What is carbon peeling
This is a procedure for cleansing the skin from dead cells and blackheads. A special gel based on carbon (carbon dioxide) is applied to the face, then the skin is heated by a laser.

Ruled out! The essence of carbon peeling is heating the skin with a laser. Such equipment, firstly, is very expensive. Secondly, it must be certified. Thirdly, it requires compulsory medical education – or at least work skills. Any manipulations with the skin should be under the guidance of a competent specialist (ideally a dermatologist).
Where is carbon peeling done?
In a beauty salon, in a clinic with the direction “Aesthetic cosmetology”. The number of procedures, the frequency of visits is determined by the beautician. At the first appointment, the condition of your skin, its reaction to irritants is discussed. The doctor may ask about hereditary diseases. Still, laser exposure is no joke; heating even the upper layers of the dermis can provoke a reaction – if there are contraindications.
How much does it cost?

Expert Reviews
Natalya Yavorskaya, cosmetologist:
— I really like carbon peeling. Because it can be done by almost everyone, there are no pronounced contraindications (except for pregnancy / lactation, acute infectious diseases, oncology). After the procedure, we will see the effect on both aged and young skin. Even skin without rashes will look better – as peeling cleans pores, reduces sebum production, makes the face smoother and shinier.
Carbon peeling can be chosen in different cases:
I love carbon peeling because it has a long-lasting effect. Alas, the saying “a shoemaker without boots” applies to myself, I don’t have time to complete the course myself. But if you manage to do it at least twice a year, it’s already good, I see the effect on the skin. Manual cleaning cannot be compared: after it, everything returns to its place after 3 days. And carbon peeling reduces the secretion of sebum, the pores remain clean for a long time. I think carbon peeling is a cool thing in every way.

Why do you need carbon peeling? How is it different from a chemical peel?
Carbon peeling cannot penetrate more or less deeply. It only works with the paste itself. By burning the carbon gel, the laser removes the most superficial scales of the epidermis. So we get a uniform cleansing of the face. Therefore, carbon peeling can be done all summer or all year round.
