Laser carbon facial peeling: effect of the procedure, prices, reviews and photos of the face before and after carbon peeling. Contraindications and rules for skin care after carbon peeling

Carbon peeling is an innovative technology that allows you to tidy up young and mature skin. This treatment method is based on laser exposure.

Carbon peeling essentially combines 2 methods at once:

laser;
photorejuvenation;

The method got its name because during the procedure a gel is used, which contains mineral oils and nanoparticles of carbon dioxide (from the Latin word Carbon - carbon):

The gel is able to penetrate into the pores and deep layers of the epidermis and attract all kinds of contaminants. This natural property of carbon to absorb was used to implement this method.
The carbon catalyst amplifies a short pulse that lasts literally a nanosecond. A kind of cream explosion occurs both on the surface and in the pores. Such disinfection relieves the sebaceous glands from painful microflora that causes inflammation, and also contributes to their narrowing.
Everything unnecessary is simply removed by laser, along with carbon particles on which dirt has adhered.

The effect on the epidermis lasts literally a few seconds, which is why the laser does not injure the skin at all, and the exfoliation process itself is gentle.

The duration usually does not exceed 20 minutes. In some cases, you can limit yourself to one session, however, for a serious and long-term result, you need to carry out at least 5 procedures, with a break of 5-6 days.

Reviews from cosmetologists

Irina: “Carbon peeling is a procedure that I recommend for all women because of its versatility. It is perfect for those who have young, oily skin, those who are just beginning to develop wrinkles, and those who have had them for a long time.

Often, with its help, several problems that the patient suffers from are solved at once. The most important thing is to contact a competent specialist so that the procedure is carried out correctly.

Elena Sergeevna: “I highly recommend this type of peeling to those who have problem skin. All troubles in the form of increased greasiness, pimples, inflammation and acne scars disappear after just a couple of treatments.

It is also perfect for those with older skin who also suffer from enlarged pores on their face. Having seen the result after the first time, please do not give up on care, but complete the entire course to get a stable effect. It is enough to carry out only 1-2 courses per year for the skin to look healthy.”

Ekaterina: “Carbon care is truly a very gentle procedure and is suitable for almost everyone. I highly recommend it to women living in big cities: due to the environment and stress, their skin becomes sluggish, pale, without a natural blush.

The fact is that dead epidermal cells literally cover our face, on the one hand, clogging the pores, and on the other hand, preventing nutrients from penetrating inside.

The peeling procedure, exfoliating dead cells, gives impetus to skin regeneration and the production of collagen, which provides elasticity. After this, you will notice the effect of using your cream: it will be absorbed faster, reaching the deep layers of the epidermis.

Add to this effect the smoothing of fine wrinkles, the regulation of sebaceous glands and the elimination of post-acne, and you will understand why this type of peeling is now extremely popular.”

Stages of implementation

It is worth noting that this procedure is perfect for people with a busy schedule, because it takes no more than 40 minutes and contains only 2 stages.

First, the skin is carefully cleansed of makeup and impurities, and then carbon nanogel is applied. As soon as it is sufficiently absorbed into the skin and dries, it is treated with a special laser. It heats up the gel nanoparticles, which leads to the removal of all toxins and dead cells. This stage is intended to clean the surface layers.

This is followed by a deeper effect using laser photothermolysis. The tissues are deeply heated, thereby enhancing the processes of skin restoration and the production of necessary substances in the dermal layer. That is, if the first stage serves for cleaning, then the second starts all the necessary processes in the skin. Upon completion, apply moisturizer. If peeling is carried out for the purpose of rejuvenation, then it may also include a special massage.

The number of procedures is determined by the cosmetologist; as a rule, 3 to 5 sessions are required to obtain the desired effect. The result depends on the professionalism of the specialist, so before you go for carbon peeling, read reviews about the chosen beauty salon and ask if the specialist has the appropriate diplomas.

Reviews from women

Marina, 23 years old: “I struggled with acne for 14 years in a variety of ways, but even if something helped, it was only for a short time. The peeling was a great help in dealing with acne and small scars that were all over my face.

At first I was quite skeptical about the process, but after the first session I realized that this was something! I saw the real effect after 3 times: the depth and intensity of the scars decreased significantly, and the rashes on the face simply stopped.

There is some peeling after each session, but it is really minor and does not cause any inconvenience. The price of the procedure, of course, is not very cheap, but since it really helps, you don’t mind investing money in yourself. At the end of the year I want to repeat the course again!”

Svetlana, 37 years old: “I had the procedure done on my entire face and neck. I can’t say that I had a lot of wrinkles, but the folds on my forehead and nasolabial folds really bothered me.

The effect of the device is not painful, although it is done with a laser. Only a thermal effect and slight tingling sensations were felt. My redness went away within a day or so. I didn’t feel any discomfort or severe peeling at all.

Well, at least no more than after using an ordinary scrub for several days. The wrinkles are really smoothing out, I was especially pleased with the result on the forehead area: even the deep wrinkle in the middle became less noticeable, and the small ones disappeared altogether! In general, why inject something; a laser activates natural processes?”

Olga, 35 years old: “I decided to have a procedure to somehow reduce the appearance of acne on the T-zone and remove the gray complexion. Of course, it’s not cheap, but the main thing is that there is a result!

The treatment lasted 15-20 minutes. While I was lying there, I felt only the pleasant effect of warmth. After this, the doctor advised to use the most ordinary moisturizer, and on the first day after the procedure - an antiseptic.

But the very next day, almost all the redness disappeared. A month has already passed since my course, and I noticed that the oiliness of my skin has decreased, and my skin is smooth, elastic and more radiant. Acne also did not appear during this period. Definitely worth doing!”

Impact zones

The most popular impact areas:

face;
neck;
décolleté area;

This is where most often occur:

acne;
inflammation;
irritation;
wrinkles appear;

You can choose to treat a single zone or purchase a whole package for 3 areas at once, which is more effective:

If there are certain problems, laser treatment of the back or shoulders is also possible.
Carbon peeling is used to treat the area of the hands to get rid of dryness and wrinkles, as well as the feet if you suffer from fungal diseases or have cracks, and will also effectively help regulate sweating of the palms and feet.

What types of peelings are prohibited during pregnancy?

Prohibited peeling during pregnancy:

Retinol cleansing. May have a negative impact on the formation and development of the fetus, as well as worsen the initial condition of the skin.
Carbon peeling. Anesthetics penetrate into the blood, which can cause dark spots or inflammation, and also have a negative effect on the fetus.
Laser exfoliation. The optimal time for this is no earlier than six months after birth.
Manual cleaning. Due to the deterioration of the immune system, the risk of infection and spread increases significantly, which can harm the child.
Cleansing with salicylic acid. Often causes an allergic reaction and can lead to pimples or dark spots. There is also a risk of developing defects in the fetus. Severe peeling is noted during the rehabilitation period - this can negatively affect the functioning of the nervous system of a pregnant girl and lead to deviations in the development of the child.

Advantages and disadvantages

There are many types of peeling, however, this one has a number of advantages over others:

It is painless and does not cause discomfort. Also, no local anesthetic is required. During the session, only a slight tingling or tingling sensation and a thermal effect are felt.
This type of peeling is carried out in any weather and does not limit the time it is carried out - in winter and autumn. However, in any case, it is better to refrain from using a solarium.
Peeling does not require , unlike other traditional types of cleaning, a rehabilitation period. Literally after half an hour, the redness goes away, and you calmly return to your rhythm of life.
You can see the effect However, those who are determined to see real results should do a course of 5-7 sessions, depending on the severity of the problems.
As a result, healthy epidermis is not damaged at all, but dead ones are only removed.
This type of peeling is truly delicate. Old, obsolete cells peel off gradually.

Carbon care has no obvious disadvantages.

Among them it should be noted:

If there are inflammatory processes and open purulent wounds on the face, then they are first eliminated before starting peeling.
To conduct a full course , you will have to pay a decent amount.

Care after carbon peeling

This procedure for correcting and renewing the skin is very gentle and does not require complex restoration with a large list of restrictions.

However, proper care for up to three days will still be required. What not to do after carbon peeling :

It is necessary to avoid abrasive cleansers and scrubs.
For a couple of days, we leave aside any products containing alcohol or with acids - in washes, tonics, lotions and other cosmetics.
Do not use soap to wash your face.
For the first day, you cannot use powder, foundation, correctors, blush and other cosmetics, except for those used for the eyes, eyebrows and lips.
Avoid solariums and beach holidays.
Avoid swimming pools, saunas and other bath procedures.

Carrying out the procedure

The session goes as follows:

At the first appointment , the doctor identifies possible contraindications in order to decide whether a treatment session can be carried out using this method.
A test is done to determine how sensitive the patient is to the carboxylic acid. To do this, apply the gel to the crook of your elbow or hand and wait about 15 minutes. If after removing it there is no redness, you can proceed to the main stage. If the epidermis reacts with swelling or the appearance of red spots, then it is better to look for another method.
If the test is positive , then the face is thoroughly cleaned with an antiseptic.
After treatment , the cosmetologist applies a nanogel, which has a characteristic black color, to the treated part of the face. It is thanks to him that dead cells are exfoliated and inflammatory processes are eliminated. The gel is not applied to the area around the eyes and mouth.
After the gel has dried , the treatment is carried out with laser pulses. They are the ones who stimulate processes, affecting the deepest layers. When exposed to laser, protective glasses must be used.
Then, the process of photothermolysis is carried out , which is carried out using laser pulses. At this stage, the production of collagen is activated, which provides the skin with elasticity, healthy color and youth.
After the procedure, the skin is treated with an antiseptic.

The essence of the procedure

Laser peeling helps fight pigmentation and other imperfections of the dermis. The essence of the procedure is the complex use of a laser device and carbon nanogel. Carbon peeling gel prepares the epidermis for cleaning and enhances the processes occurring in the layers of the skin. The laser generates a thermal pulse that affects the cellular level. The number of sessions depends on the type of skin.

Sensitive and dry dermis are more susceptible to the effects of the laser device, so the maximum result is visible after 3–5 procedures. Those with problematic and oily skin will need 8–10 sessions. Peeling takes place in several stages, which include:

cleaning;
applying gel;
heat treatment.

Ultrasound serves as a preparatory procedure. It allows you to disinfect the epidermis, loosen its surface layer and enhance the effect of carbon peeling. Peeling principle:

After application, the gel dries, glues the keratinized layers of the dermis and accelerates the removal of impurities and toxins, removing impurities and sebum.
First of all, the laser warms up the skin covered with gel. As the product evaporates, it is converted into water and carbon dioxide, which is why it is called “carbon nanogel.” At this time, the skin is completely cleansed, the gel acts as an absorbent.
The laser affects the deep layers of the skin, normalizing blood circulation and nutrition at the cellular level. The heat impulse stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, increases the turgor of the dermis and tightens it. The process is called photothermolysis.

Carbon gel is carbon dioxide that has a beneficial effect on the skin. It has the following properties:

disinfects the skin and kills pathogenic microorganisms;
accelerates the process of skin cell regeneration;
normalizes blood flow and fat metabolism;
stops the spread of inflammatory processes to healthy areas of the dermis;
normalize cellular metabolism, which allows you to even out skin color.

In Russia, cosmetologists actively use Med Lazer equipment and a similar gel toner. It can be used not only for carbon peeling, but also during other cosmetic procedures. Carbon peeling is carried out using a neodymium laser with a power of no more than 500 mJ, the frequency of its flashes is 1-2 times per second. The laser is kept at a distance of 3–5 cm from the skin.

Effect and results

This procedure is perfect for those who prefer effective but gentle peeling:

With its help, cells are delicately exfoliated.
The procedure has a bactericidal effect.
occurring on the surface of the skin and in its inner layers are normalized
Even the largest pores are noticeably narrowed. Black dots disappear.
Elastin and collagen are produced , which means the skin becomes turgor and youthful.
The pale, sallow complexion is eliminated .
As a nice bonus , light, thin hairs disappear on the skin of the face.

Why do you need peeling?

Peeling is the procedure for removing the top layer of skin. It starts a faster regeneration process. The fact is that with age, the rate of natural skin renewal decreases. More and more dead cells remain on its surface. This leads to dull complexion, the appearance of wrinkles, inflammation and other imperfections. With regular exfoliation, all of these problems can be eliminated or prevented from occurring. Peels are:

Physical (use abrasive particles, for example, scrubs);
Chemical (use chemicals, such as acids);
Hardware (use laser systems or ultrasound).

Care and cost

The skin, in most cases, calms down after an hour of the procedure. Some patients experience mild redness for 1-2 days. Therefore, the usual way of life can be continued immediately after leaving the office.

And although there is no rehabilitation period after a peeling session, you will need special care:

After the procedure , it is better not to wash your face until the next morning.
It is better to wipe the skin with chlorhexidine, miramistin or similar antiseptics for 2 days .
products containing retinol or glycolic acid for 2-3 days Alcohol-based lotions are not recommended so as not to further irritate the skin.
to carry out the procedure at the end of the week so that the redness and slight peeling go away over the weekend. To speed up the regeneration process, the doctor will advise you to apply a moisturizer.
You can easily use cosmetics only after 2-3 days and it is best to avoid sunbathing and solariums in the near future. You can also use sunscreen for 2 weeks to prevent dark spots from appearing.
After the session, do not do any other cosmetic procedures for 10 days.
Before carrying out the next similar procedure, give your skin a rest for 5-6 days.

The price of the session will depend both on the city and on the prestige and salon where you are doing it, as well as on the zone.

On average, the following prices can be taken as a basis:

neck – 2100-2300 rubles;
forehead – 1500-1800 rubles;
cheeks – 2500-2700 rubles;

What problems arise with the skin during pregnancy?

The body of a pregnant woman is more vulnerable, and therefore most factors that previously seemed harmless to it become dangerous. Dramatic changes in hormonal levels affect both the psychological state and appearance of a woman. For example, in the first trimester the following may appear on the skin:
