The surface of our skin is called the cornified layer, or stratum
corneum. The cells are keratinized, making them water-proof. The
DIAMOND DERMABRASION MEDICAL™
technology delivers a stream of micro diamond shaped crystals to
exfoliate this layer of epidermis. Our body interprets the ablation
as an injury and responds by cell division so that new cells are
formed.
What are its benefits?
With new cell growth, Microdermabrasion can remove various visible
imperfections, such as:
- Aged and photodamaged (pigments) skin
- Acne and acne scars
- Uneven skin tone
- Enlarged pores
- Stretch marks
- Wrinkles
As the cornified layer is being scrubbed away, medical lotions
and moisturizers are also more readily absorbed into the deeper
layers of skin.
Microdermabrasion is painless and recovery period is within one
day with little or no redness. Hence, it will not disrupt your daily
activities.
Resurfacing techniques work by “wounding” the skin
so that it is forced to produce collagen, heal and remodel itself.
This may not be true for other harsher techniques. Microdermabrasion
is gentler and thus less traumatic for the skin. It also has a lower
risk of infections.
Silkpeel ("wet" microdermabrasion)
Silkpeel is the latest and most advanced technology in microdermabrasion.
It is different from conventional microdermabrasion because it
uses a wet abrasion method to exfoliate skin and stimulate new
cell growth. Silkpeel is the only procedure that infuses skin specific
dermaceuticals during the treatment. Different solutions
will be used for dry, pigmented or oily skin. After experiencing
Silkpeel, you will find your skin looking and feeling better. Silkpeel
is suitable for ALL skin types. There is no downtime and it is
non-invasive.
