Note that the carbon laser peel is a very fast procedure and will take only 30 minutes overall.

Here are the steps of a typical laser carbon peel:

‍

• The dermatologist will spread a layer of liquid carbon onto your face so that it starts absorbing oil, dead skin cells, and skin impurities from deep within the pores, and you'll wait around 10 minutes for the carbon liquid to dry.
• Once the carbon dries, the doctor will protect your eyes from the laser with eye shields.
• He will then pass the laser over your skin in a low-energy setting to heat the carbon and the subdermal tissue, stimulating collagen production along the way.
• The dermatologist may skip the heating step if you suffer from dark patches like pregnancy marks.
• The laser will then be put on a higher-energy setting to fragment the liquid carbon into tiny particles.
• The doctor will then use a smoke evaporator attached to the laser to remove the carbon and other remaining impurities.
• The last step will be applying hydrating moisturizer and sunscreen to your skin after treatment.
