Carbon Facials

Reveal brighter, cleaner, more radiant skin with a professional carbon laser peel at Lumé.

What Is a Carbon Facial?

A carbon facial — also known as a carbon laser peel — is a cutting-edge, non-invasive skin treatment that harnesses the power of laser technology to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and rejuvenate your skin from within.

The process begins by applying a thin layer of liquid carbon across the face. This carbon penetrates deep into the pores, where it bonds to dead skin cells, contaminants, excess oil, and other impurities lurking beneath the surface.

A specialist laser is then passed over the skin, gently heating the carbon layer. This heat causes the carbon to absorb and draw out the trapped debris. A second laser pass then vaporises the carbon along with everything it has collected — removing it cleanly and efficiently, leaving your pores thoroughly cleansed and your skin beautifully refreshed.

The result is deeply cleansed, exfoliated, and visibly rejuvenated skin with no incisions, no injections, and no recovery time required. It is one of the most effective non-invasive treatments available for a wide range of skin concerns.

Benefits of a Carbon Facial

Discover what a carbon laser peel can do for your skin

🧴

Deep Pore Cleansing

Liquid carbon penetrates deep into pores, binding to dirt, oil, and debris — the laser then vaporises it all for a truly thorough cleanse that goes far beyond any standard facial.

Gentle Exfoliation

The carbon vaporisation process removes dead skin cells and surface impurities without abrasion, revealing fresher, smoother skin underneath with zero harsh scrubbing or irritation.

🌟

Skin Rejuvenation

The gentle laser energy stimulates collagen production, encouraging the skin to renew itself naturally for a plumper, firmer, and more youthful-looking complexion over time.

🔬

Reduced Pore Appearance

By removing the buildup inside enlarged pores and tightening the surrounding skin, the treatment visibly reduces pore size for a smoother, more refined skin texture.

🎯

Improved Skin Tone & Texture

Regular carbon facials help even out skin tone, reduce pigmentation, and improve overall skin texture — leaving you with a noticeably brighter, more radiant complexion.

💫

Non-Invasive & No Downtime

Unlike more invasive procedures, the carbon facial requires no recovery time. You can go about your day immediately after treatment, making it a perfect lunchtime treatment option.

How the Carbon Facial Works

A simple four-step process delivering exceptional results

1

Carbon Application

Liquid carbon is carefully applied across the entire face, penetrating deep into the pores where it bonds with impurities, excess oil, and dead skin cells lurking beneath the surface.

2

Laser Heating

The specialist laser gently heats the carbon layer, causing it to fully absorb the impurities, excess oil, and dead skin cells it has penetrated — drawing them to the surface ready for removal.

3

Carbon Vaporisation

A second laser pass vaporises the carbon and all the debris it has collected, removing everything cleanly and leaving your skin deeply cleansed, clear, and refreshed at a cellular level.

4

Immediate Results

Skin appears noticeably brighter, smoother, and more even-toned immediately after treatment, with results continuing to develop and improve over the following days as collagen is stimulated.
