If your skin feels congested, oily or uneven, and you are looking for visible results without downtime, Carbon Laser Facial Treatment can be an effective solution.
At Instaskin in Göteborg, this professional, non-invasive treatment is performed with a skin-focused approach, always adapted to individual skin needs.
What is Carbon Laser Facial Treatment?
Carbon Laser Facial Treatment is a laser-based facial that combines a medical-grade carbon lotion with advanced laser technology.
A thin layer of carbon gel is applied to the skin, where it penetrates into the pores and binds to oil, impurities and dead skin cells. A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser is then used to target the carbon particles.
As the laser energy hits the carbon, it gently exfoliates the skin, cleanses pores and stimulates collagen production at the same time.
Who is this treatment recommended for?
Carbon Laser Facial Treatment is especially suitable if you have:
Oily or acne-prone skin
Congested or enlarged pores
Blackheads
Uneven skin tone
Mild pigmentation
Fine lines and early signs of aging
Acne scars or rough skin texture
At Instaskin Göteborg, every treatment is adjusted based on skin condition and long-term skin goals.
How does the treatment work?
The treatment works through a combination of deep cleansing and controlled laser energy.
The carbon absorbs excess oil and impurities from the pores. When the laser is applied, the carbon particles are removed together with the debris they have captured.
At the same time, the laser stimulates collagen production and improves skin circulation, resulting in smoother, clearer-looking skin.
What happens during the treatment?
The skin is cleansed and prepared before the carbon lotion is applied evenly to the face.
After a short settling time, the laser treatment begins. You may feel warmth or a light snapping sensation, which is generally very well tolerated.
The treatment takes approximately 30–45 minutes. Afterward, calming and protective skincare is applied, including sun protection.
What does the skin look and feel like afterwards?
Immediately after the treatment, the skin often looks:
Brighter
Smoother
Cleaner
More refined
There is little to no downtime. Mild redness may occur but usually settles quickly. Most clients can return to daily activities the same day.
How many treatments are recommended?
Depending on skin condition, Carbon Laser Facial Treatment can be repeated every 2–4 weeks.
In most cases:
A course of 4–6 treatments provides optimal results
Maintenance treatments can be done as needed
Your treatment plan is always tailored to your skin.
Aftercare – what to keep in mind
After the treatment:
Daily sun protection is essential
Avoid strong exfoliating products for a few days
Keep the skin well hydrated
Avoid excessive heat such as sauna or intense sun exposure for a short period
Proper aftercare helps maintain results and supports skin recovery.
