Carbon Peeling and Laser Toning, performed with the advanced Helios III laser, is a non-invasive skin treatment that targets multiple skin concerns, such as uneven skin tone, pigmentation, fine wrinkles, tanning, and even laser hair bleaching. This innovative treatment combines the deep cleansing power of carbon with laser technology to rejuvenate the skin, giving it a radiant glow while addressing imperfections and signs of aging.
Conditions Treated with Carbon Peeling & Laser Toning (Helios III):
Skin Glow & Uneven Skin Tone: Carbon peeling exfoliates the skin deeply, removing dead cells and debris. The laser energy targets deeper layers, stimulating collagen production and improving overall skin texture. This leads to:
- Brightened skin with a natural, healthy glow
- Even skin tone by reducing discoloration and pigmentation
Fine Wrinkles: The laser toning process helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by:
- Stimulating collagen and elastin production, improving skin elasticity
- Smoothing out fine wrinkles and promoting a youthful complexion
Pigmented Skin: Hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and sun damage are effectively treated with Helios III, which works by:
- Breaking down excess melanin in the skin
- Reducing pigmentation spots, age spots, and melasma for a more uniform skin tone
Tanning: Overexposure to the sun can cause unwanted tanning and uneven skin tone. Carbon peeling and laser toning work to:
- Reverse sun damage and tanning effects
- Restore the skin’s natural complexion and radiance
Laser Hair Bleaching: Helios III can also be used for laser hair bleaching, lightening fine hair (such as peach fuzz) to make it less visible without the need for hair removal. This is especially useful for those who prefer not to remove facial hair but want a smoother appearance.

What to Do Before Carbon Peeling & Laser Toning:
- Consultation with a Dermatologist: A thorough consultation with a dermatologist or skin specialist is essential. They will evaluate your skin type and concerns, determining whether carbon peeling and laser toning with Helios III is the right treatment for you.
- Pre-Treatment Skin Care:
- Avoid sun exposure for at least a week prior to the treatment.
- Discontinue any retinoids, acids, or harsh exfoliants 3-5 days before the procedure to avoid skin irritation.
- Keep your skin hydrated by using a gentle moisturizer.
- Skin Sensitivity Test: If you have sensitive skin, a patch test may be performed to ensure the treatment does not cause adverse reactions.
Post-Treatment Care for Carbon Peeling & Laser Toning:
- Sun Protection: After treatment, your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) daily and avoid direct sun exposure.
- Hydration: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to soothe the skin and maintain moisture levels after the procedure.
- Avoid Harsh Products: For a few days post-treatment, avoid harsh skincare products, including retinoids, exfoliants, and strong acids, to prevent irritation.
- Follow-Up Sessions: Depending on your skin concerns, multiple sessions may be needed to achieve the desired results. Regular follow-ups with your dermatologist will help in achieving the best outcome.
