Carbon Laser Peel. Your Secret to Instantly Radiant Skin.

Understanding the Carbon Laser Peel: The Famous “Hollywood Peel” Facial

Discover the revolutionary Carbon Laser Peel, the go-to treatment for achieving a flawless, photo-ready complexion with absolutely no downtime. Loved by celebrities and beauty insiders, this gentle yet powerful facial is your key to unlocking truly luminous skin.

What is a Hollywood Carbon Laser Peel?

The Hollywood Peel, or Carbon Laser Peel, is an advanced laser treatment that revitalises the skin for a smoother, brighter, and firmer appearance. It is a gentle, non-invasive procedure that uses a medical-grade carbon lotion and a state-of-the-art laser to deeply exfoliate the skin, unclog pores, and stimulate natural collagen production.

It’s the perfect solution for anyone seeking immediate rejuvenation without the recovery time associated with more aggressive peels.

The Benefits: What Can This Treatment Do for You?

Our clients choose the Hollywood Peel to address a variety of common skin concerns. The benefits include:

  • Instantly Brighter Complexion: Removes dull, dead skin cells to reveal a vibrant glow.
  • Reduced Pore Size: Deeply cleanses and tightens pores for a refined, smoother look.
  • Improved Skin Texture & Tone: Creates a soft, even texture and reduces pigmentation and fine lines.
  • Acne & Oil Control: Destroys acne-causing bacteria and shrinks oil-producing glands, leading to fewer breakouts.
  • Collagen Stimulation: Initiates a natural healing response that boosts collagen and elastin, firming the skin from within.
  • Flawless Makeup Application: Creates the perfect canvas for makeup to glide on smoothly.

How Does the Hollywood Peel Work? A Step-by-Step Guide

This quick and painless 30-minute treatment involves two simple steps:

  1. Application of Carbon Lotion: We begin by thoroughly cleansing your skin. A thin layer of medical-grade carbon lotion is then applied to your face. As it dries, the carbon particles act like tiny magnets, binding to impurities, oil, and dead skin cells deep within your pores.
  2. Gentle Laser Treatment: Next, a gentle Q-switched laser is passed over your skin. The laser’s energy is highly attracted to the carbon particles. This creates a “mini-explosion” effect as the laser instantly vaporises the carbon, taking the trapped dirt and oil with it. This process also delivers a controlled thermal effect deep into the skin, which stimulates collagen production for long-term firming benefits.

The entire procedure is comfortable, with most clients reporting only a mild warming sensation.

Is The Hollywood Peel Right For You?

This treatment is incredibly versatile and suitable for most skin types. It is particularly effective for individuals concerned with:

  • Oily or acne-prone skin
  • Enlarged or clogged pores
  • Blackheads and whiteheads
  • Dull skin and uneven texture
  • Fine lines and the first signs of ageing
  • Mild sun damage or hyperpigmentation

Aftercare: Zero Downtime, All Glow

One of the greatest advantages of the Hollywood Peel is the complete lack of downtime. You can immediately return to your daily activities looking refreshed and radiant.

To get the most out of your treatment, we recommend the following simple aftercare:

  • Protect Your Skin: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) daily. Your new skin will be more sensitive to the sun.
  • Be Gentle: Avoid using harsh exfoliants (like retinoids or scrubs) for a few days post-treatment.
  • Stay Hydrated: Moisturise regularly and drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and healthy.

Your Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Is the treatment painful?

    Not at all. Most clients feel nothing more than a slight tingling or warmth on the skin. It is a very comfortable and relaxing experience.

  2. When will I see results?

    You will see immediate results! Your skin will look brighter and feel smoother right after your first session. These results will continue to improve over the next few weeks as your collagen production increases.

  3. How many treatments will I need?

    While a single session provides a fantastic instant boost, a course of 3-6 treatments spaced 2-4 weeks apart is often recommended for more significant, long-lasting improvements.

  4. Are there any side effects?

    Side effects are very rare and mild. Some clients may experience slight redness immediately after the treatment, but this typically subsides within an hour.

  5. How is the Hollywood Peel different from a traditional chemical peel?

    While both treatments exfoliate the skin, they work very differently. A chemical peel uses acidic solutions to dissolve the top layers of skin, which can sometimes lead to visible peeling, redness, and a few days of downtime. The Hollywood Peel uses heat from a laser to vaporise impurities and exfoliate the skin without damaging the surface. This means it is much gentler and has absolutely no downtime, making it suitable for a wider range of skin types.

  6. Can I have this treatment if I have sensitive skin?

    The Hollywood Peel is considered very gentle and is safe for many people with sensitive skin. However, for conditions like active rosacea or eczema, a consultation is essential. Our skilled practitioners will carefully assess your skin’s condition to determine if this is the right treatment for you, or if an alternative would be more suitable. Your safety and skin health are our top priorities.

  7. Is it safe to have a Carbon Laser Peel during the summer?

    Yes, absolutely! In fact, it’s an excellent treatment for the summer months. It helps to control the excess oil and clogged pores that many of us experience in the heat and humidity. Because there is no downtime and it doesn’t make your skin peel, you can carry on with your summer plans. However, as with any skin treatment, diligent use of a high-quality, broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) is essential afterwards.

  8. What should I do to prepare for my appointment?

    Preparation is minimal, but for the best results, we recommend you avoid using strong exfoliants (like retinoids, AHAs, or BHAs) and tanning (including sunbeds and self-tanning lotions) on the treatment area for about 5-7 days before your appointment. Please come to your appointment with clean skin, free of makeup if possible.

  9. Are the results permanent?

    The immediate results, like the removal of dead skin cells and clearing of pores, will last for several weeks. The long-term benefits, such as collagen stimulation, can last for many months. However, our skin is constantly ageing and is affected by our lifestyle and environment. To maintain the results, we recommend a course of treatments followed by maintenance sessions once every few months. Think of it as a regular, deep-cleaning workout for your skin.

  10. Can this treatment remove deep wrinkles or acne scars?

    The Hollywood Peel is fantastic for softening fine lines, improving skin texture, and reducing the appearance of superficial acne marks. However, it is not designed to treat deep, dynamic wrinkles or significant pitted acne scars. For those concerns, we may recommend a more intensive treatment like HIFU or microneedling, which we can discuss during your personal consultation.
