What Is It?
-
A diamond peel treatment is a non-surgical procedure in which the skin is exfoliated to remove dead skin cells using actual diamond chips to vacuum the skin away. In order to do this, the top layer of skin is removed in order to rejuvenate the skin. The epidermal cell structure is actually restored, increasing the skin's elasticity and collagen levels.
Procedure
-
During a Diamond Peel, a skilled professional gently runs a hand-held device with a diamond tipped wand over the skin. A steady layer of diamond dust is applied to the skin and then vacuumed away, exfoliating away dead skin cells and removing fine lines and wrinkles. Wand tips of varying sizes are used to get into the tighter areas, such as around the eyes, nose, and mouth. Wands of different coarseness are also used on spots of the face where the skin is more sensitive. Each treatment should take about 20 minutes, but may take longer depending on the special needs of your skin. For instance, if you are getting treatment for deep stretch marks or another specific skin condition, the procedure will take longer because they require more thorough, focused work. Diamond peels typically cost around $100 to $200 per visit. However, these prices vary greatly depending on the city you live in and the salon or spa you choose.

Results
-
Immediately following treatment, your skin will look slightly pink and rosy, but should not be irritated or red. Even after the first treatment, you will see visible results. Age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, freckles, and stretch marks will be less noticeable, or may disappear completely. The results of each treatment will not be lost, but instead will gradually improve with each treatment you have. For long-term results, you will need to schedule regular maintenance appointments to ensure that the effects of your peel are not lost.
Advantages
-
Diamond peels are popular due to their many advantages. First of all, a diamond peel is an effective, safe and precise treatment that will produce the results you want without requiring any surgical procedures. Diamond peels are not irritating or uncomfortable, and are in fact, considered painless. One of the biggest advantages of a diamond peel treatment is that there is no unsightly redness or peeling following the procedure, so you can go back to your day-to-day activities immediately following treatment.
