A carbon laser facial, sometimes known as a "carbon peel" or "Hollywood peel," is a non-invasive and pain-free laser treatment that is great for treating a variety of skin concerns. It's popular among celebrities, which is where it gets its Hollywood nickname.
Here's how the treatment generally works:
Carbon Application: A layer of liquid carbon is applied to the skin, where it penetrates deep into the pores. Carbon particles are known to have a strong capacity to absorb dirt deep in the pores.
Laser Treatment: Once the carbon is on the skin, a laser is passed over the area. The laser light is attracted to the carbon particles. It's absorbed, and with a slight burst of heat, it destroys the carbon, carrying away dead skin cells and contaminants.
The treatment is known for its ability to offer several benefits:
Skin Rejuvenation: The laser treatment is designed to stimulate cell renewal, combat active acne, reduce inflammation, and promote a healthy complexion. It exfoliates, cleans, and refines the skin, reducing oil secretion and making the skin feel softer and look more radiant.
Pore Reduction: The carbon absorbs oil and contaminants from deep within the pores. The heat from the laser also reduces the size of the pores and helps to reduce their appearance.
Acne and Oil Destruction: Carbon has the ability to absorb oil and contaminants from deep within the pores. When the laser destroys the carbon, it also destroys these materials, helping to reduce acne, especially oil-caused acne.
Collagen Production: The heat produced by the laser in the skin during the treatment stimulates collagen production, which can reduce fine lines and wrinkles and leaves the skin feeling tighter and glowing.
Even Skin Tone: The treatment can also help to reduce pigmentation, freckles, and sun damage, promoting an even skin tone.
