The Hollywood Carbon Laser Facial PRO by Dr Brad

 

Introducing The Hollywood Carbon Laser Facial PRO.

The Hollywood Carbon Laser Facial PRO is a doctor-designed, multi-phase laser protocol.

Unlike basic carbon peels offered in beauty clinics, which often rely solely on a weak, single laser pass, this treatment incorporates controlled thermal conditioning before carbon removal, allowing laser energy to work more effectively while maintaining safety across skin types.

It is delivered using a medical-grade, high-peak-power active Q-switched Nd:YAG laser, with fully customisable clinical energy settings — designed to target pore congestion and surface oil, not simply provide superficial exfoliation.

It is particularly effective for:

  • Blackheads and congested pores

  • Oily or combination skin

  • Skin exposed to dirt, dust, pollution or heavy environments

  • Dull, uneven skin texture

  • Patients wanting visible improvement with no downtime

Why choose a doctor-led carbon laser facial?

Many clinics offer “carbon peels”. Very few deliver them medically.

At Dr Brad’s Clinic:

  • Treatments are personally performed by a GMC-registered doctor

  • Laser settings are adjusted to your skin type, sensitivity and goals

  • We use medical energy ranges, not fixed pre-sets

  • Treatments are designed for skin health and safety, not social media spectacle

This matters!

Carbon laser treatments rely on precise energy delivery.

Too little energy delivers minimal benefit; too much increases the risk of irritation, pigment disturbance or unnecessary discomfort.

Your treatment is carefully balanced for clinical effect without undue risk.


How does it work?

  1. Phase 1 – Carbon application
    Carbon lodges in pores and on the stratum corneum.

    Phase 2 – Thermal conditioning pass 
    This should come before QS removal because:

    • The carbon is still present and acts as a photoenhancer

    • You get controlled superficial → upper-dermal heating

    • Sebaceous and perifollicular signalling occurs without explosive disruption

    • This is where the real biology happens

    Phase 3 – Q-switched carbon removal

    • Photoacoustic disruption

    • Mechanical clearing of pores

    • Pore shrinkage and inhibition of oily sebum production is initiated
    • Visible, audible endpoint

    • Limited to 1–2 passes only

The result is skin that feels cleaner, smoother and less oily, with improved clarity and texture.

Is there scientific evidence behind carbon laser facials?

Yes.

Peer-reviewed clinical studies have demonstrated that Q-switched Nd:YAG laser treatments, particularly when combined with topical carbon, can lead to:

  • Reduction in pore size

  • Decreased sebum (oil) production

  • Improved skin texture

  • High patient satisfaction

  • Minimal downtime when appropriately delivered

These findings are consistent across multiple dermatology studies evaluating carbon-assisted Nd:YAG laser protocols when delivered within appropriate clinical parameters.

Carbon acts as a photo-enhancer, improving the laser’s interaction with congested pores while allowing treatment to remain non-ablative and safe when performed correctly.

This is not a beauty facial — it is a laser-based medical skin treatment.


What results should I expect?

After a single session, most patients notice:

  • Cleaner-feeling skin

  • Reduced surface oil

  • Brighter appearance

  • Smoother texture

With a short course:

  • Blackheads become less prominent

  • Pores appear more refined

  • Oil production is better controlled

Results are gradual and cumulative, not aggressive or destructive.


How many sessions are recommended?

  • Initial course: 2–4 sessions

  • Frequency: Every 3–4 weeks

  • Maintenance: Every 2–3 months as needed

Some patients choose this as an occasional “reset” treatment; others use it as part of an ongoing skin-care strategy.


Does it hurt? Is there downtime?

  • Sensation: Sharp warmth or snapping sensation during laser passes

  • Anaesthetic: Not required

  • Downtime: None

  • Redness: Mild and temporary in some patients, usually resolving within hours

You can return to normal activities immediately.


Is this suitable for all skin types?

This treatment can be performed on a wide range of skin types.
Energy settings are customised carefully, particularly in darker skin tones, to minimise risk.

A consultation is always performed prior to treatment.


How does this compare to other laser facials?

The Hollywood Carbon Laser Facial PRO is ideal for pore congestion and oil control.

For patients seeking:

  • Pigment correction

  • More global skin rejuvenation

  • Multi-layer laser treatment

We may recommend progressing to QUEST³, our advanced triple-layer laser facial, which treats pigment, texture and deeper skin quality in a more comprehensive way.

This staged approach allows treatment to remain safe, logical and effective.


Why choose Dr Brad’s Clinic?

  • Doctor-led care from consultation to treatment

  • Medical-grade lasers, not aesthetic devices

  • Honest, realistic advice — no overpromising

  • Treatments tailored to your skin, not a fixed menu

  • Established laser clinic with a full spectrum of advanced options

Patients often choose us after disappointing experiences elsewhere — not because we are the cheapest, but because we are careful, experienced and clinically grounded.
