WHAT IS DIAMOND PEELING?
Diamond peeling, also known as microdermabrasion, is an aesthetic treatment that makes a deep exfoliation of the skin, removing dead cells from the most superficial layer, being very efficient to remove spots and fight wrinkles because it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin , which are fundamental to keep the skin firm and uniform.
Despite being more suitable for facial treatments, diamond peeling can also be performed in other regions of the body such as the neck, décolleté, arms and back, to remove small spots left by scars, for example. In addition, it is also a good therapeutic complement to eliminate white or red stretch marks.
Diamond peeling does not hurt and soon after the procedure it is possible to return immediately to work and social activities, unlike what happens with a chemical peeling, in which it is necessary to stay away from these activities for a few days.
The great advantage of diamond peeling is that it is less invasive than other peelings and therefore can be used on more skin types as it causes less damage than other types.
DIAMOND PEELING BENEFITS
Diamond peeling has several benefits and can be used for:
- Remove spots present in the most superficial layer of the skin, known as melanoses;
- Treat acne scars;
- Smooth and remove wrinkles;

Diamond peeling works from an exfoliation, performed with the aid of specific equipment, which in addition to removing the layer of dead cells, stimulates collagen production, improving the appearance, texture and appearance of the skin.
