The treatment begins with a layer of medical-grade liquid carbon, which absorbs oil, dead skin, and toxins. A specialized Q-Switched laser is then used to heat and vaporize the carbon, lifting impurities and exfoliating the skin from deep within. This process not only deep-cleans pores but also stimulates collagen production, tightens skin, and restores a youthful glow.
How does carbon laser facial work?
The treatment starts with a layer of liquid medical-grade carbon applied to your skin. The carbon absorbs oil, impurities, and dead skin cells. A Q-Switched laser is then used to heat and vaporize the carbon, exfoliating the skin and deeply cleansing the pores while stimulating collagen production.
Is the treatment painful?
No, the treatment is gentle and non-invasive. Most clients describe a mild tingling or warm sensation, similar to a light snap. No numbing is required, and sessions are quick and comfortable.
How many sessions will I need?
You may notice a smoother, more radiant look after just one session, but for ongoing acne control, oil regulation, or pigmentation, we typically recommend 3–6 treatments spaced 2–4 weeks apart.
Is there any downtime?
Downtime is minimal to none. You might experience slight redness for an hour or two, but most clients return to daily activities right after the session.
Is it safe for all skin types?
The Carbon Laser Facial is safe for most skin tones. However, we conduct a personalized skin assessment to ensure suitability, especially for deeper skin tones.
Can I combine with other treatments?
Yes! This facial pairs well with hydrating facials, LED light therapy, or mild chemical peels. Our experts can guide you on customized combination treatments for enhanced results.
What should I avoid before the treatment?
Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, retinoids, or exfoliating agents 3–5 days before your session. Come with clean, product-free skin for the best results.
What's the aftercare like?
Keep skin clean, hydrated, and protected from the sun. Avoid harsh products, exfoliants, or makeup for 24 hours. Always apply SPF daily to protect your glow.
Who is NOT a good candidate?
This treatment is not recommended for those with active infections, open wounds, severe rosacea, or during pregnancy. We’ll evaluate your skin to ensure safety and effectiveness.
