Restore Clarity and Smoothness With Laser Pore Reduction

Enlarged pores, uneven texture, and persistent redness can make the complexion look dull or congested, even with a consistent skincare routine. At StudioMD SoHo, our pore reduction treatment uses the clinically proven Laser Genesis system to create smoother, clearer, more balanced skin with no downtime. This non-invasive, collagen-stimulating therapy gently heats the deeper layers of the skin to minimize pore size, soften redness, and promote long-lasting improvement in overall skin quality.

StudioMD brings together science-driven technology and a patient-centered approach to help you achieve refined, natural-looking results.

What Is Pore Reduction?

Pore reduction refers to treatments that safely refine enlarged pores and improve the tone and texture of the skin. Laser Genesis, a state-of-the-art, non-invasive ND:YAG laser system, works by delivering controlled thermal energy to the dermis. This targeted heat stimulates collagen renewal, reduces inflammation, and helps constrict enlarged pores.

Over time, the skin becomes smoother, firmer, and more uniform in appearance. Because the energy is gentle and precise, the treatment is suitable for most skin types and ideal for anyone seeking clearer skin without downtime.

Pore Reduction Treatment Details

How Laser Genesis Works

Laser Genesis uses a gentle, continuous wavelength that penetrates beneath the surface to warm the upper dermis. This controlled heating reduces redness from dilated capillaries and initiates new collagen production. Over time, these changes visibly shrink enlarged pores, improve tone, and soften fine lines.

Treatment Areas

Laser Genesis can be performed on the entire face, neck, and décolletage, as well as other areas that show signs of redness, uneven texture, or enlarged pores. It is also effective for acne scars, surgical scars, and areas prone to roughness or discoloration.

Treatment Sensation

Patients often describe the experience as calming and therapeutic. The handheld device glides over the skin while delivering gentle warmth. There is no need for numbing cream, and most patients feel comfortable throughout the entire session.

Benefits of Laser Pore Reduction

A series of treatments can deliver noticeable improvements, including:

  • Smaller, less visible pores
  • Smoother skin texture
  • Reduced facial redness
  • More even tone
  • Softer fine lines
  • Reduced acne scarring
  • Improved overall brightness

Because the treatment triggers collagen renewal, improvements continue to develop in the weeks following each session.

I had a few procedures done at StudioMD. I was very satisfied with the service Dr. Sadaf Qazi and her team provided. They kept me informed throughout the process. The doctor and her team was easy to reach after my surgery. I would highly recommend StudioMD.

Dr. Qazi and her entire staff have warm and welcoming demeanors, a high degree of hospitality, positive attitudes, always smiling and acting with the utmost level of respect, patient care, and making each patient feel special. They focus on client comfort and take their time with each person answering any and all questions. Dr. Qazi never rushes her appointments. She takes the time to listen to every concern and is thorough in each interaction I've had with her. She gave me her personal cell number so even during nights and weekends if a concern or question arises I am able to contact her for a mini evaluation of my issue or answering of my questions. The care I've received has continued long after the procedure was completed and I am so glad that I chose her to do my tummy tuck and liposuction. The results are outstanding and she is the only one I would trust to do any cosmetic procedures going forward.

I went to StudioMD's midtown location for laser tattoo removal. Jennifer is extremely personable, she ensured expectations for the amount of sessions needed for removal as well as ensured my comfort during the treatment. I chose to purchase a package for 6-sessions, and would consider seeking other treatments from StudioMD in the future. Would definitely recommend them to others, and in particular recommend working with Jennifer.

I recently had a SmartLipo procedure with Dr. Khan at Studio MD, and I could not be happier with the entire experience. From my very first consultation to the post-op follow-ups, Dr. Khan demonstrated exceptional professionalism, skill, and care. What really stood out to me was his communication. He took the time to explain the procedure thoroughly, answer every single question I had (and I had a lot!), and never made me feel rushed. He made sure I understood exactly what to expect before, during, and after the procedure, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. Dr. Khan's attention to detail is second to none. He was incredibly meticulous with his work, ensuring that everything was done with precision and care. I felt completely confident in his hands, and the results have exceeded my expectations. His thoroughness also extends to aftercare. He gave me clear post-op instructions, and made sure my recovery was smooth. You can tell he genuinely cares about his patients and takes pride in delivering excellent outcomes. If you're considering SmartLipo or any cosmetic procedure, I highly recommend Dr. Khan. His expertise, communication, and attention to every little detail make him one of the best in the field. Thank you, Dr. Khan and the team at Studio MD!

I recently went into StudioMD to have a procedure done by Dr. Khan. Specifically, I wanted to treat excess fat in my abdominal area and decided to opt for smart lipo. Dr. Khan is very sure of himself as a doctor, which put a lot of my woes to the side. This was my first large cosmetic surgery, so I was extremely nervous. On the day of my procedure, I was delayed because some events were happening in the city, and Dr. Khan and his nurses were extremely accommodating. They let me take my time (I had to pee and just couldn't because of nerves until 2 minutes before surgery) and even gave me pep talks and stress balls to calm my nerves. When we got to work, it was quick and effortless. Dr. Khan allowed me to ask as many questions as I wanted and even called the next day to see how I was doing. They prescribed meds that were ready for pickup immediately and even gave me additional meds that I asked for pain management just in case. One of the amazing nurse technicians even text me afterward and shared her favorite shapewear and other things to help with recovery. I know many of these things seem like, "yeah, they should do that", but I've seen a lot of practices that don't. I also felt the price was fairly affordable since I've seen similar pricing outside of NYC. I'm beginning to feel beautiful in my body again, and I am so thankful to Dr. Khan and his staff. I'll be back soon for some other small cosmetic procedures I want to keep up.

I was referred to Dr. Khan to have neck liposuction and decided to also have my midsection done to correct uneven results from another doctor. Understanding that revision work can be difficult... my expectations were low. I could see immediately after the surgery just how much he improved my situation. Dr Khan operates with the confidence of a seasoned professional. You really can't go wrong with this guy.

“I had my lipo with Dr Khan yesterday and today I can already see the desired changes in my waist and belly area ,I am happy with his performance”

Recovery from Pore Reduction

Laser Genesis requires no downtime. Patients may experience mild redness, warmth, or slight sensitivity after treatment, but these effects typically resolve within a few hours. Makeup can be applied the same day, and normal activities may be resumed immediately. To maintain long-lasting results, proper sunscreen use is recommended, especially for those with redness-prone skin.


Results after Pore Reduction

Many patients see improvement in pore size and texture shortly after their first session. Collagen continues to rebuild gradually, creating increasingly smoother, more refined skin over several weeks. For best results, a series of four to six treatments is usually recommended, with maintenance sessions scheduled based on individual goals and skin needs.
