About the treatment
What is Carbon Laser Facial?
A thin layer of medical-grade carbon is applied and left to settle into pores. A laser then vaporises the carbon, lifting oil, dead cells and debris with it.
Sometimes called a 'lunchtime' facial, it suits oily skin and anyone wanting a fresh look with no downtime.
