What Is Carbon Peeling?

Carbon peeling (Hollywood Peel) is a fast and effective skin rejuvenation treatment in which an activated carbon gel applied to the skin is targeted and broken down using a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. Carbon particles attach to oil, dirt, and dead skin cells within the pores, and the laser energy destroys these particles, providing deep cleansing, pore tightening, and skin renewal. Dr. Nuriyya Guliyeva effectively uses this treatment for both acne control and enhancing skin radiance.
