Flawlessly
smooth porcelain-doll skin is the ultimate beauty attribute — won’t you agree? Rumored
to deliver just that; a picture-perfect porcelain skin this laser and carbon
lotion facial has no doubt become a highly coveted treatment among celebs as
well as civilians. The list of beauty Goddesses who are reportedly die-hard fans
of this facial includes Jennifer Aniston, Angelina Jolie, Kim Kardashian and the
list goes on. According to one “Cosmetic Trends” survey it has been charted as
one of the top ten aesthetic treatments requested by the walk-in beauty
coinsurers in cosmetic clinics — ground proof, my clinic does tally these statistics.
If your curiosity has been intrigued lets get you abreast with the ins and outs
of this sought after beauty treatment.
Carbon
Laser Facial was originally conceptualized in Korea in the early 2000’s and
since then it has been immensely popular in Taiwan, Hong Kong, China and of
course the home ground Korea. The aesthetic exchange of information of late has
made it in demand across the globe.
What Is Carbon/Black Doll Facial?
“Carbon
Laser Skin Rejuvenation” — as we technically call it, is an adept non invasive
and pain-free laser treatment that is great for treating minor skin
imperfections and giving skin a glow from within. This laser facial is
delivered by a state of the art Q-switched Nd-Yag Laser machine producing
short, rapid and high intensity pulses of light with maximum capability for
destruction of debris clogged in the pores and upper layers of skin.
During
the procedure face is cleansed and a thin layer of carbon lotion (as a
photoenhancer) is applied. The laser light is absorbed by the black particles
of carbon, which blast off along with the superficial dead layer of skin as
laser light moves across the skin. Additionally the laser selectively targets
facial imperfections such as enlarged pores, pigmentation, scarring, and rough
texture. Pores impacted with oil and dead skin are cleared off and the
rejuvenating effect of 1064nm laser causes plumping up of the skin. The whole
procedure takes 10-15 minutes and best part is there is no down time you can go
back to work or your daily life without any delay.
A
short course of 4 - 6 fortnightly sessions can give noticeable brightening of
overall complexion, and most people opt to continue with regular sessions to
maintain the skin's clarity.
If
we were to make a list of skin corrections that we can achieve using this
facial it’d look like this:
- Tightens dilated pores
- Reduces acne, scars and post acne discoloration
- Removes dead skin cells from the superficial epidermal layer
- Stimulates collagen growth
- Improves skin texture
- Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
- Restores skin integrity and radiance
- Clears pores to help reduce blackheads and whiteheads
Focusing on Middle East — What does a blast of
carbon with Yag Laser translates to for Middle Eastern skin specifically?
Ethnic
or Middle Eastern skin in majority of cases exhibits increased melanocytic (pigment cells) and sebaceous (oil
glands) activity. Skin is usually thicker with open pores, predilection towards
acne, melasma (uneven pigmentation) and increased facial hair. Carbon laser
facial can fix all these minor skin aberrations delivering a smoother and
glowing complexion. Few sessions
done fortnightly and then maintenance sessions done every few months can help
achieve the fabled smooth porcelain-doll skin.
