Question 1

How does the Carbon Facial work?

Accepted Answer

A carbon formula is applied to the face and acts as a photo-enhancer — the Q-switched laser is drawn to it, gently exfoliating the surface as it works. The same laser energy also penetrates the deeper layers of skin to support collagen production.

Question 2

What does the Carbon Facial feel like?

Accepted Answer

It's a painless treatment. You'll hear a slight snapping sound and feel a warm sensation as the laser passes over your skin. Some flushing afterwards is normal and usually settles within 24 hours.

Question 3

How many Carbon Facial treatments do I need?

Accepted Answer

Most clients book a course of treatments to support their skin goals. As a result of repeated treatments, the tone of the skin becomes more even, the texture improves and the complexion brightens.

Question 4

How often can I have the Carbon Facial?

Accepted Answer

We recommend 2–4 week intervals between treatments. Spacing sessions this way, combined with the correct home care, helps you get the most out of each appointment.

Question 5

Is there any downtime after a Carbon Facial?

Accepted Answer

No — there's no downtime. You can return to work and your usual routine immediately after treatment.

Question 6

Who is the Carbon Facial suitable for?

Accepted Answer

The Carbon Facial is suitable for all skin tones and types. It's not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for clients currently on Roaccutane.

Question 7

What aftercare do I need after a Carbon Facial?

Accepted Answer

Avoid exercise for 12 hours and any heat-based treatments to your face for 7 days. Skip prolonged UV exposure for 28 days, and use SPF with antioxidant protection daily.
