The Carbon Peel Facial, famously known as the “Hollywood Peel,” is a revolutionary, non-invasive laser treatment that deeply exfoliates and purifies the skin.
It involves applying a layer of liquid carbon to the face, which penetrates deep into the pores. A laser is then used to vaporize the carbon, taking dead skin cells, oil, and impurities with it. The result is instantly smoother, brighter skin with refined pores and a flawless finish—all with absolutely no downtime.
Why Choose Carbon Peel Facial
In a city like Mumbai, where your skin battles daily humidity and pollution and your social calendar can be demanding, you need a treatment that is both highly effective and incredibly efficient. The Carbon Peel Facial is the chosen solution for those who want immediate, visible improvement without any interruption to their busy lives.
1. For an Instant, “Red Carpet” Glow
This is its signature benefit and the reason it’s called the “Hollywood Peel.” If you have a wedding, party, or important event coming up, the Carbon Peel delivers an immediate brightening and smoothing effect. You can genuinely have the treatment in the afternoon and be photo-ready by the evening. There is absolutely no downtime.
2. To Deeply Purify and Decongest Your Skin
The Carbon Peel acts like a “power wash” for your pores. It is exceptionally effective at clearing out the stubborn oil, trapped dirt, and blackheads that accumulate due to Mumbai’s humid climate. It leaves your skin feeling incredibly clean and refreshed in a way a regular facial simply cannot match.
3. To Control Unwanted Oiliness and Acne
If you have oily or acne-prone skin, this treatment is a game-changer. It helps to regulate your skin’s sebum (oil) production, can help shrink oil glands over time, and has an anti-bacterial effect on the skin. This reduces existing acne and helps prevent future breakouts.
4. For Powerful Exfoliation Without the Harshness
Get the skin-renewing benefits of a deep exfoliation without the visible peeling or recovery time associated with many chemical peels. The laser-powered exfoliation is precise, comfortable, and gentle on the skin, making it suitable for most skin types.
5. To Visibly Refine and Minimize Pores
A key reason clients in Mumbai love the Carbon Peel is its remarkable effect on open pores. The treatment deeply cleanses the pores, and the thermal effect of the laser helps to tighten them, resulting in a smoother, more refined skin texture that looks like a real-life filter.
Benefits of Carbon Peel Facial
Deep Pore Cleansing and Decongestion
The carbon lotion acts like a magnet, binding to oil and impurities deep within your pores. The laser then vaporizes this carbon, providing a powerful 'deep clean' that effectively removes stubborn blackheads and clears out the congestion often caused by our city's environment.
Instant Brightening and Radiance
By instantly removing the dull, dead outer layer of skin, the Carbon Peel reveals a brighter, more luminous complexion from the very first session. This is the immediate "red carpet" glow that makes it the perfect treatment before any party, festival, or special occasion.
Controls Oiliness and Reduces Active Acne
This treatment is a game-changer for oily and acne-prone skin. It helps to regulate the skin's sebum production for a more balanced, matte finish. Furthermore, the thermal energy of the laser has an anti-bacterial effect that reduces active acne and helps prevent future breakouts.
Refines Pores and Smooths Skin Texture
A key benefit is the visible reduction in the size of enlarged pores. The combination of deep cleaning and the collagen-stimulating effect of the laser helps to tighten pores and smooth the overall skin texture, giving you a refined and polished "porcelain doll" look.
Effective Exfoliation with Zero Downtime
Enjoy the skin-renewing benefits of a powerful exfoliation without any of the visible peeling, redness, or recovery time associated with other peels. You can walk out of the clinic and get straight back to your day with skin that looks refreshed and revitalised.
Stimulates Collagen for Long-Term Rejuvenation
Beyond the immediate surface benefits, the gentle heat from the laser penetrates to the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate new collagen growth. Over a series of treatments, this contributes to firmer, plumper, and more youthful-looking skin.

FAQ
Is the Carbon Peel Facial painful? What does the laser feel like?
Yes, it is one of the safest and most natural regenerative treatments available in dermatology today. Because the Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is derived from your own blood (a process called “autologous” use), there is virtually no risk of allergic reactions, sensitivities, or your body rejecting it. The entire process, from the blood draw to the final application, is performed under strictly sterile, medical-grade conditions in our clinic.
Does the 'Vampire Facial' actually hurt?
Despite the scary-sounding nickname, the treatment is made very comfortable for our patients. We begin by applying a strong topical anaesthetic (numbing cream) to the face for 30-40 minutes. This ensures that while you may feel a mild vibrating or tingling sensation from the microneedling device used to apply the PRP, you will not experience significant pain.
What is the downtime after a Face PRP session?
The downtime is minimal. Immediately after the treatment, you can expect your skin to be red and feel sensitive and tight, similar to a mild sunburn. This redness typically subsides significantly within 24 hours, and most clients feel comfortable returning to work and their normal routine the very next day. We will provide detailed aftercare instructions, which include avoiding direct sun exposure and harsh skincare products for a few days.
How many PRP sessions will I need?
While a single session will impart a beautiful, healthy glow to your skin, PRP works best as a cumulative treatment for long-term regeneration. For optimal results in collagen building and to address specific concerns like acne scars or fine lines, we typically recommend a series of 3 to 4 sessions, with each session spaced about 4-6 weeks apart.
When will I see the results, and how long do they last?
You may notice an initial improvement in your skin’s glow and texture within a couple of weeks. However, the true regenerative results from new collagen production appear gradually and are most visible 2 to 3 months after your course of treatment is complete. Because you have built new, healthy tissue, these results are very long-lasting (often a year or more). We recommend a single maintenance session annually to sustain these benefits.
Should I get PRP instead of Botox or Fillers?
This is an excellent question, as they serve different purposes:
Botox & Fillers are for correction. They “fix” a specific problem—fillers add volume to a hollow area, and Botox stops a muscle from creating a wrinkle.
PRP is for regeneration. It improves the overall health, quality, thickness, and glow of your entire skin. It makes your skin healthier and act younger.
Our dermatologist will advise you on the best approach for your goals. They are not mutually exclusive and can sometimes be used in combination for a full face rejuvenation.
It's currently August. Is this a good time to start PRP treatments?
This is the perfect time to begin your PRP journey. A full course of 3-4 sessions takes a few months to complete. By starting your treatments now, your skin will be hitting its peak health and radiance just in time for the major festive and wedding season which runs from October through December. It is the ideal way to plan ahead for a truly natural and lasting glow.
