Carbon peel is a laser facial in which a thin layer of medical carbon lotion is applied to the skin and then removed with a laser. The carbon binds to oil and debris in the pores, and the laser energy helps clear it while gently warming the skin. At Louave in Cheongdam, Gangnam it is used for oily, congested skin, enlarged pores and dullness.
