Benefits of the procedure
Carbon facial peeling differs from other equally effective procedures in several advantages:
- passes painlessly;
- gives effect after the first session;
- practically does not cause side effects that interfere with leading a normal lifestyle;
- does not require rehabilitation;
- has multiple beneficial effects on the skin (from bactericidal to anti-aging).
What problems arise with the skin during pregnancy?
The body of a pregnant woman is more vulnerable, and therefore most factors that previously seemed harmless to it become dangerous. Dramatic changes in hormonal levels affect both the psychological state and appearance of a woman. For example, in the first trimester the following may appear on the skin:
- small pimples;
- redness;
- pigmentation.

In addition, an aesthetic “disaster” often includes:
- dryness and flaking or, conversely, oily sheen;
- acute skin reaction to ultraviolet rays;
- microcracks in the corners of the mouth, which cause pain;
- exacerbation of dermatological ailments;
- herpes;
- allergic rashes (even when using usual cosmetics);
- acne;
- age spots, etc.
It is for these reasons that many women think about professional peeling, study and weigh the pros and cons.

The importance of safe manicure
After the procedure, I went for a safe manicure session. It is the safety and quality of manicure that are the key aspects when choosing a nail salon. However, we often forget about this and give “our hands” to untested specialists.
I still insist not to neglect compliance with sanitary standards, visit only trusted places and remain calm about your health. One of these salons is ElixirClub Yuriy Tsarov. I know first-hand about the cleanliness and safety of their manicure sessions, because I’ve tried everything from personal experience.
The friendly master met me and told me what awaited me in the next few hours. Of course, our conversation began with a conversation about the sterility of instruments. At ElixirClub Yuriy Tsarov, all manicure devices are processed in a dry-heat oven.
This is a special device for sterilizing instruments, in which, due to the circulation of hot air in a sealed package, all types of microorganisms are destroyed. The instrument is stored in the same packaging until it is opened in front of you. Next, the devices are additionally treated with an antiseptic and only then the master begins the manicure. Inspires confidence, doesn't it?
Next, several hours of girlish joy awaited me, choosing a shade of gel polish and even a tea ceremony. Among the variety of varnish palettes, I chose classic black with a matte and glossy finish.
Will I return to ElixirClub Yuriy Tsarov for another manicure? - Undoubtedly! After all, you’ll want to return to such a cozy salon with attentive staff who cater to all the client’s wishes many times over!
Carbon peeling technique
Carbon peeling before and after does not require any special measures. But still, before performing it, you need to consult a dermatologist and check if there is an allergy to the nanogel used during the procedure. It is applied to the patient’s hand, monitoring the reaction.
The impact itself is carried out in stages:
- Removes makeup and impurities from the face. Then you need to apply an antiseptic gel. The impact should not be allowed to involve microorganisms.
- After removing the antiseptic, a carbon composition is applied and the laser device is adjusted. The parameters must be clearly adjusted so that the epidermis does not burn, but warms up. The more pronounced the age-related changes, the higher the temperature and the deeper the penetration of radiation.
Stages of laser carbon peeling
- The patient puts on safety glasses. Next, the actual carbon laser peeling is carried out. The specialist moves the device’s handpiece along the surface of the skin without touching it. The process lasts 20 - 30 minutes.
- Upon completion of treatment of the entire surface, the nanogel is removed using a cleanser. A soothing cream appropriate for the type is applied to the skin.

Effect and results
This procedure is perfect for those who prefer effective but gentle peeling:
- With its help, cells are delicately exfoliated.
- The procedure has a bactericidal effect.
- occurring on the surface of the skin and in its inner layers are normalized
- Even the largest pores are noticeably narrowed. Black dots disappear.
- Elastin and collagen are produced , which means the skin becomes turgor and youthful.
- The pale, sallow complexion is eliminated .
- As a nice bonus , light, thin hairs disappear on the skin of the face.
Effect of the procedure
Carbon peeling nanogel consists of tiny carbon particles that penetrate deep into the skin, draw out contents from pores, and also bind dead cells from the surface. Laser radiation destroys pathogenic microflora, stimulates the development of young and healthy cells of the collagen layer, and whitens. Due to the double impact, the effect arises:
- the skin is deeply cleansed;
- inflammation and opportunities for its development are eliminated;
- the surface of the epidermis is leveled;
- defects, enlarged pores, and oily shine disappear;
- pigment spots disappear;
- skin color improves;
- small wrinkles are smoothed out;
- elasticity increases, the skin becomes moisturized;
- Increased greasiness is eliminated.
Laser carbon facial peeling produces beneficial changes from the first session. In total, you need 5 - 7 of them, with weekly breaks between procedures. They are needed so that development processes in the skin can proceed independently.
You shouldn’t expect the procedure to have the same effect as plastic surgery. But it can be done for teenagers with oily skin, and for middle-aged women who are immediately concerned about aging and increased oiliness.
Before and after a course of carbon peeling procedures
Reviews from cosmetologists
Irina: “Carbon peeling is a procedure that I recommend for all women because of its versatility. It is perfect for those who have young, oily skin, those who are just beginning to develop wrinkles, and those who have had them for a long time.
Often, with its help, several problems that the patient suffers from are solved at once. The most important thing is to contact a competent specialist so that the procedure is carried out correctly.
Elena Sergeevna: “I highly recommend this type of peeling to those who have problem skin. All troubles in the form of increased greasiness, pimples, inflammation and acne scars disappear after just a couple of treatments.
It is also perfect for those with older skin who also suffer from enlarged pores on their face. Having seen the result after the first time, please do not give up on care, but complete the entire course to get a stable effect. It is enough to carry out only 1-2 courses per year for the skin to look healthy.”
Ekaterina: “Carbon care is truly a very gentle procedure and is suitable for almost everyone. I highly recommend it to women living in big cities: due to the environment and stress, their skin becomes sluggish, pale, without a natural blush.
The fact is that dead epidermal cells literally cover our face, on the one hand, clogging the pores, and on the other hand, preventing nutrients from penetrating inside.
The peeling procedure, exfoliating dead cells, gives impetus to skin regeneration and the production of collagen, which provides elasticity. After this, you will notice the effect of using your cream: it will be absorbed faster, reaching the deep layers of the epidermis.
Add to this effect the smoothing of fine wrinkles, the regulation of sebaceous glands and the elimination of post-acne, and you will understand why this type of peeling is now extremely popular.”
Contraindications
The procedure is non-invasive, that is, the tissue is not mechanically damaged. Nanogel is also not capable of causing harm. However, carbon peeling has contraindications, like any external influence. Some diseases and conditions create
danger to the health of the skin and the body as a whole during its implementation:
- inflammation and any damage to the epidermis;
- keloid scars;
- oncology;
- vitiligo;
- exacerbation of chronic diseases;
- pregnancy and lactation.
Side effects of carbon peeling on the face
The carbon peeling procedure usually does not cause a negative reaction. The maximum that worries you is redness of the skin for a short time. But still for some it may end:
- persistent redness;
- intense peeling;
- increasing the sensitivity of the manipulated area;
- swelling of tissues;
- the appearance of age spots.
These signs may occur as an individual reaction. Problems are sometimes caused by a low-quality carbon peeling device, a cosmetologist’s inability to work with it, or an incorrect choice of laser radiation parameters.
Skin care after
Tissues are not injured during the procedure. But this does not replace some precautions and special care after the procedure for several days. Changes occur in the skin so that it is vulnerable to bacteria, ultraviolet rays and any other influence. In addition, there is no protective film on it. And in order not to interfere with recovery, not to spoil the visible effect that laser peeling with carbon nanogel gives, it is necessary:
- For the first 24 hours, use only micellar water for cleansing;
- intensively moisturize the skin with hypoallergenic products;
- Do not sunbathe or go to the solarium for 2-3 weeks;
- for the same period, refuse to visit the pool;
- During the entire rehabilitation period, protect yourself from wind and cold;
- do not perform procedures that irritate the skin (cleansing with scrubs, other peelings, applying aggressive products);
- Do not use decorative cosmetics (foundation, powder, etc.) for at least a week.
If these simple conditions are met, carbon peeling will have only favorable consequences. Otherwise, infection may occur, a new round of acne or pyoderma may occur, and increased skin dryness or hyperpigmentation may develop.
Is it possible to do peelings when planning pregnancy?
When planning a pregnancy, you should avoid any cleansing procedures that include the use of aggressive chemical components.
This is especially true for retinoic cleansing, during which the active components enter the patient’s body and remain there for some time. They affect cells at the protein level - this leads to changes in tissue construction, and, as a result, can lead to negative changes.
It is important to remember that ignoring contraindications and expert advice can negatively affect the child’s health, and even cause premature birth. When deciding on exfoliation during pregnancy, it is important to choose a highly qualified specialist, check the expiration date of the chosen product and the sterility of the instruments used.
