What’s involved?
Carbon Facial treatment combines laser/IPL technology with a special carbon cream applied to the facial region. The laser/IPL and carbon cream work in synergy to reduce skin imperfections such as enlarged pores, hyperpigmentation, acne and expression lines, while also purifying and toning skin for an instantly radiant complexion.
Treatment is quick, non-invasive, and there’s no post-treatment downtime — so you can get back to work or your usual daily activities following your session. Some redness may occur, which will usually subside within a few hours.
How many treatments do I need?
Although you will notice glowing results after just 1 treatment, a course of around 6 treatments is recommended for long-lasting anti-ageing effects, as well as clear, healthy skin for months to come.

How often can I get a Carbon Facial?
Treatments are spaced out 4 weeks apart (i.e once a month), in order to allow the skin regenerative process of the facial to take full effect.
Is it safe?
Yes, Carbon Facials are safe. A thorough skin consultation will be performed prior to the facial to ensure the treatment is adequately matched to your skin’s needs.
Is it painful?
While you will feel a warm and tingly sensation during treatment, it is not painful. Most clients comfortably undergo treatment without the need for topical numbing creams.
Am I suitable for a Carbon Facial Treatment?
Carbon Facials offer a gentle, yet highly effective, alternative to chemical peels and therefore an ideal treatment for most skin types. Carbon Facials are popular with men and women of all ages seeking solutions for acne, acne scarring, pigmentation and the signs of ageing. Your individual needs will be discussed during your consultation.
What can I expect on the day of my facial?
Carbon Facials are performed on clean, makeup-free skin. The treatment takes around 30-40 minutes, and you are free to get on with your day as usual afterwards. Some skin redness may occur, but this will subside within a few hours. Following treatment, it is advised to apply SPF sunscreen for protection.
