issues with their skin and it not only clears up the blemishes but is clears the scarring as well. It works well with other treatments also. We also have the Hydralux facial, it’s more extracting if you have a lot of clogged pores. But everyone who comes in may have a lot of deep clogged pores. The other facials we have don’t get as deep into the skin layers. That is the biggest difference.’
And Then There’s Maskne
Coastal Contours uses the Geneo to fight the recent skin condition known as ‘maskne’. “This whole maskne thing that’s going on. It’s not necessarily acne but its skin irritations from wearing a mask and having CO2 stuck in there in your skin. That’s one of the benefits of this product is that we’re able to increase the oxygen in your skin. It happens to all age groups. People are coming in and saying, ‘I’ve never had acne’ and I tell them it’s not really acne. So I talk to them about it and tell them about the super results with Geneo.”
The Geneo Is So Exciting It Sells Itself
Susan enthused, “It’s so exciting. It’s so progressive. I love it. My clients love it. If I tell people about it they want to do it. It’s simple because there’s nothing out there that does what the Geneo does. It has 3 steps. Your first step is the cleansing, detoxifying, taking off the first layer of dead skin cells. Then there is ultrasound which infuses the serums that we use deeper into the skin. Then there’s the massage step where you’re increasing lymphatic draining and you’re increasing blood flow. You’re actually not affecting topically, but you’re getting into the skin layers for infusion. That’s why it lasts a good long time.”
Mix & Match Packages A Natural Geneo Win
They have been creative with the versatility offered between each Geneo treatment. “We have got some amazing results with a 3-pack package. They come in once a week for 3 weeks. It’s usually for people who have skin conditions that they are trying to clear up whether its super dry skin, whether its acne prone…which is probably our most common in terms of using the package. But we use combination therapy as well. We use the Geneo for the first treatment to really help detox the pores and the skin and then we’ll use a more extracting treatment and then on the third treatment we go back with the Geneo. We use the Revive or the Illuminate to give it that final glow, that final moisturizing phase that we really want to have for our clients.”
The customizable protocol process has also proved successful, “We might also mix and match the different protocols within Geneo rather than just keeping to one protocol every time for the package. Clients’ needs may differ as they go through skincare treatments. It just depends on the person’s skin. It is very individualized.” Leveraging the customizable can go a long way with customer loyalty.
The Champagne Facial
The team found a way to take customizing the Geneo even further. “The Geneo Facial is kind of fun. This is very well thought out. It’s an amazing design. It’s a great treatment. It’s so easy to use. And it’s so different. So starting from the very initial OxyPod, there’s a little pod that we use that combines with the gel that we put on the skin. That starts to bubble as you do the treatment. It’s so fun and it’s tingly on the skin. We call it the champagne facial because of all the little bubbles.”
A typical Geneo facial at Coastal Contours without adding anything extra typically lasts about 30 minutes. They may supplement the Geneo facial with an added extraction service or a clay mask with steam—depending on what the client is looking for. For an extra pampering touch, they add hand massage and facial massage. For a regular Gene Facial the price is $149 per treatment. The package is $298 for a three-pack so the customer is getting one treatment for free.
