HOLLYWOOD FACIAL
Advanced laser peel
Hollywood Facial (or Carbon Laser Facial, Carbon Laser Rejuvenation) is suitable for both men and women. The treatment can assist with issues associated with pigmentation, age spots, acne, wrinkles and large pores. It also helps to brighten the skin and complexion resulting in a more even skin tone. The carbon laser facial is very popular in Asia and is sometimes referred to as the China Doll Facial.
WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE OF LASER CARBON PEEL (HOLLYWOOD FACIAL)?
A layer of carbon is applied to the entire face in a lotion that is allowed to dry over a period of 15 minutes. Then, the laser is used to create an implosion of the carbon particles. The laser light is absorbed by the carbon paste focusing the laser energy on the epidermis. As the laser moves across the skin the carbon paste is gently vacuumed up, exfoliating the skin and removing any debris in the pores. The treatment minimises pore sizes and the thermal effect of the laser stimulates collagen renewal.
FACIAL HAIR /Â SENSITIVE
We can’t treat areas of dense facial hair. However, stubble or clean shaved areas will usually require a topical anaesthetic to reduce pain and sensitivity in men. This is available for an additional $40 for the full face. Both men and women can choose anaesthetic if they prefer. The treatment is generally well tolerated though, with a feeling similar to pins and needles.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THE CARBON LASER FACIAL?
Improvement in pore size
Improvement in active acne
Increased tone of the skin
Collagen and elastin stimulation
A cleaner complexion

HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED?
All Carbon Laser Facials are recommended to be spaced every 1-4 weeks. This gives your skin ample time to produce additional collagen and elastin. The more treatments performed the better the long-term results in reducing both pore size and minimising wrinkles.
