Don’t let the name fool you. The Hollywood Facial isn’t really a facial at all but is instead a type of sophisticated laser treatment. It’s all the rage in, you guessed it, Hollywood! Celebrities favor the treatment because of its dramatic results and quick recovery time.
What Is the Treatment?
The treatment itself involves a couple of different steps. First, a black carbon mask is applied to the face. Once the mask is in place, an expert skincare professional applies a Pico laser treatment.
A Pico laser is a non-invasive treatment that targets certain types of imperfections. It sends heatless pulses of energy into the targeted area of the skin, breaking down the skin pigment it touches. The sensation isn’t uncomfortable, but it is highly effective at removing sun damage spots, scarring, lesions, and even certain types of tattoos.
What Types of Conditions Does It Treat?
The Hollywood Facial and Pico laser treatments are highly effective at getting rid of many unwanted skin conditions, both new and old. Since the Pico laser targets and destroys pigmented areas, it’s useful for getting rid of nearly any type of spot on the face, from dark patches to old scars. Schedule this treatment to handle the following issues and more.
- Sun damage
- Acne scars
- Uneven skin tone
- Melasma
- Unwanted birthmarks
Additionally, this treatment leaves you with rejuvenated, glowing skin, regardless of your skin type!
How to Prepare
Fortunately, scheduling a Hollywood facial and Pico laser treatment doesn’t require much from you. There’s no downtime and most patients experience no side effects at all. The most common ones are minimal and include redness. In general, it’s a gentle treatment and you can get back to the rest of your day after your appointment.
Sessions tend to be fairly quick, too. Pico laser treatments only take a few minutes (a half hour at most) and by the end, you’ll have fresh, lovely skin! For highly pigmented or troublesome spots, you may need a few different sessions. The benefits from the Hollywood Facial begin immediately, though.
Final Thoughts
Everyone deserves to love their skin. Over time, damage accumulates. If you have acne-prone skin or spend a lot of time in the sun, that’s even more true. Fortunately, there are plenty of options out there to help. The Hollywood Facial is popular for a reason – it works!

Do you struggle with acne, oily skin, or clogged or enlarged pores? Does sun-damaged skin plague you? There is a treatment that could be beneficial for you. This article will discuss the Hollywood carbon facial and why it could benefit you.
What Is the Hollywood Carbon Facial?
The Hollywood carbon facial is a carbon laser peel that combines the benefits of charcoal and laser technology. The main goal of a Hollywood carbon facial is skin rejuvenation. It was created to reduce the signs of aging skin or damaged skin.
The laser breaks up cells in targeted pigmented skin areas to prepare the body to eliminate those particles. Carbon attracts the laser light, and the paste absorbs heat and energy, destroying the particles within the pores.
Next, the energy from the laser heats deeper layers of skin, causing cells to contract, which creates a lift, smoothing lines and wrinkles. The laser energy also helps to stimulate collagen production, which improves the skin’s elasticity and strength. The carbon paste absorbs dirt from the skin’s pores while exfoliating.
Benefits of a Hollywood Carbon Facial
The Hollywood carbon facial deeply exfoliates your skin. They are also used to stimulate collagen production. These carbon laser peels are used in the treatment of:
- Acne, acne pigmentation, and acne scarring
- Enlarged and clogged pores
- Photoaging
- Melasma
- Fine lines and wrinkles.
Chemical peels can also be used to treat these conditions, but there are differences between chemical peels and a Hollywood carbon facial. Here are the main differences between them:
- Carbon laser peels use heat rather than chemicals to get results.
- Carbon laser peels require that you take no downtime for recovery.
- Individuals with sensitive skin or conditions such as eczema will typically have less redness or irritation after a Hollywood carbon facial than a chemical peel.
Effectiveness of the Hollywood Carbon Facial
Carbon laser peels tend to be effective for improving how oily skin or skin with large pores looks. People with severe acne or scarring from acne may require multiple treatments before they see complete results. Fine lines and wrinkles should diminish visibly after one or more treatments.
Hollywood carbon facials don’t provide permanent results. If you want the benefits of the treatments to be lasting, you may require ongoing treatments. Carbon laser peels can be done every two to three weeks, allowing collagen to regenerate between treatments amply.
