A carbon laser facial, also known as a laser carbon peel or carbon peel laser, is an innovative facial treatment that can improve the appearance of damaged, aging skin. A carbon peel laser treatment can help you achieve a more youthful-looking complexion and appearance. During carbon laser skin resurfacing, a layer of liquid carbon will be applied to the body and face’s skin.
As the liquid carbon dries during carbon dioxide laser resurfacing, it penetrates the pores and bonds with various dead skin cells, oil and other forms of debris. The next step of carbon laser skin resurfacing involves a laser passing over the skin’s surface to heat the pores. This laser transfers light energy into the carbon particles, resulting in a reaction within the skin.
As the skin begins to warm, it encourages the production of collagen and elastin. The activated carbon during a laser facial can help remove dead, damaged skin cells as well as built-up oil and dirt. In addition to encouraging the production of elastin and collagen, carbon laser facials cause little to no discomfort, as they’re safe and gentle on almost all skin types.
