Despite its name, the carbon laser peel is not like your regular chemical peel – it uses a carbon solution and lasers to create a peeling effect. Since the lasers do not penetrate the skin too deeply, there is very little recovery time.

How Carbon Laser Peel Works

A carbon laser peel is a two-step treatment that instantly reduces skin concerns such as acne and pigmentation, and leaves the skin visibly brighter, clearer and smoother.

First, a carbon lotion is applied to the skin. Then, the laser creates controlled thermal damage to stimulate the healing process. This causes collagen, elastin and fibroblast production and remodeling to rejuvenate the skin and target fine lines and wrinkles. When targeted at acne, this high energy treatment goes straight to the acne’s membrane and destroys it, reducing acne and its related inflammation.

The second part of the treatment comprises the removal of the carbon lotion, with the short pulse laser. This laser breaks up the carbon into fine particles and then absorbs them, by destroying the carbon and removing the dead skin cells, oils and impurities that were bound to it.

The skin also receives a deep exfoliation during this second stage, making it 4 times stronger than any other peel on the market, and leaving the skin considerably brighter, and smoother in tone and texture.

Carbon Laser peels involve two crucial steps that leave the skin visibly brighter, clearer, and smoother.

Process

First, an exfoliating cream with a high carbon concentration will be applied to the skin to prepare it for the following steps. Next, your doctor will pass a warming laser over your skin to heat up the carbon in the lotion and cause it to absorb the impurities on your skin’s surface. The second step uses a pulsed laser designed to break down the carbon. It destroys the carbon particles from the lotion, as well as any oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria on the skin’s surface. The heat from the pulsed laser also stimulates collagen and elastin production to make your skin look firmer and healthier.
