What is a Carbon Facial?
A Carbon Facial is a laser-based skin treatment that uses a medical-grade carbon lotion combined with laser energy to exfoliate, purify and stimulate collagen production.
The carbon absorbs oil, debris and dead skin cells from deep within the pores. When the laser is passed over the skin, it gently heats and removes the carbon, taking impurities with it while stimulating skin renewal.

What to Expect During a Carbon Facial (Step by Step)
Step 1: Skin Cleansing
Your skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove makeup, oil and surface impurities.
Step 2: Carbon Application
A thin layer of medical-grade carbon lotion is applied to the skin and allowed to penetrate deep into the pores.
Step 3: Laser Treatment
The laser is passed over the skin, targeting the carbon particles. This process:
- Exfoliates dead skin cells
- Clears congestion from pores
- Gently heats the skin to stimulate collagen
Step 4: Skin Protection
The treatment is completed with soothing skincare and SPF protection.
