How It Works

Carbon draws out excess oil and impurities. Light then clears them away, leaving skin smoother and brighter.

What Each Part Does

Carbon: A thin layer settles into your pores and binds to excess oil and impurities.
Laser: Our [Toro] laser then passes over the skin, targeting the carbon and lifting it away along with what it has gathered. Its gentle warmth also helps tighten the look of pores, calm oil production and encourage fresh collagen.

Questions

Something else on your mind? Call 514-983-3409, or ask at your complimentary consultation.

Does it hurt?

No. Most people feel gentle warmth and a light snapping on the skin. No numbing is needed.

Is there downtime?

None. Any redness fades within a few hours. Slight dryness or flaking is possible in the first few days, so keep your skin clean and moisturized.

How many sessions will I need?

It’s done as a series, with a session every 2 to 4 weeks. After that, regular sessions keep the results going.

How long do results last?

Several weeks to a few months. Your skin looks brighter right away, and regular sessions keep the results going.

How is it different from a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a medical-grade solution applied to the skin, which then peels over the next few days. A carbon laser peel uses a fine layer of carbon and a laser instead, with no downtime: at most, slight dryness or flaking in the first few days.

Is it good before an event?

Yes, it’s a popular choice before an event. Skin looks brighter and feels smoother right away, and any redness fades within a few hours. Slight dryness or flaking is possible in the first few days.
