Carbon Laser Peel

After the skin is thoroughly cleansed, a carbon paste is then applied.

The carbon bonds with any debris that might be present within the skin, such as dead skin cells, blocked pores, contaminants, and oil.

Eyes are protected. The Laser is passed over the surface of the skin.

The laser pushes the energy, in the form of heat, deep into the layers of skin where elastin and collagen are activated, and cells begin to be renewed; the carbon is vaporised along with any dirt, oil and dead skin cells.

A soothing hydrogel-based mask containing hyaluronic acid and beta-glucan (β -GLUCAN) is then applied. It’s an innovative product that does not contain any parabens, sulfates, or phthalates. The mask formula has been developed specifically for post-laser application.

Skin is protected and SPF applied if appropriate.

No, it can brighten the skin but not reduce pigmentation.

For pigmentation reduction, see the advanced carbon facial.

If you have stubborn or severe pigmentation, we recommend you have the Tri-Wave laser treatment, which targets small areas.

​It is suitable for acne on the face or body, reducing P.A bacteria, but not suitable for very active/pustular acne; we recommend the IPL treatment if the acne is active/pustular.

Noticeable results can be experienced after a single treatment. For maximum results, 3-6 treatments are recommended, with an interval of 2 to 4 weeks in-between

A course of 6 or more treatments will stimulate new cell regeneration by encouraging the growth of collagen and elastin fibres, reducing fine lines.

If collagen induction is your main concern, we recommend Bio-Stimulators, or Microneedling.

Suitable for up to and including a Fitzpatrick skin type 4/5.

Westfield Clinic requires you to complete a short Medical Questionnaire at the time of booking, as some health conditions or medications prohibit you from laser treatments and would be unsafe for you at that time. It is important for the effectiveness of the treatment that you are generally fit and well and that your immune system is not compromised.

​

This treatment requires that you have a consultation and patch test. The treatment will be discussed fully and a series of 3 small patch tests (at various energies) will be carried out, enabling the correct parameters to be established and to check your skin's tolerance to light. Full treatment can then commence 3-14 days later following no adverse reactions.
