Diamond peeling: what is it and how is it performed?

Today, the beautiful half of humanity, in addition to folk remedies for rejuvenation and skin care, is available a huge number of different cosmetic procedures of the new generation. Thanks to them, women have more opportunities to extend the youthfulness of the skin, preserve the natural attractiveness and correct minor drawbacks in appearance. These modern procedures include diamond peeling, rather demanded today.

Skin microdermabrasion is a procedure that requires highly skilled craftsmen and the use of professional equipment. It involves the removal of dead cells in the epidermis, with the result that they are replaced by young tissue. After its implementation on the face disappears most of the wrinkles, pigment spots and other manifestations that adversely affect the appearance. The main feature of diamond peeling is high efficiency after the procedure, in addition, it is practically painless.

By microtraumatic diamond polishing activates the production of skin collagen and hyaluronic acid, which are necessary for the health and youth of the skin.

Cosmetic cleaning is most often done using different brushes in the work. Their surface is covered with a special diamond abrasive. Selection of the instrument is carried out on the basis of the state and type of the epidermis, as well as a number of other important nuances that are considered by the master.

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

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

The positive side of the cleaning should include 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 the operation of the apparatus with a nozzle. Vacuum absorbs dust from the crystals and does not allow it to settle on the skin and mucous membranes of the nasopharynx. Otherwise, contact with microparticles would cause a serious irritant effect on the mucous membranes.

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

In order to have a complete understanding of this cosmetic procedure, it is necessary to identify the main tasks that are solved thanks to its implementation.

She helps:

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

• activate the skin regeneration process due to the production of important substances;
• minimize possible skin defects, such as scars;
• remove age spots, freckles;
• to give the complexion uniformity.

According to most dermatologists, microdermabrasion has unique properties that allow it to stand out from the background of traditional skin cleansing. The difference between these methods is that the classical procedure involves exposing the skin to aluminum oxide crystals that are fed to the tip of the working tool. With diamond peels, 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 completely eliminates the risk of penetration of crystals into micro-fractures on the skin.

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

Some masters are of the opinion that cleaning with aluminum oxide will be more effective.Since diamond devices will not be able to adapt and work as little as possible on the tiny drops on the surface of the epidermis.

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

The procedure is shown in such cases:

• enlarged pores, resulting in black spots on the face;
• too dry skin;
• age-related pigmentation;
• freckles;

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

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

As with any cosmetic procedure, microdermabrasion may be contraindicated.

Factors due to which such cleansing is prohibited are:

• vascular fragility and hypersensitivity of the skin;

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

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

For high-quality peeling requires special equipment, in addition, such cleaning should be performed only in salons or clinics, because the result directly depends on it. However, today you can find home cleaning appliances on sale.

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, as well as chart the preparation of the epidermis.

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

• you must refrain from using formulations with chemical exfoliants;
• Do not apply tanning to the skin and do not use the services of a tanning bed;
• before peeling is to refrain from other cosmetic procedures.

Peeling includes a number of mandatory steps.

Approximate scheme of:

• Before starting the procedure, it is necessary to remove makeup, wash off dirt and sebum. To do this, use water and a special cleanser.
• First, the beautician treats the skin, preparing it for peeling. To do this, the epidermis is steamed out, which increases the absorption capacity of the skin and contributes to a lesser response to the conducted 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.

• In the presence of dense comedones with which diamond nozzles can not cope, the beautician preliminarily removes them manually. After that, the epidermis is treated with a vacuum device, allowing to remove excess fat from the face.
• Next is the microdermabrasion itself. For skin treatment specialist uses special spraying brushes. At different sites the master can change the nozzles. Cleaning takes about an hour. Grinding is carried out silently and with virtually no pain.
• At the final stage, the skin is again fed with moisturizing agents. A mask is applied to the face, followed by a cream. Nutrients will help increase the effect of peeling and reduce the swelling of the skin.
• Cold cream or cold compress will help to narrow the pores after polishing. It will also reduce the swelling of the epidermis and redness.

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

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

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

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

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

If the face peeling was performed, then for women, it is useful to use headgear with wide brim, in other cases, clothes will protect the skin from ultraviolet radiation. If we ignore these recommendations, then pigmented spots will appear on the cleaned areas of the epidermis.

In the first week after grinding, you must refrain from strong physical activities and sports, because excessive sweating can cause inflammation and acne. For the same reason, it is worth temporarily abandon the bath and sauna.

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

Regarding the use of decorative cosmetics should further consult with a beautician. In principle, after the procedure, it is recommended to stop applying makeup for a while, but if this is not possible, the salon specialist will help you select a special series of products that will have a sparing effect on the skin that has not yet recovered. For daily nutrition, there are various serums that help moisten and nourish the epidermis.

In any case, applying makeup in the first days should be minimal, it would be more correct 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 at home.

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

In the list of such negative reactions it is worth to highlight the following:

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

According to the reviews, almost all of the above effects can be easily avoided if you rely on professional masters, and also strictly comply with the requirements relating to skin care during the recovery period.

• It is not necessary to perform face resurfacing more than once every two weeks, because the skin will not have enough time to 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 expert opinion in this matter, because diamond polishing does not mean a single cleaning of the epidermis, but a whole range of works on updating it.
• In order to achieve a prolonged effect of grinding, it is necessary to perform cleaning every 1-3 months.
• Diamond peeling is best done in specialized beauty salons. This procedure should be carried out only by professionals using specialized equipment.
