Carbon-Peel Laser
Book NowCarbon Peel Laser, also known as the "Hollywood Peel," is a gentle yet powerful laser treatment that deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and rejuvenates the skin using a specialized carbon lotion and Q-switched laser energy. This non-invasive procedure targets oil, dead skin, and impurities while stimulating collagen production—leaving your skin smoother, brighter, and refreshed with no downtime. Perfect before events or as part of your regular skincare routine, Carbon Peel Laser is a favorite at Platinum Medical Spa.
For at least 5 days prior to treatment, avoid using retinoids such as Retin-A, Vitamin C, glycolic acids, and any strong or irritating skincare products that may interfere with your treatment.
Avoid all skin treatments for at least 2 weeks prior, including microdermabrasion, professional or at-home exfoliation, Botox, fillers, or any other aesthetic procedures. It is recommended to perform all treatments at Platinum Medical Spa to ensure proper timing and safety.
If you are taking antibiotics, ensure your last dose is taken at least 7 days prior to your laser treatment.
Consistent sun protection is essential. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen and wear protective measures such as hats to avoid UVA and UVB exposure before your treatment.
Smoking should be avoided, as nicotine constricts blood vessels and may impair healing and reduce treatment effectiveness.
Arrive with clean skin and follow all pre-care instructions provided by Platinum Medical Spa. Proper preparation supports optimal treatment results and minimizes the risk of irritation or complications.

The carbon mask absorbs oil and impurities, and the laser vaporizes them away.
Gently exfoliates dead skin cells and softens fine lines.
Return to your day with clean, radiant skin—no redness or recovery needed.
The treatment begins with a light layer of carbon-based lotion applied to your face, acting like a magnet for dirt, oil, and dead skin. Once dry, a Q-switched laser is passed over the skin, gently heating and vaporizing the carbon particles—along with surface debris and sebum. This also stimulates collagen and elastin for long-term skin renewal. The process is painless and takes about 30-45 minutes. It's safe for most skin types and requires no anesthesia or recovery. Many clients choose to book the Carbon Peel regularly for ongoing skin maintenance.
After treatment, the skin may feel warm and appear slightly red. If pigmentation was targeted, darker spots may temporarily appear more pronounced. A mild sunburn-like sensation, redness, swelling, or sensitivity may occur and typically resolves within a short period.
Avoid all active skincare ingredients, including alpha hydroxy acids, retinol, and glycolic acid, for at least 2 weeks post-treatment, as these may irritate the skin.
Avoid all forms of exfoliation for at least 2 weeks. Treat the skin gently as it heals. Use mild cleansers such as a milk cleanser or gentle moisturizing face wash. Products containing peptides, emollients, and SPF are recommended.
Avoid heavy exercise and excessive sweating, as this may irritate the treated skin and delay healing. Allow your body adequate rest to support recovery.
Avoid products with strong fragrances or harsh chemicals. Protect the skin with daily sunscreen and maintain a gentle skincare routine to support healing and reduce side effects.
Healing varies by individual. Following all post-care instructions will help minimize side effects such as redness, swelling, and sensitivity while optimizing treatment results.
