Laser & Beauty Clinic Fiji - PICO Laser Carbon Peel

PICO Carbon Laser Peel

Recommended course: 8–10 treatments, approximately 4 weeks apart, depending on your skin concerns and individual response.

Brighter, Clearer & More Refined Skin

The PICO Carbon Laser Peel is a gentle, non-invasive facial treatment designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin while helping improve overall tone, texture and radiance.

A specialised carbon solution is applied to the skin before the PICO laser is passed over the treatment area. The carbon helps attract excess oil, dead skin cells and impurities from the pores. As the laser targets the carbon particles, they are broken down and removed, leaving the skin feeling cleaner, smoother and refreshed.

The laser energy also helps stimulate collagen production, supporting firmer, smoother and more youthful-looking skin over time.

Therapist Highly Recommended for Asian Skin Types

This is one of our therapist's highly recommended treatments for Asian and naturally deeper skin tones seeking a brighter, clearer and more luminous complexion.

It is especially popular with clients wanting to reduce dullness, uneven-looking skin tone and pigmentation while achieving a fresher, brighter appearance without aggressive resurfacing.

Treatment suitability and laser settings are always individually assessed according to your skin tone, pigmentation and skin condition.

Why We Love the Carbon Laser Peel

Unlike a traditional chemical peel, a carbon laser peel uses laser energy rather than chemical exfoliating solutions to refresh the skin.

It is a popular treatment because it is generally:

Quick and comfortable
Non-invasive
Suitable for many skin types
Designed to deeply cleanse and refine pores
Helpful for oily and acne-prone skin
Excellent for improving brightness and radiance
Associated with minimal downtime
Easily incorporated into a regular skin-maintenance programme

Most clients can return to their normal activities shortly after treatment, although temporary warmth, redness or sensitivity can occur.

For best results, your therapist will complete a skin consultation and recommend a personalized treatment plan for your individual skin type and concerns.
