My 1st Absolute Carbon Peel Experience With Face, Body & Aesthetics Medical Centre


Hello Gorgeous! Being a Beauty Enthusiast and Beauty Blogger, I'm constantly trying new beauty treatments in search for the next best find. Yeap, I've tried all kind of beauty treatments except Absolute Carbon Peel. Guess what babes! I recently went to Face, Body & Aesthetics Medical Centre and decided to try out this treatment out of curiosity! So without further ado, here's my first-ever Absolute Carbon Peel treatment experience!

FACE, BODY & AESTHETICS MEDICAL CENTRE


Upon arrival, I was greeted courteously and promptly by their friendly front counter staff. They invited me to sit down in the waiting area and gave me a form to fill out my skin details and concerns. Before proceeding with the treatment, I was led into Doctor's consultation room for a short discussion with Dr. Chiam Chiak Teng. Well babes, if you have been following me here, you probably know that I'm very fussy when it comes to my face. I spent almost half and hour inside asking so many questions. Dr. Chiam gave me his full attention, answered my questions honestly. Y'all know what, asking questions during your consultation is absolutely important for 2 reasons. 
  1. You will know exactly what to expect from your first treatment session.
  2. Enable you to enjoy your beauty treatment without any worries.
 So right after the consultation, I was ushered into the treatment room to begin the procedure.


Modus Operandi
This 30 minutes procedure began with a thorough skin cleansing followed by applying a layer of black carbon lotion on my entire face (left to dry for 15 mins.), and covered my eyes with a special protective goggles (to protect eyes from direct laser beam). Then Dr.Chiam used laser light (a direct short, pulsating beam of light) directed at my facial skin. l could feel the laser pulse as he moved the laser device around my face. Immediately after the carbon was all vaporized, his assistant took over and finished off the treatment by cleaning any remaining lotion and applying skincare products on my face. 

*The laser is used to heat and cause an implosion of the carbon particles the laser light is absorbed by the carbon paste focusing the laser energy on the epidermis. As the laser moves across the skin, the smoke from explosion of carbon particles is gently vacuumed up, exfoliating the skin and removing any debris in the pores. The treatment minimises pore sizes and the thermal effect of the laser beam stimulates collagen renewal. The heat produced also destroys P-acne which causes pimples, thus achieving acne control.

Pain Scale
Absolute Carbon Peel is non-invasive and gentle. Honestly babes, this treatment didn't hurt but only felt slightly prickly zap on my nose and nose wing area. Well, if you have been following me here, you probably know that my pain tolerance is extremely low. Yeap, I'm a lady who will scream like a banshee at the slightest pain but much to my astonishment, I didn't scream a note! I've got to admit that the prickly zaps caused me to flinch a few times but trust me, it was painless procedure.

I would rate my pain on scale as 0-1 out of 10.

The Machine
Face, Body & Skin Aesthetics Medical Centre always care about the level of service. They provide the highest quality treatments using modern technology supported by medical research. Dr. Chiam used this Laser Peel Machine on my face. 



What is Absolute Carbon Peel?
*Absolute Carbon Peel is a gentle and non-invasive laser procedure that uses a carbon layer as a photo-enhancer to improve the skin's radiance, and promote a smooth and glowing complexion. This treatment is used to target active acne as the carbon powder penetrates into pores, thus allowing the laser to focus its energy more effectively. This treatment helps to refine enlarged pores, reduce oil secretion, remove blackheads, and achieve a whitening effect.

  • *Acne
  • *Pores

Outcome
This treatment can be performed during lunchtime or before any special event. The whole process including consultation session only took less than 1 hour with absolutely no downtime. Immediately after this amazing treatment my skin felt tight, fresh, softer and smoother. Honestly, after the treatment, there were some slight pinkish on my cheeks but subsided after a few minutes. I met my friends for lunch right after the treatment without any makeup on. My friends commented that my skin looked radiant and fresh. Of course I felt so happy and fell in love my skin!

Note : Always wear sunscreen wherever you go.


I'm extremely happy and satisfied with Dr Chiam's work. Honestly babes, I felt very anxious and nervous during the entire process, but Dr Chiam made me feel at ease. He didn't rush me and took time to listen to all my skin concerns and answered to my questions honestly and professionally with gracious patience. I must say that Dr. Chiam is very experienced, dedicated, friendly and attentive. I assure you babes, you are in good hands when visiting him!
