It is completely painless with zero downtime and helps to remove dead skin cells, clears dark spots, improves open pores and also has anti-aging effects like reduction of fine lines and wrinkles.

A layer of carbon peel is applied on the skin followed by Laser which destroys carbon and takes dead skin and pigment along with it leaving smoother, brighter and firmer skin instantly. It is the best treatment to do before a party or event as there is no downtime or redness or pain during or after the procedure and results are instant.

What is it?

It is a simple and safe procedure done with a laser to improve skin tone and also the appearance of wrinkles, pores and tanning resulting in immediate glowing and smooth skin.

How is it done?

Carbon peel is applied to the skin followed by application of Laser light. When laser light is passed over skin, carbon peel is destroyed taking dead skin cells and pigment with it. Whole treatment takes around 15-20 minutes. Minor pricking sensation may be felt when laser hits the skin and no anaesthesia is required as it is a completely painless procedure with no down time.

  2. Smoother, Softer and Glowing skin

    Laser also works by exfoliating damaged skin cells and improves skin texture resulting in smoother and softer skin

  3. Reduction inOILY skin

    The laser heat also kills the acne-causing bacteria (Propionibacterium Acnes) and helps in prevention of active acne.

    By stimulating collagen in the deep skin, laser helps in reduction of signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles.

  7. Firm skin and rejuvenation

    After multiple sessions of this treatment, the skin becomes firmer and plumped due to collagen production.

Mostly this treatment is done for Face glow and face rejuvenation but it can also be done for Neck and Back skin to improve the skin tone and to reduce Acne spots of Back and Shoulder.

Side-effects :

Carbon peel is extremely safe with no major side effects and safety of this procedure during pregnancy and lactation is not known. Minor pricking sensation may be felt during the procedure but it is completely painless and no anaesthesia is required.

Skin glow and smooth skin becomes noticeable immediately in most of the patients. But repeated sessions (approximately 5-6 sessions done within 1-2 weeks) may be needed for overall improvement in the skin.

This treatment can be combined with PRP for skin rejuvenation (Vampire facelift), Microdermabrasion, Mesotherapy, Microneedling and chemical peels as per the skin type of patient and other skin issues like active acne and acne scars.
