What Is Carbon Peel?

Carbon peel, also known as Hollywood peel, is a non-invasive, quick procedure that uses a laser to brighten and rejuvenate dull and damaged skin.

How does it work?

At the beginning of the procedure, a layer of dark liquid carbon is applied to the skin, which penetrates deep into the pores and absorbs oil, dirt, and dead skin cells from within the pores.

Once the carbon layer is applied, a laser is used to heat and vaporize the carbon particles, along with the impurities they have absorbed. This process exfoliates the skin, unclogs pores, leading to softer and brighter skin. The heat created also induces remodelling of collagen and contraction of the pores, making the skin look smoother and youthful over time.

What are the benefits of carbon peel?

1. Brighter Complexion: By removing surface impurities and stimulating cell turnover, carbon peel treatments can help to brighten and rejuvenate dull skin. Resulting in more radiant, refreshed look and a glowing complexion.
2. Acne control: Carbon peel treatments are effective at targeting acne and blemishes. The heat from the laser kills acne-causing bacteria, reduces inflammation, and helps to dry out existing breakouts.
3. Improved Skin Texture: Carbon peel treatments exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells and surface impurities. This process helps to smooth out rough patches and uneven texture, leaving the skin feeling softer and more refined.
4. Reduced Pore Size: The exfoliating action of carbon peel helps to unclog and shrink enlarged pores.
5. Anti-aging: The heat from the laser stimulates collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin. Collagen is a protein that helps to maintain the skin’s elasticity and firmness, leading to a more youthful appearance.

 Are there any side effects?

Carbon peel laser is a quick and painless treatment that requires minimal downtime. However, there may be mild redness and a slight warming sensation during and after the treatment which subsides quickly.
