What are the benefits of laser carbon peel facial?
Laser carbon peel has a deep exfoliating effect on skin. The laser beam also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin inside the skin (which in turn helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and plump the skin up). Laser carbon peels are used to treat:
- Acne/blemishes
- Mild acne scars
- Acne pigmentation
- Oily skin
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin tone
- Photoaging
What is the difference between chemical peel and carbon laser peel?
Chemical peels can be used to treat similar skin conditions, but here are the main differences between laser carbon peels and chemical peels:
- Chemical peels use chemicals, while laser carbon peels use heat to produce results
- Unlike many chemical peels, laser carbon peel requires no down time
- If your skin is sensitive or you have eczema, you will get less redness and irritation with the carbon laser peel
Does carbon laser peel hurt?
The treatment is not painful. You will experience a feeling of warmth and tingling, and possibly sensation similar to a very tiny prick.
What does carbon laser peel involve?
The carbon laser peel takes around 45 minutes from start to finish. This is what will happen during your laser peel facial appointment:
1. The treatment area will get cleaned and all makeup will be removed
2. A layer of liquid carbon will be spread around the treatments area
3. The carbon will be left to dry for 10-20 minutes
4. Once the carbon will get dry, you will receive special protective shields to wear over your eyes to protect the eyes from the laser beam
5. The laser beam will then be shot over the treatment area evaporating the carbon together with dead skin cells, as well as heating up deeper skin layers boosting the producing of collagen
6. The treatment area will get cleaned from any remaining carbon particles and moisturiser will be applied to complete the treatment
You should see some effects immediately, such as tighter pores and brighter and smoother skin.
Sensitive skin may have some redness which will usually subside within a few hours.
