When it comes to treating the skin, there is rarely a one-size-fits-all approach. Different concerns require different wavelengths and treatment techniques, which is why we love a versatile and customisable approach at Southern Cosmetics, the Cutera XEO+ allows for just that.
The XEO+ is a multi-application laser and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) platform designed to target a wide range of aesthetic concerns, including pigmentation, redness, vascular concerns, signs of ageing, unwanted hair and overall skin quality. With a combination of IPL technology and a 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser, treatments can be tailored to the individual needs of the skin.
One of the biggest advantages of XEO + is its versatility. Depending on the handpiece and treatment settings selected, it can be used for a number of different cosmetic applications.
Pigmentation and sun damage:
IPL treatments can target areas of excess pigment such as sun spots, age spots and freckles. By delivering carefully controlled pulses of light, the treatment targets pigment within the skin, helping to create a more even and balanced complexion.
Redness and vascular concerns: XEO + can also be used to address visible facial vessels, diffuse redness, rosacea and other vascular concerns by ultilising the 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser to target vascular structures at different depths within the skin.

Skin rejuvenation:
One of the signature treatments available on the XEO + platform is Laser Genesis, a gentle 1064 nm laser treatment designed to improve the appearance of redness, fine lines, wrinkles, scars and overall skin quality. Laser Genesis uses micro-pulses of laser energy to gently heat the dermis, making it a popular option for clients wanting skin rejuvenation without significant downtime. Perfect for overall skin health as well as leading up to a treatment goal or special occasion.Â
Suitable for every skin!Â
Because XEO + offers multiple treatment modalities, it can be suitable for a broad range of clients. It may be particularly beneficial for those experiencing pigmentation, sun damage, redness, visible vessels, uneven skin tone, fine lines or textural concerns.
One of the key benefits of the platform is that treatment can be customised according to the individual’s skin type, concerns and desired outcome. Rather than treating every client with the same settings or approach, your qualified practitioner can select the most appropriate technology and parameters for their skin.
For clients who are new to cosmetic treatments, XEO + can also offer a gentle introduction to laser and light-based skin rejuvenation. Laser Genesis, for example, is designed to be a relatively comfortable treatment with little to no downtime and is indicated for all skin types.
The major benefit of Cutera XEO + is its versatility. Multiple concerns can be addressed using one advanced platform, allowing treatments to be tailored as the skin changes over time.
Depending on the treatment selected, potential benefits can include a more even-looking complexion, reduction in the appearance of pigmentation and redness, improvement in visible vascular concerns, smoother-looking skin, refinement of texture, reduction in the appearance of fine lines and support for overall skin rejuvenation.
As with any laser or light-based treatment, the best results come from an individualised treatment plan. Individual results vary. Suitability depends on your individual skin concerns and treatment plan.
Your practitioner will assess your skin, discuss your concerns and determine which XEO + technology is most appropriate for you.
