Carbon Laser
Peeling of Face or Back

Appointment
Carbon Laser Peeling is a fast, low-discomfort laser facial or back treatment that clears pores, reduces oil, and refreshes uneven texture. We use Alma Harmony XL PRO with a carbon lotion to lift out debris and smooth the skin surface. It suits congested, acne‑prone, and dull skin and gives an immediate clean, matte look with better tone. Sessions are quick, with little to no downtime, so you can return to normal routine the same day. At Evolution Aesthetics, our doctors have high experience and adjust settings to your skin needs and area treated. We offer both Face and Back versions on Harmony XL Pro.

Clear pores, smoother tone, less oil — visible after one visit

Deep pore decongestion
Carbon draws out oil and debris; the laser blasts it away for cleaner pores without squeezing.
Fast appointments
Face takes about 20–30 minutes and back 30–45 minutes, so it fits a busy day.
Low discomfort, no needles
Most people feel only a light warmth and soft snapping on the skin.
Instant glow with texture boost
Skin looks brighter and feels smoother right after one treatment.
Ongoing oil and acne control
Regular sessions help reduce breakouts and shine for weeks at a time.
Non-invasive technology
Laser plus carbon lotion gives results without harsh chemicals or downtime.

Carbon + Q‑switched laser: deep cleansing and collagen-stimulating heat

We apply a thin layer of medical-grade carbon lotion to the skin. The carbon nanoparticles sink into pores and cling to oil, dead cells, and surface pollutants. Using the Alma Harmony XL PRO (Q‑switched Nd:YAG, typically 1064 nm), our doctor delivers short, high‑energy pulses. Carbon strongly absorbs this wavelength, so each pulse causes a tiny photoacoustic effect: the carbon rapidly heats and fragments, taking embedded debris with it. This lifts out pore contents and polishes the stratum corneum. At the same time, controlled dermal heating triggers a mild wound‑healing response, encouraging new collagen formation that can refine texture and lessen the look of enlarged pores over time. The device allows fine control of spot size, fluence, and repetition rate, which our experienced doctors adjust for the face or the thicker skin of the back. The result is cleaner pores, reduced oiliness, a brighter surface, and gradual improvement in tone and texture with a series of treatments.

Contraindications

Some conditions mean we should delay or avoid Carbon Laser Peeling. Our doctor will assess your skin and medical history before treatment.
  • Active skin infection, cold sores (herpes), or open wounds in the area
  • Recent sunburn or fresh tan in the treatment area
  • Use of isotretinoin within the last 6 months
  • Photosensitizing medicines (e.g., doxycycline) within the last 2 weeks
  • Severe active inflammatory acne nodules or cysts — may need to calm first
  • History of keloid scarring or poor wound healing
  • Uncontrolled skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis in the area
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding (postpone unless cleared by your clinician)
  • Recent chemical peel, microneedling, or laser in the last 2 weeks
  • Allergy or sensitivity to the carbon lotion ingredients

Fast sessions, steady improvement, and little downtime

Most people see a brighter look after one visit. For oil control, breakouts, and pore size, plan for 3–6 sessions spaced 2–4 weeks apart. Maintenance every 4–8 weeks helps keep pores clear and shine reduced. A typical session takes 20–30 minutes for the face and 30–45 minutes for the back. Before treatment: avoid tanning for 1–2 weeks, stop retinoids and strong acids for 3–5 days, and come with clean skin (no makeup, lotions, or heavy sunscreen on the area). If you are prone to cold sores, ask about antiviral prophylaxis. After treatment: expect mild pinkness for a few hours; use a gentle cleanser and a simple moisturizer; avoid hot showers, saunas, and gym for 24 hours; skip exfoliants, retinoids, and scrubs for 3–5 days; and wear broad‑spectrum SPF 30+ daily. Do not pick at the skin. Our highly experienced doctors set parameters for your skin type and area (face or back) to balance deep cleansing with comfort, and they will adapt your plan if you also use prescription acne care or other in‑clinic treatments.
