WHAT IS DIAMOND PEELING?
Diamond peeling, also known as microdermabrasion, is an aesthetic treatment that deeply exfoliates the skin, removing dead cells from the most superficial layer. It is very effective in removing blemishes and combating wrinkles because it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for keeping the skin firm and uniform.
Although it is more suitable for facial treatments, diamond peeling can also be performed on other areas of the body, such as the neck, chest, arms and back, to remove small marks left by scars, for example. In addition, it is also a good therapeutic complement to eliminate white or red stretch marks.
Diamond peeling is painless and immediately after the procedure you can return to work and social activities, unlike what happens when you have a chemical peel, where you have to stay away from these activities for a few days.
The great advantage of diamond peeling is that it is less invasive than other peels and therefore can be used on more skin types as it causes less damage than other types.
BENEFITS OF DIAMOND PEELING
Diamond peeling has several benefits and can be used to:
- Remove spots present in the most superficial layer of the skin, known as melanosis;
- Treat acne scars;
- Smooth and remove wrinkles;
- Unclog pores;
- Treat stretch marks;
- Reduce skin oiliness.
Diamond peeling works by exfoliating the skin using specific equipment, which, in addition to removing the layer of dead cells, stimulates collagen production, improving the appearance, texture and appearance of the skin.
WHEN IS IT NOT INDICATED?
Diamond peeling is not recommended for people with very sensitive, inflamed skin or acne grades II, III or IV. In these cases, it is necessary to wait until the skin is healed and the dermatologist authorizes the procedure to avoid injuries.
HOW MANY SESSIONS SHOULD I DO?
The number of diamond peeling sessions depends on the condition of the person's skin and the objective of the treatment, and it may take two to five sessions or more to achieve the desired result.
Sessions typically last 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the area to be treated, the interval between each session should be 15 to 30 days.
To protect the skin and prevent the appearance of new spots and other complications, some precautions must be taken from the first diamond peeling session:
-
Avoid sun exposure
-
Regular and essential use of creams recommended by the dermatologist to hydrate and regenerate the skin
-
Use of sunscreen with a minimum factor of 50 FPS
-
If possible, use thermal water to soothe your skin.
-
Moderate use of makeup
Regarding care before treatment, it is recommended to stop using acids for at least 48 hours beforehand.
ON WHICH AREA OF THE BODY CAN I USE THE DIAMOND PEELING ?
Diamond peeling can be used on any part of the body.
In addition to facial use (wrinkles, blemishes, enlarged pores), the most common are: neck rejuvenation (reducing wrinkles and fine lines), hand rejuvenation (improving texture, fine wrinkles and blemishes) and for red and white stretch marks.
