  2. A personalised plan and a clear price
  3. A course of three to five sessions for best results

A carbon facial, often called the Hollywood facial, is a laser treatment that deep-cleans and brightens the skin. It is popular with people whose skin is oily, congested or dull. If you live in Morriston and want clearer, fresher-looking skin, we offer carbon facials at our clinic in Llanelli.

Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic is in the centre of Llanelli. We are a doctor-led clinic registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, and we have been treating clients since 2016.

Every client starts with a free consultation. There’s no pressure and no sales pitch, just an honest view of what treatment can and can’t do for you.

What Is a Carbon Facial?

A carbon facial is a laser facial that exfoliates the surface of the skin and clears out the pores. Morriston clients like that it fits into a lunch break with no downtime.

It’s used to improve texture, reduce the look of enlarged pores, clear blackheads and even out skin tone.

All skin types can be treated, and oily or acne-prone skin benefits most. Our Llanelli clinic is doctor-led and registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, with prices from £60.

How a Carbon Facial Works

Illustration: a thin layer of carbon lotion is applied and settles into the pores. The laser light is absorbed by the carbon, which heats up and is lifted off the skin, taking oil, dead skin cells and debris with it, while the gentle heat stimulates collagen. The result is cleaner, brighter skin with pores that look smaller and tighter. © Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic.

Treatment starts with a thin coat of liquid carbon, which works its way into the pores and grips onto oil, dirt and dead skin. A Q-switched laser then targets the carbon with high-intensity pulses of light.

This removes the carbon along with the debris it has collected. The laser also gently warms the skin, stimulating collagen for smoother texture and tighter-looking pores. Slight tingling is common.

What Results to Expect

Most people see brighter, smoother skin after one session. For the best and longest-lasting results, we usually recommend three to five treatments.

A carbon facial works on the surface of the skin, refreshing tone and texture and softening fine lines, but it won’t remove deeper lines or scarring. Results vary, and tanned skin, including fake tan, can’t be treated.

What You Can Expect from Treatment

  • Less than an hour: for most appointments
  • Comfortable: a light warmth as the laser passes over
  • Instant freshness: skin often looks brighter right away
  • Sessions needed: three to five for longer-lasting results
  • Back to your day: no recovery time
  • Straight answers: we’ll tell you if another treatment would suit you better
