The laser used in this procedure does two things simultaneously:

1) It targets the melanin (pigmentation) in the skin cells and obliterates it. Your body naturally responds by removing the damaged cells.
2) It sends heat energy deep into the dermis (skin). This causes your skin to tighten and retract.

This particular peel got its name because it is a procedure most of the stars walking the red carpet have done regularly. It’s frequently done a couple days prior to a big Hollywood red carpet event.

For optimal, ongoing results, many patients have made this treatment part of their monthly skin routine because very little, if any, cover up or heavy make-up is required after the treatment. Other patients have the laser peel done just prior to a special event like a wedding, school dance, job interview, or public appearance. With regular monthly treatments, though, you will notice an increase in collagen growth each time and that means tighter, more youthful looking skin more consistently.

A layer of carbon lotion is gently spread across the treatment area. This special lotion requires 10-15 minutes to set. After the carbon lotion has set, there will be one pass of the laser to further set the carbon into the skin. As the laser fires, you will hear a continuous snapping sound. You may experience slight tingling at this point, along with slight warmth as the laser energy removes the carbon and a very fine layer of skin. The entire treatment takes about 30 minutes.

Correct. There is no downtime, but we recommend giving the treatment at least 48 hours for results to fully manifest. Patients should not expect to see full results to be visible for at least 48 hours.

The majority of patients report no pain at all. Most do report a heating sensation during treatment, but that’s the key to collagen stimulation. The collagen stimulation results in the tighter, youthful skin. Without the heat, this crucial aspect of the treatment simply isn’t possible.

The cost of a Hollywood Laser Peel starts at $399 and goes up to $599, depending on the package you choose.
