Carbon Facial

WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN GETTING A CARBON LASER FACIAL

The China Doll Facial was once known as the Carbon Laser Facial. For a long time, it has been a very popular treatment. This is likely due to the fact that it was a safe laser treatment that promised patients brighter, more radiant skin and deep layer rejuvenation with a lower risk of hyper/hypo pigmentation, particularly for people with darker skin types. Other advantages of this treatment included the removal of surface dirt, oil, and dead skin cells, as well as the reduction of the acne-causing P. Acnes bacteria. Perhaps it was because of these advantages that it caught the attention of Hollywood’s top estheticians, who dubbed it the Hollywood Peel (also known as the Hollywood Laser Peel).

The principle is the same no matter what name you give it. CLF (carbon laser facial) is a non-ablative laser skin treatment that uses carbon’s conductive properties to exfoliate, cleanse, clear, and tighten pores, brighten and even skin tone, and activate a deeply rejuvenating skin reaction that results in skin that is smooth, plump, and radiant!

How does Carbon Facial Treatment work?

A thin opaque layer of carbon paste, cream, or lotion is applied to clean skin and allowed to reach skin temperature for 10 to 20 minutes. As the carbon dries, it adheres to dirt, oil, and dead skin cells on the skin’s surface. The carbon has reached the point where it can meet the laser.

The carbon is attracted to the laser light. The light energy is absorbed by carbon. A small explosion occurs as a result of the reaction. The energy is pushed deep into the layers of the skin in the form of heat, where elastin and collagen are activated and cells begin to produce again. Meanwhile, as the explosion occurs, carbon is vaporized along with any dirt, oil, or dead skin cells on the skin’s surface. With all the explosions and vaporizing, it might sound a little scary, but don’t worry. There isn’t much discomfort or pain. A mild tingling or slight pinch has been described as the sensation.

The skin will feel slightly warm at the end of the treatment. The skin is plump and smooth as a baby’s bottom. There is a more consistent tone. The appearance of fine lines is reduced. Pores have become tighter. These effects appear almost instantly and will last for several days.

The heat energy released by the explosion is responsible for the skin’s appearance and feel of plumpness and tightness, as well as the noticeable reduction in fine lines. The skin’s natural healing mechanisms are activated in the deeper layers of the skin as heat is pulsed deep into the skin. The rate of cellular turnover is accelerated. Fibroblasts are activated, causing collage and elastin to regenerate. The regenerative effects will last for a few weeks to months. Multiple treatments are recommended for long-term improvement in skin tone, firmness, and radiance.
