How is a Laser Carbon Peel performed?

A Laser Carbon Peel at DermaPlus Aesthetics in Kingwood, Texas, begins with applying liquid carbon on your skin, which will work to absorb oil, dirt, and dead skin, effectively clearing your pores. After the carbon has dried on your skin, the laser portion of the treatment will begin. As the laser passes across your face, the carbon will heat up and bind to the top layer of your skin. This treatment is done with the industry-leading PicoCare Laser System. The heat that is generated from the laser stimulates collagen production, working to remodel your skin from within, on a cellular level. The new collagen helps to smooth over fine lines and wrinkles, as well as maintain the elasticity of your skin!

The carbon is then removed from your skin with pulses from a stronger laser. Because carbon particles are highly attracted to laser light, it is broken up and absorbed during these pulses, pulling out any of the impurities that was once on the skin. This gives deep exfoliation, and reveals new, glowing skin.
