Every modern woman today strives for self-improvement. First of all, this concerns the skin, facial beauty, and self-care. A well-groomed appearance can say a lot about a woman. That is why women are so careful when choosing procedures and means for self-care.

The desire for beauty is a natural desire of a woman to be attractive, to please others. Its roots go deep into antiquity. In the past, women took huge risks to take care of themselves: they used various potent and even toxic substances, endured painful and hours-long procedures, risked their lives in attempts to get a scarce product.

Today, such sacrifices are not required from a woman. Numerous clinics offer a wide range of cosmetic and medical procedures aimed at restoring, rejuvenating the skin, giving it a natural shine, radiance, and freshness.

Diamond facial cleansing has proven itself well, allowing you to achieve the desired effect in the shortest possible time. The procedure is becoming increasingly popular due to its comfort, painlessness, and high efficiency.

What does the term "diamond facial cleansing" mean and what is its essence? The upper layer of the skin contains pores into which dust and various particles penetrate. In addition to everything, the skin synthesizes various secretions of the sebaceous glands, and dead cells accumulate. All this pollutes the pores, causing inflammatory processes in the skin. A rash and numerous pimples appear. Age-related changes in the skin become more noticeable.

Gradually, the skin loses elasticity. This is due to a decrease in the amount of collagen and elastin in the cells. Diamond facial cleansing will help solve these problems.

This procedure is a method of mechanical skin cleaning. During this procedure, all impurities and the surface layer of the epidermis are removed. The pores are cleaned and narrowed, various effects can be easily eliminated. During the procedure, special attachments and diamond spraying are used.

Its essence is that mechanical cleansing of the skin is carried out using a special disk and a fine spray on its surface.

Along with the dirt, dead or transformed cells that have already adapted to functioning in a changed state are removed. It is this property of cells that determines the need for such procedures. The epidermis must be periodically replaced with a new one. As a result of such a procedure, the skin acquires a fresh look and becomes younger.

Indications for the procedure

Diamond cleaning, like any other medical and cosmetic procedure, has a number of indications for implementation. First of all, the procedure is intended for cleaning, rejuvenation of the skin, removal of the upper layer of the epidermis. As a result, pores are significantly narrowed, the skin becomes fresh, rejuvenated.

Another indication for the procedure is skin depigmentation. By removing the epidermis, pigment spots can be eliminated. Fine wrinkles are also smoothed out. Large folds become less noticeable. The procedure makes it possible to remove scars, marks, acne marks, and pimples. Diamond cleaning can remove shallow wrinkles, such as crow's feet and stretch marks.

The procedure is indicated for rejuvenation, for giving shine and vitality to aging skin. Fine wrinkles are almost completely smoothed out. Such effects are achieved due to the fact that the procedure stimulates the synthesis of elastic fibers, collagen, as a result of which a long-term effect is possible. The rejuvenating effect is also achieved due to the fact that the cleaning affects the upper and middle layers of the skin. This eliminates signs of aging.

However, it is necessary to take into account that only one procedure of diamond cleaning will not be enough to completely eliminate the signs of aging. The procedure provides rather "emergency assistance", a cosmetic effect. For serious impact and significant rejuvenation of the entire skin, it is necessary to use a complex effect, as well as conduct a full course of diamond cleaning.

Diamond cleaning is effective for oily and combination skin. It allows you to narrow enlarged pores. As a result, the pores become almost invisible, the skin becomes fresh, turgor and elasticity increase.

There are also direct indications for which the procedure is simply necessary. The diamond procedure must be carried out if expression lines and deep age wrinkles make themselves known. If the skin is bumpy and uneven, it also needs to be polished using diamond cleaning. Small abrasive particles make it possible to eliminate peeling and increased dryness of the skin. If the skin has a pale shade, photoaging processes are observed - this is a direct indication.

Skin scars, acne, scars from medical interventions, illnesses, as well as stretch marks and increased pigmentation can be removed with the help of diamond cleaning.

The method is unique, it promotes fast and effective cleansing of pores, removal of keratinized particles of the epidermis. Dirt and sebum residues are removed. A distinctive feature of this method is the presence of a vacuum, with the help of which the skin is cleaned more intensively. The vacuum sucks out excess sebum and dead cells from the skin. The attachments clean off the upper layer of the epidermis, diamond dust provides reliable protection, and the vacuum sucks it all out, preventing settling on the skin surface and secondary contamination.

This method is more effective because it provides additional massage. It provides more intensive lymph drainage, improves blood circulation. As a result, tissue trophism (nutrition) improves, metabolic and restorative processes in cells are activated. The likelihood of swelling and redness is reduced.

The technique promotes rapid rejuvenation. Moreover, it starts the process of natural rejuvenation of the body, stimulating reproduction, proliferation and differentiation of skin tissue cells.

Care after the procedure

Despite the fact that the recovery period for this procedure is minimal, after the procedure the skin requires certain care and some restrictions. This is due to the fact that during the procedure the upper layer of the epidermis is removed, which means that the natural protective mechanisms and reactions of the skin are disrupted. The skin becomes more vulnerable, more susceptible to environmental factors.

It is recommended to follow the basic recommendations:

  • During the first 24 hours, you cannot be in the sun or sunbathe. You also cannot visit baths or saunas. When going outside, you cannot apply decorative cosmetics. If there is a need to be in the sun and it cannot be avoided, you need to use sunscreen, which is applied in a fairly thick layer;
  • Avoid sports training and physical activity for three days. This is due to the fact that the skin becomes sensitive to sweat and the components that are part of it. Inflammation may occur;
  • For 7 days, it is recommended to use moisturizers and products with a high fat content, as the skin becomes dry. You cannot use lotions containing alcohol, as they further increase the dryness of the skin;
  • You cannot use products that contain retinol, glycolic or lactic acid, or fruit acids;
  • You cannot visit a solarium for a month.

In general, after the procedure, a person can immediately return to the lifestyle that he or she usually leads. Usually, there are no swellings or damages on the face. But care after the procedure plays an important role in preventing the development of various complications and inflammatory processes.
