The Carbon Laser Peel is also known as ‘Carbon Laser Skin Rejuvenation’ or ‘China Doll Peel’, and gives you glowing skin after just one treatment. This treatment is very popular in Asia, and has been made famous by Asian Celebrities. 

A relatively new laser resurfacing procedure, carbon laser peel makes use of laser beams to treat various skin imperfections. 

The treatment will commence with a laser skin rejuvenation, followed by covering the face with a thin carbon solution of micro to nano size which; enables deep absorption into the pore. The laser works due to its dark shade. Carbon particles will then be vaporised by the laser, removing blackheads, whiteheads and surfacing dead skin cells; revealing fresher and cleaner skin.

Not only are the benefits of the carbon peel seen straight away but continuously over the course of treatments. Due to the thermal energy absorbed into the skin, collagen synthesis begins immediately after your first treatment. 

The mechanism of refining the pores is due to the production of collagen within the dermis where the pore is situated. As we age our skin’s collagen production reduces, the walls of the pore lose their support and the surface opening begin to enlarge. 

The carbon peel combined with the Q-switched laser is like no other technology with amazing benefits and zero downtime. The popularity of this treatment began in Asian where patients loved the skin resurfacing and blackhead removal who then soon noticed after a minimisation in the pore throughout the T zone, improvement in acne and skin blemishes hence why this treatment was called “The China Doll Peel” as the skin resembled a porcelain doll.

The truth about enlarged pores and how to treat them

article-2028587-0D85817700000578-670_468x455

Large pores are a common cosmetic concern amongst all clients. There are many misleading skin care companies marketing how to diminish pores completely when in fact there is no possible way of getting rid of our pores.

Pores, also known as hair follicles, serve a fundamental purpose to our skin such as producing healthy oil to keep our skin hydrated and protected from environmental pollutants. Pores are also responsible for releasing sweat on our skin to maintain body temperature.

The truth in attempting to minimise or reduce the overall appearance of your pores can be achieved with some successful skin treatments and products.

 

As many of us are aware we have skin types: normal, dry, oily and sensitive.  Any skin type can have large pores, but most commonly the oily skin type, due to the higher secretion of oil produced.

Typical active ingredients used for reducing pore size include a class of Beta-Hydroxy Acids and Alpha Hydroxy acids. These types of acids come from fruit derivatives, which assist in exfoliating the inside of the pore as well as the external of the skin, removing dead skin cells that build up with oil creating plugs or “blackheads”.

Retinol or Tretinoin (Vitamin A) is another fundamental active ingredient which is great for the overall health and appearance of the skin. Vitamin A plays a key role in reducing the build-up of plugs within the pore itself therefore reducing blackheads.

 

Many of our clients feel their pores look more obvious as they get older, and this is in fact true.  As we age, our skin reduces in collagen and elastin, our main support structure which keeps our skin looking youthful and plump. Pores appear larger due to the loss of collagen around the walls of the pores which look wider on the surface.

Treatments that reduce pore size successfully have been far and few between up until now. Back in the day, most laser treatments that improved pores were very painful, expensive and required down time.

At Skinnovation Laser Clinic we use the Medite C6 Nd Yag Q Switched laser. This type of laser penetrates the skin in nanoseconds delivering a high discharge of energy, low level of heat with minimal discomfort. The energy absorbed into the skin gently vibrates collagen fibres creating new collagen to grow, plumping the skin and refining the pore size. Every Medlite treatment gradually works on many cosmetic concerns of the skin including fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone and pigmentation.
