Dr Elif Red Carpet Laser (Hollywood Laser Peel)

Dr Elif Red Carpet Laser (Hollywood Laser Peel)

Dr Elif Red Carpet Laser is our Hollywood Laser Peel – a carbon laser facial in which a carbon lotion is applied to the skin and then treated with laser, for clearer pores, smoother texture and an even, glowing complexion. It is the same treatment we previously listed as Hollywood Laser, now part of our dermatologist-designed Dr Elif Medical Facials at Dr Elif Clinic, 54 Harley Street, London. A session takes 45–60 minutes and any redness usually settles within 24 hours.

What is the Hollywood Laser Peel?

The Hollywood Laser Peel, also called the Hollywood Laser Facial or carbon laser peel, is a two-step laser treatment. First a carbon lotion is applied and allowed to settle into the skin; then laser energy is passed over the skin to treat it. It became known as the “Hollywood” or “red carpet” facial because it is often booked before an event for fresh, glowing skin – which is where our name, Red Carpet Laser, comes from.

Who is Red Carpet Laser for?

  • Oily skin and active acne
  • Enlarged pores
  • Uneven texture and fine lines
  • Uneven tone, age spots and sun damage
  • Anyone who wants a glow before an event, with minimal downtime

If acne has already left marks or scars, our acne scar treatment is designed for that. For acne-prone skin that needs a fuller protocol with extractions and blue LED, see Dr Elif Acne Clarity; for pigmentation, see Dr Elif Pigment Reset.

What happens during the treatment

  1. Your skin is cleansed
  2. A carbon lotion is applied and left to settle into the skin
  3. Laser energy is passed over the treated area
  4. You can return to your day afterwards – your skin may look pink for up to 24 hours

How our Red Carpet Laser works

  • Dermatologist-designed protocol, carried out by trained skin therapists
  • 45–60 minutes per session
  • Single session or a course of 3 or 6, spaced 3–4 weeks apart
  • Minimal downtime – redness for up to 24 hours
  • Not suitable during pregnancy or with an active skin infection

Red Carpet Laser or HydraFacial?

A HydraFacial cleanses, extracts and hydrates without laser. Red Carpet Laser adds a laser step, so it is the better choice when oily skin, pores or texture are the main concern. For both together, Dr Elif LaserGlow combines laser rejuvenation with a HydraFacial and LED light.
