Read on to learn about this gentle and effective procedure from Blush Aesthetics.
What is a laser facial?
The Red Carpet laser facial is a non-ablative fractional laser that’s so gentle it’s practically painless and has very little downtime! Using the Sciton ClearSilk or EVO non-ablative 1064 NdYAG lasers, we provide a treatment that produces major results without the recovery process associated with more intense procedures.
Laser facials, or laser skin resurfacing, are perfect for:
- Improving skin tone
- Reducing the appearance of pores
- Eliminating dark spots and freckles
- Smoothing and brightening skin
- Improving skin laxity
- Treating acne
The 1064 laser uses pulsing beams of light to gently heat the lower layers of the skin to stimulate collagen, heal blood vessels, and decrease inflammation and acne. Unlike ablative lasers that destroy the top layers of your skin, this non-ablative laser facial preserves the outer layer and penetrates the deeper layers.
The process rejuvenates the skin by encouraging collagen and elastin production, which are important aspects for healthy, youthful skin. With a Red Carpet laser facial, you’ll have skin that looks rested, renewed, and gorgeous without any effort!
When should you schedule a Red Carpet facial?
If you are scheduling a Red Carpet laser facial to achieve a stunning glow for an event, we recommend scheduling at least one week in advance. Results from this laser are immediate, but they’re also progressive. So you can expect your skin to continue improving in tone and appearance over the days and weeks following your appointment.
For maximum results, we recommend an initial set of 3 to 5 treatments spaced about a month apart. This is followed by maintenance treatments every 3 to 6 months and voila! Regular Red Carpet facials can push back permanent plastic surgery for years. Since it works from the inside out, it goes deeper than just a surface improvement.
How much does a Red Carpet laser facial cost?
Because adequate treatment will be unique to each person, we can’t give an exact answer on how much a Red Carpet laser facial costs. Usually it’s going to range from $150 to $295. The best way to learn how much you can expect to spend is to schedule a consultation! We will analyze your skin and determine the best possible treatment to get the results you want.
Are laser facials safe?
Laser facials are safe! We are highly trained in the proper operation of these machines. The best part is that the 1064 laser is less intense than a traditional Fraxel laser. This gentle treatment provides brilliant results!
We also tailor each treatment to each individual patient. Our nurse practitioners can adjust the settings on the Red Carpet laser facial to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the entire procedure.
Who can get a laser facial?
You need to be at least 18 years old to get a laser facial in Toledo. It’s a great choice for anyone who is concerned about large pores, hyperpigmentation, sun-spots, acne, acne scars, and wrinkles. There are a lot of benefits to laser facials!
The Red Carpet laser facial is perfect for anyone who wants to improve their skin’s healthy glow!
What to expect from your Red Carpet laser facial treatment
Because each Red Carpet laser facial treatment is customized to each individual patient, everyone will expect something slightly different! Our experts will thoroughly explain your individualized plan.
The Red Carpet laser facial is the only laser facial that is so gentle there is no need for numbing! We just cleanse your skin and begin the laser skin resurfacing treatment. In general, each treatment lasts about 20 minutes with immediate benefits visible! We recommend 2 to 4 follow-up sessions for more permanent results, but the beauty of a Red Carpet facial is the lack of downtime and immediate glow!

Aftercare skincare
After your laser facial treatment, you should apply non-irritating and non-clogging skin products for at least the first week. We commonly recommend drugstore brands like Neutrogena. Avoid abrasive scrubs or toners and anything that contains glycolic acid or Retin A.
SUNSCREEN IS YOUR BEST FRIEND EXCEPT FOR IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING A LASER FACIAL! Sunscreen can clog pores. ALSO avoid the sun! If you absolutely have to be in the sun, wear a hat and clothing to cover the treated area.
Once you feel comfortable, bring the sunscreen back. Wear. That. Sunscreen! Invest in quality sunscreen that feels good on your face (so you’ll actually apply it) and offers broadband protection against UVA and UVB rays. It should have an SPF of 30 or more. Apply 20 minutes before going outside and apply a fresh layer right before going out. Reapply every 2 hours. Diligent sunscreen use lowers the risk of hyperpigmentation from laser use!
What’s the downtime after a Red Carpet laser facial?
Everyone’s skin reacts differently to a laser facial. Downtime can be as little as a few hours or it could be a couple days depending on the type of laser. However, the side effects are gentle compared to ablative lasers. You can expect minimal swelling, redness. This treatment is so gentle, we can perform it every two weeks, although we recommend around a month between the initial 3 to 5 appointments.
How does the Red Carpet laser facial work?
By using the the 1064 laser, we refresh skin from the inside out. The laser heats the tissue gently for excellent healing and anti-inflammatory effects beneath the skin’s surface. This encourages the production of collagen and elastin while also promoting cellular turnover and regeneration. All skin types can benefit from this non-ablative laser! Your skin will look soft, fresh, and radiant after your Red Carpet laser facial treatments.
So, what have we learned about laser facials?
Even though we’ve been using medical lasers for decades (including on the actual eyeball!), it’s totally understandable to want to feel prepared and knowledgeable about them. So let’s review what we’ve talked about.
What is the Red Carpet facial?
The Red Carpet laser facial is a customizable, gentle laser facial near you that provides effective results with very little downtime compared to full strength fractional lasers.
How is it performed?
We perform Red Carpet facials with 1064 wavelength laser, which is non-ablative and therefore very comfortable and less harsh than ablative lasers. It directs heat energy deeper into the skin to improve collagen and elastin production.
Who should get a laser facial?
Gentle laser facials like the Red Carpet facial are perfect for anyone looking to get a gorgeous glow for a special event. Laser facials are also amazing for:
- Improving skin tone
- Reducing the appearance of pores
- Smoothing and brightening skin
- Improving skin laxity
- Treating acne
How many treatments are needed?
For maximum results, we recommend 3 to 5 initial appointments scheduled about a month apart, followed by maintenance treatments every 3 to 6 months.
What should be expected from an appointment?
We will cleanse your skin and begin the laser skin treatment. Each Red Carpet treatment takes about 20 to 30 minutes to complete. Most patients are able to resume their normal activities for the day immediately afterwards!
Are there side effects or risks?
Expected effects include mild swelling and redness, followed by beautiful, evenly toned skin. Most patients see an immediate improvement in their skin that continues to improve over time. Because the1064 non-ablative laser is so much gentler than traditional ablative lasers, it significantly reduces the risk associated with the procedure. The rare risks that can be associated with other laser facials are totally eliminated with the Red Carpet laser facial.
