Carbon laser peel
Carbon laser peel
The Carbon laser peel is a fast and painless procedure done to help improve the look of skin. It’s used primarily by people with oily skin, acne, and enlarged or clogged pores. This treatment is also beneficial if you are starting to see the effects of sun damage to your skin.
What are the benefits of Carbon laser peel?
Carbon laser peels deeply exfoliate skin. They also help stimulate collagen production.
Carbon laser peels are used to treat:
-acne
-acne pigmentation
-acne scarring
-enlarged and clogged pores
-melasma
photoaging
fine lines and wrinkles
Chemical peels also treat these skin conditions, but here are some of the main differences between the two:
-Carbon laser peels use heat instead of chemicals for results
-Carbon laser peels require no down time
-people with sensitive skin or skin conditions like eczema will usually experience less redness and irritation after a carbon peel than from a chemical peel.
How is the Carbon laser peel procedure done?
The Carbon laser peel is a multi-part process that takes around 30 minutes from start to finish. For this reason, it is sometimes referred to as a lunchtime peel.
Here’s what you can expect from a typical Carbon laser peel:
A layer of liquid carbon is spread onto your face. The carbon absorbs oil, dirt, and dead skin cells from deep within the pores.
You’ll wait for about 10 minutes for the liquid carbon to dry.
After the carbon has dried, our dermatologist will give you eye shields to protect your eyes from the laser.
Doctor will pass a laser, such as PICO LASER, over the skin on a low-energy setting. This heats up the carbon, binding it to the epidermis.
If you have very sensitive skin or dark patches like melasma, your doctor may recommend skipping the heating step. The laser also heats up dermal tissue, boosting collagen and plumping up fine lines.
On a higher-energy setting, the laser will be used to fragment the liquid carbon into tiny particles.
A smoke evaporator attached to the laser will remove the carbon as well as the debris and impurities it contains.
A hydrating moisturizer and sunscreen are applied to your skin after the treatment.
You should immediately see brighter, glowing skin and tighter pores.
If you have sensitive skin, you may experience a slight pinking or reddening of the skin. This usually lasts for one hour or less.
