Carbon Laser Peel by Encore
A carbon laser peel, also known as a “Hollywood peel,” is a cosmetic procedure that uses laser energy to remove the top layer of dead skin cells and improve the appearance of skin imperfections such as fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, acne, and uneven skin tone. The procedure typically takes around 30 minutes and can be done on the face, neck, chest, and hands. The laser energy is absorbed by a carbon lotion that is applied to the skin before the procedure, which helps to target the dead skin cells and minimize damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. After the procedure, the skin may appear red and slightly swollen for a few days, but recovery time is usually minimal. Contact us at Encore Medical Rejuvenation to learn more about this treatment.

What is a Carbon Laser Peel or Carbon Facial?
An aesthetic technique provided by Encore known as a “carbon laser peel” or “carbon facial” employs laser light along with carbon to remove the top layer of dead skin cells and reduce the appearance of skin flaws such as fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, acne, and uneven skin tone. The procedure begins with the application of a carbon lotion or gel on the skin, which is then activated by a laser. The laser energy is absorbed by the carbon particles, which helps to heat and remove the top layer of dead skin cells and impurities, while also stimulating collagen production. The procedure typically takes around 30 minutes, and can be done on the face, neck, chest, and hands. The procedure can be done with various types of laser such as q-switched laser or fractional laser. After the procedure, the skin may appear red and slightly swollen for a few days, but recovery time is usually minimal.

Why use carbon with a laser peel?
Carbon is used in a laser peel because it absorbs the laser energy and helps to target the top layer of dead skin cells and impurities on the skin. When the carbon lotion or gel is applied to the skin and then activated by the laser, it heats up and causes the top layer of dead skin cells to break apart and peel off, revealing the healthier skin underneath. The carbon also works as a photosensitizer, which means that it makes the skin more sensitive to the laser energy. This allows the laser to penetrate deeper into the skin and reach the lower layers, where it can stimulate collagen production. This results in an improvement in skin texture and tone, as well as a reduction in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, and acne. Additionally, carbon is a safe and effective way to exfoliate the skin and remove impurities without causing damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. It’s also less invasive and less painful compared to other chemical peels.

Carbon Peel, Aftercare
After a carbon laser peel, it is important to take good care of your skin to ensure proper healing and minimize the risk of complications. The following are some general guidelines for aftercare:
- Avoid sun exposure: The skin will be more sensitive to the sun after the procedure, so it is important to protect it with sunscreen and avoid spending too much time outdoors.
- Keep the skin clean: Gently clean the treated area with a mild cleanser and lukewarm water. Avoid using hot water, which can cause irritation.
- Avoid picking or scratching at the skin: Do not pick or scratch at the skin, as this can cause irritation and delay healing.
- Avoid using harsh products: Avoid using exfoliating scrubs, acids, or other harsh products on the treated area for at least a week, as these can cause irritation and delay healing.
- Avoid sweating: Avoid sweating, saunas, steam rooms, and other activities that will cause excessive sweating on the treated area.
- Moisturize: Keep the treated area moisturized with a gentle moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated and to prevent dryness.
- Keep the area cool: Applying cold compresses to the treated area can help reduce redness, swelling, and discomfort.
It is also recommended to follow the aftercare instructions provided at your time of treatment at Encore Medical Rejuvenation. If you notice any signs of infection, such as redness, warmth, and pus, or if you experience severe pain or a rash, please contact your provider.

Encore Medi Rejuvenation is a beautiful and welcoming Medi spa. The front staff are incredibly lovely and very helpful. I have been getting Hydrafacials with Jara for the past several months and I am so pleased with the results. I am a monthly visitor and have also done microblading with Jara. She is very sweet and very thorough with both the Hydrafacial and microblading. I haven't tried the other services but am looking forward to trying them the future. Highly recommend this Medi spa!
