Carbon Laser Peel - Hollywood Facial: Everything you Need to Know
The Carbon Laser Peel, also known as the Hollywood or Charcoal Peel, combines charcoal with Q-Switch laser technology to rejuvenate the skin, reducing signs of aging, large pores, acne, and scars. It creates a softer, glowing appearance, perfect for any occasion!
During the treatment, the laser targets pigmented areas, breaking up cells for natural elimination. Carbon particles in the pores attract the laser's energy, destroying them. Then, the laser heats deeper skin layers, providing an instant lift, smoothing lines, and stimulating collagen production. The carbon paste also absorbs dirt and exfoliates.
Our Carbon Laser Peel offers immediate results with no downtime, leaving your skin tighter, hydrated, and brighter. Redness may occur but typically fades within hours. This non-invasive procedure is gentle yet effective.
Benefits include exfoliation, cleansing, pore tightening, and brightening, with noticeable improvements after just one session. For lasting results, treatments every 2 to 4 weeks are recommended. Say hello to radiant, red-carpet-ready skin!

What to expect from a carbon laser peel facial session
What exactly does a Hollywood Facial entail? Despite its name, it's not your typical facial but rather an advanced laser treatment. This mildly exfoliating and resurfacing procedure targets fine wrinkles, pigment irregularities, enlarged pores, and acne.
During the carbon laser peel, a layer of liquid carbon is applied to the face, forming a dark mask that deeply penetrates the skin to draw out impurities, sebum, and oils. As the carbon absorbs these contaminants, a Q-Switch laser is used to destroy them. While patients may feel warmth or tingling, the treatment is generally painless.
This process aims to exfoliate the skin, reducing pore size, evening skin tone, and enhancing radiance. It's particularly beneficial for those with oily skin, as it reduces acne-causing bacteria and shrinks oil glands.
The purpose of the carbon cream is to deeply penetrate the skin and bond with debris such as dead skin cells, contaminants, and oil. Once dried, a laser is passed over the skin, causing an explosion-like reaction due to the attraction between the laser and the carbon particles.
The Hollywood Facial offers immediate results, including firmer, tighter, clearer, and glowing skin with reduced pores. This safe procedure is suitable for most skin types and provides an instant anti-aging skin refresher without lengthy downtime.
Benefits of the Hollywood Facial include pigmentation reduction, skin detoxification, improved redness and large pores, even skin tone, reduced pore size, and micro-exfoliation for clean, smooth, and glowing skin.
What you must know before your laser peel facial appointment
Before your appointment, you might need to complete a skin analysis form. Consider scheduling a consultation with our technicians to ensure the facial is suitable for you. For optimal results, it's advisable to undergo laser peel facial treatment every four weeks or until your skin improves.
The Hollywood Carbon Peel is a gentle procedure suitable for bi-weekly, monthly, or occasional use, depending on your desired outcomes. Achieve radiant skin before special events with a treatment a day or two prior. Maintain ongoing collagen stimulation, even skin tone, texture, and youthful skin with monthly sessions.
Some side effects you can present after a Hollywood peel are:
Redness, facial swelling and itching. Treated skin may be itchy, swollen and red. Redness may be intense and might last for several months. The aggravation of a previously existing skin condition, such as rosacea, can contribute to redness.
Changes in skin color. Ablative laser resurfacing can cause treated skin to become darker than it was before treatment (hyperpigmentation) or lighter (hypopigmentation), beginning weeks after laser resurfacing. Permanent changes in skin color are more common in people who have darker skin.
Scarring. Ablative laser resurfacing poses a slight risk of permanent scarring.
Turning of the eyelid (ectropion). Rarely, ablative laser resurfacing done near the lower eyelid can cause the eyelid to turn out and expose the inner surface.
