What can the carbon peel do?

The carbon peel is a gentle treatment that can exfoliate the skin four times deeper than other peels without causing pain, flaking, or bleeding and with no downtime needed.

It helps to even skin tone and reduce the appearance of pigmentation and fine line. It provides notable improvement for redness, rosacea, acne, dull and dehydrated skin, and is especially beneficial for oily skin, blackheads, or enlarged pores.

The Q-switch laser used during the treatment breaks up skin pigments to allow the body to remove them naturally and heats the dermis to stimulate collagen production, which aids in skin rejuvenation.

What happens during the carbon peel procedure?

During your consultation, our skincare specialist will review your medical history, assess your skin, and create a personalized treatment tailored to your skin type. Your safety and comfort are of the utmost importance to all of us, and we will ensure that you receive the best treatment possible.

The treatment session involves the following steps:

• The skincare specialist will apply a layer of liquid carbon on your skin to penetrate deep into the pores and absorb dirt oil and dead skin cells.
• After applying protective cover on your eyes, Q-switch laser light is passed over your skin, emitting pulses that heat the thin layers of skin tissue and collagen.
• The next step involves passing the laser again to destroy the carbon layer, taking dead skin cells, debris and oil with it. The laser zaps a little loudly as it passes over your skin, but it doesn’t cause any pain, and you feel nothing more than a tingle or a little pinch.
• The skincare specialists pass the laser one final time over your face to ensure all the carbon is removed.
• This multi-step treatment takes about 45 minutes and provides immediate noticeable results. Your skin will look brighter and feel smoother and softer than it has been in a long time.

What to expect after the treatment?

You may experience some redness due to the laser heat, but this usually resolve within few hours.
We recommend doing the carbon peel facial once every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on your skin concerns and to maintain the beautiful result.
