Laser Facial / Carbon Laser Peel

Are you ready to embrace a skincare revolution that promises luminous, flawless skin? Are you tired of battling stubborn imperfections that seem to resist every remedy? Look no further, because the answer lies in the Carbon Laser Peel. The Carbon Laser Peel isn’t just a treatment; it’s an experience that will transport you to a world where blemishes and imperfections become nothing but a distant memory. Say goodbye to dullness, uneven skin tone, and pesky imperfections – and say hello to a rejuvenated you that shines like never before.

What Is Laser Facial / Carbon Laser Peel?

A carbon laser peel, also known as a “China Doll Peel” or “Black Doll Facial,” is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that treats a wide variety of skin conditions and concerns. This exceptional treatment involves applying a carbon-based solution, followed by a cutting-edge Q-Switched YAG Laser that sweeps away impurities, leaving your skin remarkably revitalised. This state of the art aesthetic technology is comfortable and can be used in conjunction with our other treatments, including microdermabrasion and chemical peels.

This treatment is often used to improve the appearance of skin imperfections, such as enlarged pores, uneven texture, fine lines, and mild acne scars. The procedure is considered a type of laser skin resurfacing.

At Victorian Cosmetic Dermal Clinics Melbourne, we offer laser facial treatment at both our Berwick and Camberwell clinics.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Laser Facial / Carbon Laser Peel

How Does Laser Facial / Carbon Laser Peel Work?
A Carbon Laser Peel (not to be confused with a chemical peel) involves applying a thin layer of liquid carbon to the skin’s surface, which absorbs impurities. A laser is then used to target the carbon particles, vaporising them along with dead skin cells and stimulating collagen production. At Victorian Cosmetic Dermal Clinics Melbourne, this safe and effective treatment is performed using Q-Switched YAG Laser. The laser’s energy also generates a thermal effect on the deeper layers of the skin, thus stimulating collagen remodelling and tightening of the skin, which can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and pores.
What Are The Benefits of Laser Facial / Carbon Laser Peel?
Laser facials offer several benefits for improving skin quality and appearance. These benefits can include:

  • Reduced facial wrinkles and fine lines
  • Improvement in enlarged pores
  • Deep pore cleansing
  • Improved skin tone and texture
  • Reduced pigmentation
  • Collagen stimulation
  • Quick recovery
  • Non-Invasive;
  • Customisable treatment plans; and
  • Minimal discomfort
Who Is A Suitable Candidate For Laser Facial / Carbon Laser Peel?

During your initial consultation, our experienced skin therapists will be able to provide personalised advice based on your unique situation and help you make an informed decision about whether a laser facial/carbon laser peel is right for you.

What is the Difference Between a Regular Facial and a Laser Facial?
A regular facial and a laser facial differ in their techniques and outcomes. A regular facial at your local beauty spa primarily focuses on relaxation and cleansing through massage and aromatherapy, leaving you feeling relaxed with clean and glowing skin.

In contrast, a laser facial employs advanced aesthetic technology to stimulate natural collagen production. The immediate post-laser facial result is a softer and more youthful complexion due to the collagen boost. While a regular facial provides soothing benefits, a laser facial offers more pronounced skin rejuvenation effects.

Does Laser Facial / Carbon Laser Peel Hurt?
Laser facials typically cause minimal to no discomfort. During treatment you’ll feel a warm sensation that some patients describe as relaxing and comfortable. The procedure is generally well-tolerated, and many individuals find it to be relatively painless. Rest assured that our highly trained professionals prioritise your safety and well-being throughout the entire process.
How Many Laser Facials Do I Need?
At VC Dermal Clinics Melbourne, our team of skilled therapists employ the Q-switched YAG laser to tailor laser facial treatments according to your unique skin type and specific concerns. To achieve optimal and sustained skin improvements, we recommend a series of consistent laser facial sessions. Based on our patients’ experiences, the most effective approach involves undergoing a minimum of 4 laser facials spaced every 2 to 5 weeks, with a recommended maximum of 10 sessions. Following this initial series, maintaining a healthy and radiant complexion can be sustained by scheduling regular laser facials every 1 to 3 months.
How Long Does A Laser Facial Take?
The duration for laser facial varies but typically ranges from 15 to 30 minutes, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
Is There Any Downtime After Laser Facial?
There’s minimal downtime, and patients can typically return to their routine right after the procedure.
What Will My Skin Look Like After Laser Facial?
After a laser facial, your skin may exhibit immediate changes that can vary based on factors such as your skin type, the intensity of the treatment, and your individual response to the procedure. Generally, you can expect:

  • Mild Pinkness: Some temporary pinkness or mild redness can occur, but this usually subsides within a few hours to a day.
  • Possible Flaking: In the days following the treatment, you might experience light peeling or flaking as the exfoliated skin naturally sheds.
  • Possible Breakouts: Since laser facial treatments provide deep pore cleansing, some patients may experience mild skin breakouts as the congestion moves to the skin surface. Rest assured that these skin breakouts will only be temporary.
  • Increased Sensitivity: Your skin may be more sensitive to sunlight immediately after the treatment, so using sunscreen is essential.

It’s important to remember that individual responses can vary, and some people might experience these effects more prominently than others. Any side effects are generally temporary and manageable, and following proper post-treatment care instructions can help optimise your results and minimise any discomfort.

Are The Results Permanent?
While laser facials offer noticeable improvements, results are not permanent. Regular maintenance sessions are recommended to sustain the benefits.
What Is The Laser Facial Aftercare?
Laser facial aftercare involves the following steps to ensure optimal healing and results:

  • Sun Protection: Wear sunscreen (SPF 30+) and limit sun exposure for a few days.
  • Gentle Cleansing: Cleanse with a mild, non-abrasive cleanser.
  • Hydration: Use a gentle moisturiser to keep skin hydrated and drink plenty of water.
  • Avoid Heat: Steer clear of hot showers and saunas for a day or two.
  • Avoid Makeup: Skip makeup for at least 24 hours post-treatment.
  • Exfoliation Pause: Avoid exfoliating products temporarily.
  • Hands Off: Don’t touch or pick at treated areas.
  • Exercise Restraint: Skip intense exercise and sweating briefly.
  • Follow Instructions: Adhere to specific guidelines from your skin therapist for best results.
