The Carbon Laser Peel, often called the “Hollywood Facial”, is a deep-cleansing, skin-detoxifying treatment designed to refine pores, smooth texture, and restore a healthy glow.

At You & Improved, we use the advanced Q-switched Nd:YAG laser to gently exfoliate the skin and remove impurities. A thin layer of medical-grade carbon lotion is applied to the face, acting like a magnet for excess oil, dead skin cells, and surface toxins.

The laser energy then targets the carbon particles, vaporising them along with the trapped debris — leaving the skin purified, refreshed, and instantly brighter.

You’ll notice an instant brightening and refreshed glow after your very first session. Skin feels renewed, soft, and smooth, with a visible reduction in open pores, excess oil, and blemishes.

The Carbon Laser Facial also helps to clear congestion and improve overall skin clarity, particularly in areas affected by sun damage, hormonal changes, or acne.

With continued treatments, you’ll see ongoing improvement in skin texture, tone, and balance — leaving your complexion clearer, calmer, and beautifully radiant.

The Carbon Laser Peel combines the purifying power of activated carbon with the precision of our Q-switched Nd:YAG laser.

A thin layer of carbon lotion is applied to the skin, where it absorbs excess oil, dirt, and impurities from deep within the pores. When the laser passes over the area, it gently heats and vaporises the carbon particles, taking with them dead skin cells, sebum, and bacteria.

This controlled process deeply cleanses the skin, stimulates collagen production, and improves overall tone and texture — leaving the complexion smoother, clearer, and naturally radiant with zero downtime.

For best results, we recommend a course of 3 to 6 treatments, spaced around 4 weeks apart. This allows your skin time to regenerate between sessions while progressively improving clarity, texture, and radiance.

Many clients choose to continue with monthly maintenance sessions to keep their complexion clear, balanced, and glowing all year round.

Your practitioner will tailor a treatment plan specifically to your skin type, concerns, and lifestyle to achieve the most effective, long-lasting results.

One of the biggest advantages of the Carbon Laser Facial is that it requires no downtime — you can return to your normal activities immediately after treatment.

After your facial, we recommend avoiding exfoliating products, active ingredients, and direct sun exposure for 24–48 hours. Always use a broad-spectrum SPF to protect your freshly treated skin.

Your practitioner will provide bespoke aftercare advice to maintain your results and keep your complexion smooth, balanced, and glowing.
