Carbon facials involve spraying fine particles of liquid carbon onto your skin with a specialised tool. The particles penetrate deep into the epidermis where they oxidise, carrying with them potent antioxidants and other ingredients such as collagen and hyaluronic acid. At Jina Robinson Skin Cos-Medix in Albion Park, we use an advanced Q-Switch Laser system to apply carbon facials.
Carbon facials are also known as Hollywood facials. That’s because they are the facials preferred by todays starlets. Our friendly staff will explain all the steps involved with the facial process in detail, as well as advise what you can do from home to get the best results.

The following are just a few reasons why you may want to consider a carbon facial:
Carbon facials are typically used to address a variety of skin concerns including:
The treatments help reduce the appearance of these issues while also improving overall skin texture and tone. Carbon facials can also be beneficial in boosting collagen production and improving circulation, resulting in firmer and glowing skin.
In addition to the cosmetic benefits of carbon facials, they can also be helpful in reducing redness associated with acne breakouts. Carbon laser facial treatments are becoming increasingly popular due to their fast results and minimal downtime for recovery. They are also considered safe for all skin types and colours.
Carbon facials differ from traditional facials in a number of ways. Firstly, they involve the use of activated charcoal which has powerful purifying and detoxifying properties, making it an effective way to remove dirt, bacteria, impurities and blackheads. Traditional facials usually involve cleansing, exfoliating and moisturising, but with carbon facials you get an extra deep cleanse as the charcoal draws out toxins and helps to unclog pores for a brighter complexion. They also typically involve less extractions than regular facial treatments which can be beneficial for those prone to sensitivity or redness. Carbon facials are suitable for all skin types and can help improve the appearance of acne scars, hyperpigmentation and other common skin concerns.
To get the best results after a carbon facial, it is important to follow up with a regular skincare regimen. This includes washing your face twice daily and moisturising it afterwards. Be sure to avoid excessive sun exposure, as this can undo the effects of your carbon facial. Additionally, consider using a gentle exfoliator several times per week to boost skin cell turnover and keep skin looking fresh and smooth. Lastly, get plenty of restful sleep each night so your body can repair itself and replenish vital nutrients for overall healthy skin.
No, it is important to wait at least 24 hours after a carbon facial before applying any makeup. This will allow your skin time to fully absorb all the benefits from the treatment and give it time to heal properly. Applying makeup too soon can clog your pores or cause irritation. If you do wear makeup afterwards, make sure you are using products specifically formulated for sensitive skin. Avoid heavy foundations and opt for lighter coverage with oil-free moisturising ingredients like hyaluronic acid or dimethicone instead. Additionally, always be sure to remove your makeup each night with a gentle cleanser to prevent build-up on your skin.
