How does the Red Carpet Facial work?
It brings two of our most-loved facials into one appointment. First your skin is cleansed, gently exfoliated and cleared of what clogs your pores with painless suction, then bathed in hydrating serums, the steps of a HydraFacial.
Then a fine layer of medical carbon lotion is applied and a Q-switched 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser lifts it away in quick pulses, taking excess oil and dead surface cells with it while gentle warmth reaches the deeper skin, the polish of a carbon laser peel. Your skin leaves fresh, smooth and glowing, ready for the camera.
Who shouldn’t have the Red Carpet Facial?
It isn’t suitable during pregnancy, with an active cold sore or infection on the face, with sunburn or a fresh tan, or if you take isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or medicines that make you sun-sensitive. Your doctor checks this at your consultation.
Your Red Carpet Facial, step by step
- Free consultation: your doctor checks your skin and the date of your event.
- Cleanse and exfoliate: make-up, oil and dull surface cells are lifted away.
- Clear and hydrate: pores are cleared with gentle suction and the skin is flooded with serums.
- Carbon laser polish: carbon lotion goes on and the laser passes over your face.
- Finish: a soothing serum and sunscreen; about 40 minutes in all.
Results and recovery
Your skin looks brighter, smoother and more even as you walk out, with pores that look clearer and less shine. The glow is at its best over the next few days, so the timing before an event matters more than anything else.
A little pinkness from the laser usually fades within a few hours. There is no peeling or flaking, and many patients repeat the facial every month or before each big occasion.
