The best candidates for this treatment are those with dull or oily skin, acne, uneven tone, fine lines, or those seeking a reduction in pore size.

Book an Appointment

The Carbon Peel is a non-invasive laser treatment that combines the application of a carbon cream or lotion with a laser to rejuvenate the skin. Treatment starts with a carbon-based cream applied to the face. This helps to exfoliate the skin and pull out contaminants deep within pores. When the laser device is applied, it targets and destroys the carbon particles, which can have a beneficial effect on reducing acne-causing bacteria and reducing sebum (oil) production. In addition, the heat produced by the laser helps in reducing the size of enlarged pores, providing a smoother skin texture.

What to Expect During Your Session
