A carbon facial, also known as a carbon laser peel or charcoal peel, can have many benefits for your skin, including: Reduces fine lines and wrinkles A carbon facial can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Tightens pores The laser energy from a carbon facial can help tighten pores and reduce excess oil production. Reduces acne Carbon facials can help treat acne, blackheads, and whiteheads. The carbon absorbs oil, dirt, and bacteria from pores, which can help prevent future breakouts. Improves skin texture A carbon facial can help improve the texture of your skin and give it a more youthful radiance. Stimulates collagen growth The laser heats up the carbon, which binds to the epidermis and stimulates collagen production. Removes dead skin cells A carbon facial can help remove dead skin cells from the outermost layer of your skin. You should avoid direct sun exposure after a carbon facial, but you can use sunblock to minimize skin damage. You should also expect to see brighter, glowing skin immediately after the procedure. If you have sensitive skin, you might experience some slight pinking or reddening that should go away within an hour.
