The diamond peeling, also known as microdermabrasion, is an aesthetic treatment that exfoliates the skin, removing the dead cells from the most superficial layer, being very efficient to remove the spots and fight wrinkles because it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which are key to keeping the skin firm and even.
Although it is most suitable for facials, diamond peeling can also be performed on other regions of the body such as the neck, neck, arms and back, to remove small patches left by scars, for example. In addition, it is also a good therapeutic supplement to eliminate white or red stretch marks.
The diamond peeling does not hurt and soon after the procedure it is possible to return immediately to work and its social activities, unlike what happens when a chemical peeling is done, in which it is necessary to move away from these activities for a few days. Learn more about chemical peeling.
