What is a Carbon Laser Treatment and how does it work?

Carbon Laser Treatment is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that uses medical-grade carbon and laser light to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and refresh the skin. The carbon absorbs oil, impurities, and dead skin cells, and when the laser passes over, it vaporises the carbon, removing built-up debris and stimulating collagen production at the same time.

What skin concerns does it help with?

This treatment is ideal for oily or congested skin, enlarged pores, acne, blackheads, dullness, and uneven skin tone. It can also help soften fine lines and improve overall skin texture and brightness.

What does it feel like and is there downtime?

The treatment feels like a warm, light prickling sensation—comfortable and quick. There’s no downtime, and you can return to normal activities immediately. Your skin might look slightly flushed after, but this settles within hours.

How often should I have it done?

For best results, we recommend a course of 4 to 6 treatments, spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart, depending on your skin type and goals. Some clients love it as a monthly maintenance facial for clear, glowing skin.

Who performs the treatment and is it safe?

All Carbon Laser Treatments are performed by our trained therapists or registered nurses, using professional-grade technology and safe protocols. Your skin will be assessed beforehand to ensure the treatment is right for you.

Relaxing Experience

I love going to Aqua Laser Clinic in Hurstville. The staff are so nice and their facials are very relaxing! Their therapists have the softest touch on your face and it’s really well worth it. I’m also doing PRP for hair growth with nurse Karen who’s so good and well-experienced. She manages to extract blood quick and easy even though my veins can be kinda tricky 😊 Definitely highly recommended!
