DIAMOND MICRODERMABRASION
It is a mechanical peeling that involves controlled abrasion of the epidermis using a head covered with diamond crystals. Microdermabrasion primarily cleanses our skin of dead, keratinized cells as well as impurities (dirt, dust, makeup residues, bacteria). In addition, it also affects the deeper layers of the skin because it stimulates cells to produce collagen and elastin and stimulates the skin to regenerate and rebuild. Exfoliation occurs gradually, so it is a completely safe and painless treatment. Additionally, the created vacuum causes exfoliation, which restores freshness and radiance to the skin. Vacuum therapy lifts wrinkle lines, visibly increases muscle tension, visibly smoothing facial wrinkles.
WHO IS DIAMOND MICRODERMABRASION FOR?
Microdermabrasion treatment is suitable for people of all ages and skin types, both for those with oily, dry, combination and mature skin, as well as for those with sensitive and vascular skin.

WHAT DOES A MICRODERMABRASION TREATMENT LOOK LIKE?
After initial cleansing (make-up removal), a special head covered with diamond crystals is applied to the skin. By moving it over the skin with light pressure, we achieve an abrasive effect and the exfoliated, calloused epidermis is sucked into the device. Microdermabrasion treatment, depending on needs, can be performed on various body surfaces (face, neck, cleavage, back, arms, legs).
TREATMENT FREQUENCY
The microdermabrasion treatment can be performed once or in a series of 2 to 10 treatments at intervals of 1 to 4 weeks. The amount and frequency are selected individually to the needs of the patient's skin. In order to maintain and consolidate the effects, it is recommended to repeat the treatment every 4-6 weeks. It is worth remembering not to perform microdermabrasion in the summer, when sunlight is the highest. The treatment is recommended to be performed in early spring and autumn.
