Deep Detox with Charcoal Peels: A Complete Guide for Glowing Skin
Unlock the Power of Charcoal Peels: Deep Detox for Radiant Skin
At Ideal Body Clinic, we’re proud to offer charcoal peel treatments—a powerful and purifying skincare solution that deeply detoxifies, exfoliates, and rejuvenates the skin. Whether you’re a skincare professional looking to master this technique or a client seeking a fresh glow, charcoal peels deliver noticeable results with minimal downtime.
1. Introduction to Charcoal Peels
Charcoal has been used for centuries in natural medicine, known for its purifying and detoxifying properties. In recent years, activated charcoal has become a star ingredient in skincare thanks to its ability to absorb toxins, dirt, and excess oil from the skin.
When applied as a peel, it helps cleanse pores, remove dead skin cells, and give the complexion a smoother, clearer, and more radiant look.
