Diamond peeling: what is it and how is it carried out?

Today, the beautiful half of humanity, in addition to folk rejuvenation and skin care, is available a huge number of different cosmetic procedures of the new generation. Thanks to them, women have more and more opportunities to prolong the youthfulness of the skin, to preserve the natural attractiveness and to correct small disadvantages in appearance. Such modern procedures include the relatively popular today diamond peeling.

Microdermabrasion of the skin is a procedure that requires highly skilled craftsmen and the use of professional equipment. It involves the removal of dead epidermal cells, as a result of which they are replaced by young tissues. After it is carried out, most of the wrinkles, age spots and other manifestations that negatively affect the appearance disappear on the face. The main feature of diamond peeling is its high efficiency after the procedure, in addition, it is almost painless.

By microtrauma, diamond grinding activates the production of collagen and hyaluronic acid by the skin, which are necessary for the health and youth of the skin.

Cosmetic cleaning is most often performed using various brushes in the work. Their surface is coated with a special diamond abrasive. The selection of the tool is based on the condition and type of the epidermis, as well as a number of other important nuances that the master takes into account.

The main objective of this cosmetic procedure is the deep renewal of the skin. That is why diamond peeling is recommended to remove small defects on the skin, such as scars and other injuries.

This is due to the minimum size of the crystals used for purification. Therefore, most often the procedure is carried out without the use of painkillers.

The positive side of cleaning is the absence of even minimal dust emission during the treatment of the epidermis. A similar effect is possible due to a special device that functions during operation of the device with a nozzle. The vacuum absorbs dust from the crystals and prevents it from settling on the skin and mucous membranes of the nasopharynx. Otherwise, contact with microparticles would cause a serious irritating effect on the mucous membranes.

In addition, the vacuum has an additional function - it normalizes blood circulation, which reduces the level of possible swelling after peeling.

In order to have a full understanding of this cosmetic procedure, it is necessary to highlight the main tasks that are solved due to its implementation.

She helps:

• remove dead skin cells;
• cleanse pores of sebum, dirt and black spots;
• prepare the epidermis for more serious procedures;

• to intensify the process of regeneration of the skin due to the production of important substances;
• hide maximum possible skin defects, for example, scars;
• remove age spots, freckles;
• to give complexion uniformity.

According to most dermatologists, microdermabrasion has unique properties that allow it to stand out against the background of traditional skin cleansing. The difference between these methods is that the classical procedure involves exposure to the skin with alumina crystals, which are fed to the tip of the working tool. With diamond peeling, such aggressive contact does not occur. This allows the specialist to work with the most sensitive areas on the face, for example, with the area around the eyes, where wrinkles appear quite early and in large numbers. In addition, during the peeling, the risk of penetration of crystals into micro-fractures on the skin is completely eliminated.

Despite the fact that diamond nozzles are a safe tool, there is still little chance of injury due to the lack of professionalism of the master who will perform the cleaning. In addition, various bacteria may remain on the nozzle head, which can lead to infection under the skin.

Some masters are of the opinion that cleaning with alumina will be more effective., since diamond devices will not be able to adapt and work out tiny differences on the surface of the epidermis as much as possible.

Masters of beauty salons recommend peeling for girls after 25 years. Since at this age you can already see the effect of skin rejuvenation after its use.

The procedure is shown in such cases:

• enlarged pores, as a result of which black dots form on the face;
• too dry skin;
• age-related pigmentation;
• freckles;

• small facial wrinkles;
• aging skin prone to premature aging;
• scars or scars;
• acne
• whiteheads.

Only a qualified master will be able to correctly identify the existing problem and type of epidermis, and based on this, select the necessary tool.

Like any cosmetic procedure, microdermabrasion may be contraindicated.

The factors that prohibit such cleaning are:

• fragility of blood vessels and skin hypersensitivity;
• the presence of inflamed moles, warts, blackheads;
• exacerbation of skin diseases;

• fever;
• the presence of wounds on the skin;
• gastrointestinal tract diseases;
• the procedure is temporarily contraindicated during menstruation, pregnancy and while breastfeeding;
• telangiectasia;

• diabetes;
• sunburn;
• oncology;
• the presence of a pacemaker at the client;
• infectious diseases.

In addition to health restrictions, cleaning is advised to be carried out in summer and winter; off-season is considered an undesirable period for the procedure.

The professional master in the salon should first of all discuss with the client the state of his health and remind about contraindications.

To carry out high-quality peeling, special equipment is required, in addition, such cleaning should be performed only in salons or clinics, since the result directly depends on this. However, today on sale you can find devices for cleaning at home.

After assessing the condition of the skin and the level of existing problems, the specialist will tell you what consequences you may encounter after cleansing, and also will draw up a scheme for preparing the epidermis

It is worth highlighting a number of mandatory recommendations that must be followed for at least two weeks before visiting a cosmetologist:

• it is necessary to refrain from using compounds with chemical exfoliants;
• Do not apply sunburn on the skin and do not use the services of a solarium;
• before peeling, you should refrain from other cosmetic procedures.

Peeling includes a number of mandatory steps.

Approximate scheme of carrying out:

• Before starting the procedure, it is necessary to remove makeup, rinse off dirt and sebum. For this, water and a special cleanser are used.
• First, the cosmetologist treats the skin, preparing it for peeling. To do this, the epidermis is steamed, which increases the absorption capacity of the skin and contributes to a lesser reaction to the ongoing manipulations further.
• To increase the effectiveness of microdermabrasion, the face is treated with a scrub. At the end of the preparatory procedures, a nourishing cream is applied to the skin.

• If there are dense comedones that diamond nozzles cannot handle, the beautician first removes them manually. After this, the epidermis is treated with a vacuum device that allows you to remove excess fat from the face.
• Next, microdermabrasion itself is performed. To treat the skin, the specialist uses special spray brushes. In different areas, the master can change the nozzle. Cleaning takes about an hour. Grinding is carried out silently and practically without pain.
• At the final stage, the skin is again nourished with moisturizers. A mask is applied to the face, followed by cream. Nutrients will help increase the effect of peeling and reduce swelling of the skin.
• Cold cream or a cold compress will help narrow the pores after grinding is finished. It will also reduce swelling of the epidermis and redness.

During diamond polishing, as a rule, painkillers are not used, but local anesthetics can be used for clients with a low pain threshold and sensitive skin.

Beauticians consider the optimal interval between peeling sessions two weeks, but in each case, the frequency may vary up or down. For diamond face peeling on average, it will take about 5 sessions; when polishing the body, everything will depend on the features of cleaning.

As for the “orange peel”, it is possible to smooth out these phenomena on average for 6 visits to a cosmetologist-dermatologist.

To maintain the effect after diamond brushing, a visit to the beautician should be regular.

As for the recovery period after microdermabrasion, the main requirement is the exclusion of contact of the skin with direct sunlight. The time spent in the sun should be minimal, in addition, the face must be protected with special creams or sprays with a high level of protection.

If face peeling was performed, then it would be superfluous for the fair sex to use hats with wide brim, in other cases, clothing will protect the skin from ultraviolet radiation. If these recommendations are neglected, then pigment spots will form on the cleaned areas of the epidermis.

In the first week after grinding, it is necessary to refrain from strong physical exertion and sports, since profuse sweating can cause inflammation and acne. For the same reason, it is worth temporarily abandoning the bathhouse and sauna.

This is due to the properties of the substance to dry the epidermis, which can significantly increase the recovery period after microdermabrasion.

Regarding the use of makeup, it is worth consulting with a cosmetologist. In principle, after the procedure, it is recommended to temporarily abandon the application of makeup, but if this is not possible, a salon specialist will help you choose a special series of products that will have a gentle effect on the skin that has not yet been restored. For daily nutrition, there are various serums that will help moisturize and nourish the epidermis.

In any case, the application of makeup in the early days should be minimal, it would be more appropriate to temporarily use products that are intended for skin prone to allergic reactions.

To minimize inflammation and irritation, the master will recommend nutritional formulations that should be applied to the face of the house.

Since the procedure under consideration is quite serious, it is necessary to be informed and prepared for possible side effects after its implementation.

In the list of such negative reactions, it is worth highlighting the following:

• due to errors made by a specialist during the illiterate use of the instrument, microcracks may form on the skin;
• the epidermis after microdermabrasion can become inflamed;
• due to non-compliance with the recommendations of the master and pastime in the sun on the skin, pigmentation may occur;
• swelling of the face.

According to reviews, almost all of the above consequences can be easily avoided if you trust professional masters, as well as strictly comply with the requirements for skin care during the recovery period.

• You should not perform face resurfacing more than once every two weeks, since the skin does not have time to sufficiently recover after the procedure.
• The duration of treatment in each case is determined individually, since there are no completely similar problems with the epidermis. It is best to trust the opinion of a specialist in this matter, because diamond grinding does not imply a single cleaning of the epidermis, but a whole range of work to update it.
• To achieve a prolonged effect from grinding, it is worth cleaning once every 1-3 months.
• Diamond peeling is best done in specialized cosmetology salons. Such a procedure should only be carried out by professionals using specialized equipment.
• To increase the positive result of cleansing, cosmetologists recommend additionally performing manual cleaning or laser skin treatment.
