Hollywood Peel in Medellín
The Hollywood Peel is a non-invasive treatment that combines a laser with an activated charcoal mask to work on the appearance of the skin. It exfoliates, clears impurities, helps regulate oil production and works on the luminosity of the face.
The charcoal is the point: the laser targets the carbon particles sitting in the pores, which is how the exfoliation reaches further than a surface peel. Whether it suits your skin is confirmed at the assessment, particularly if there is active inflammatory acne.
Benefits of the Hollywood Peel
Deep cleansing
The activated charcoal mask absorbs impurities and excess oil, leaving the skin cleaner and fresher.
Gentle but effective exfoliation
The laser removes dead cells, which promotes cell renewal and works on skin texture.
Enlarged pores
By cleansing the skin deeply and stimulating collagen, it helps reduce the appearance of pore size.
Oil control and acne-prone skin
It helps regulate sebum production, which is what makes it useful on oily and acne-prone skin. It is part of the approach to acne, not a treatment for acne on its own.
More even skin tone
It works on the appearance of marks, hyperpigmentation and redness, for a more even tone.
An immediate fresh look
It softens fine lines and works on firmness through the stimulation of collagen and elastin, which is why it is often chosen before an event.
How the Hollywood Peel is done
The Hollywood Peel is a quick, non-invasive procedure carried out in stages, which is what allows both the deep cleansing and the controlled exfoliation in the same session.

Questions?
Frequently asked questions about the Hollywood Peel
How many sessions are needed?
There is a visible change from the first session. For a longer-lasting effect, 3 to 5 sessions are usually recommended, depending on your skin and what you want to work on.
Does it hurt?
It is generally well tolerated. During the treatment there is a mild sensation of heat and small snapping sounds on the skin, without significant discomfort.
How long does it take?
Around 30 to 45 minutes, with no recovery time, which is why it is often done before an event.
Can I have it if I have acne?
It is used on acne-prone skin, because it helps reduce oil production, clear pores and work on the appearance of mild acne marks. 🔴 With severe active breakouts, an assessment comes first: acne is a medical condition and the laser is not its treatment.
What is the aftercare?
After the Hollywood Peel you will be asked to:
- Use sunscreen, which is what prevents post-treatment pigmentation.
- Keep the skin hydrated with gentle products.
- Avoid exfoliants and harsh products for the first few days.
Is it suitable for every skin type?
It is used on a wide range of skin types, including sensitive skin, and the parameters are adjusted to each one. A consultation beforehand is what determines whether it suits your skin — particularly on darker skin, where laser settings matter most.
How long do the effects last?
Several weeks, depending on your skin type and on the aftercare. A monthly session is the usual interval to maintain the effect, or whatever the doctor indicates for your case.
Can I wear makeup afterwards?
Light makeup can be applied afterwards, though waiting at least 24 hours is recommended so the skin can settle first.
