Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Black Doll Carbon Facial (The Hollywood Peel).

Treats enlarged pores, oily and acne-prone skin, uneven texture, dullness, and superficial scarring. The carbon mask plus laser deeply cleanses, reduces bacteria, refines pores, and boosts collagen for immediate radiance.

A typical session lasts 30 to 45 minutes, depending on skin condition and any added steps. It's quick, comfortable, and requires no recovery time, making it perfect when you need a fast skin boost before an event.

There is virtually zero downtime. Some clients may experience mild, short-lived redness that fades within hours. You can immediately resume makeup and daily activities, though we recommend sunscreen and gentle skincare to protect newly resurfaced skin.

Many clients see noticeable improvement after one session, especially for brightness and texture. For acne control and long-term pore reduction, a series of 3–6 treatments spaced four weeks apart is recommended for lasting results.

Suitable for most skin types, including mildly sensitive skin, because the peel is non-ablative. We perform a consultation and patch test to tailor laser settings. Avoid if you have active rosacea flare-ups, open wounds, or recent isotretinoin use until cleared.

Before treatment avoid tanning, harsh exfoliants, and retinoids for at least one week. After treatment use gentle cleansers, broad-spectrum sunscreen, and hydrating products. Skip aggressive treatments for two weeks and follow technician advice for best results.
