What’s called the "Hollywood Facial" is really a mix of medical-grade carbon cream therapy and laser treatment. It is clinically known as a carbon laser peel or carbon laser facial.Â
Â
It starts with applying a special liquid carbon mask that acts like a super magnet. It adheres to your dead skin cells, the dirt and the oil on the skin. This technique was originally documented in the year 1997 and since then is being used for many purposes.Â

Initially, an activated carbon mask is applied and left for 10 min. This allows carbon to stick to the dead cells and the dirt. Then using a laser beam, these carbon particles are “poped” leading to the removal of the dead skin, extra oil, and dirt. The laser also gently warms the skin underneath, which might help boost collagen, the protein that keeps skin firm.
Â
The carbon peel laser technique provides a peeling effect that cleans the skin surface and plugged pores. This process helps remove accumulated dead cells at the hair follicle openings. By doing so, it unblocks the clearance of sebum to the skin surface.
Â
While it gives your skin a quick glow for special events, dermatologists say it’s more of a fancy deep clean than a major makeover. Always get it done by a trained professional to stay safe and get the best results.
