The carbon absorbs oil and debris from the pores, and the laser energy gently heats and lifts it away. The treatment may help oily skin, the appearance of enlarged pores, mild pigmentation and dullness, and many patients choose it as a glow-up treatment before a wedding or event.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it may suit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeople with oily or congested skin and visible pores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose with dull, tired-looking skin who want a brighter appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatients with mild uneven tone or superficial pigmentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome patients with mild acne-prone skin, after assessment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Causes and Types\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcess oil production, often linked to hormones and humid climates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild-up of dead skin cells that makes skin look dull\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSun exposure and pollution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMild pigmentation after breakouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the treatment is done\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe skin is cleansed and a thin layer of carbon lotion is applied and allowed to dry. A laser is first passed over the skin to warm the carbon, then a second pass breaks up the carbon layer, lifting it from the surface. Eye protection is worn throughout. The treatment takes around 30 to 45 minutes. A course of 3 to 6 sessions, 2 to 4 weeks apart, is often recommended, although some people have single sessions before events.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDowntime and recovery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMild redness or warmth for a few hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo peeling for most people, so normal activities can resume the same day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight make-up can usually be applied the following day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRisks and aftercare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarbon laser is generally well tolerated.
