BODY PEEL
Cosmetic-driven research yields an avalanche of products and treatments for all dermatological sub-segments. Many treatments aimed at rejuvenating skin have been developed. Although chemical peels have now been used for more than a century–and despite the availability of new technologies–the treatment is still widely known and employed due to its practicality, low cost, and excellent results. The present study offers a review of all types of peelings recognized by the scientific literature – from the most superficial to the deepest – compiling the practical experience of the authors and detailed descriptions of the application technique, results, and complications

What benefits can I expect from DiamondGlow™?To jump-start your new skin we recommend 3-4 treatments 2 weeks apart and maintenance every 2-3 months. However, even one silk peel will usually refresh your skin for up to six weeks!

What are the risks and side effects of DiamondGlow™?Usually, there is no downtime with the DERMALINFUSION®, but some patients can experience tightening of the skin and mild exfoliation. Post-treatment the skin may be slightly pink but this should last for about one hour.

How will I look and feel during and after my DiamondGlow™?Your skincare professional will choose one or more of our specialized Pro Infusions, formulated to address a variety of skin conditions. The DERMALINFUSION® infuses these products deep into the skin where they are most effective. The solution delivers hydrating, antioxidant, acne-fighting and pore-reducing, and/or lightening infusions into your skin. After cleansing and preparing your skin, your esthetician will perform the procedure with a specialized handpiece. The treatment uses a closed-loop vacuum system resembling that of a wand to exfoliate the skin. An aesthetician will recommend the appropriate topical to infuse the skin and stimulate new cell growth. Each pass gently abrades away dead skin, thoroughly and evenly exfoliating while infusing the treatment solution into the skin. Your skin immediately looks clearer and brighter and definitely feels smoother and your makeup will go on easily. Patients can return back to work post-treatment or resume their everyday routine. Mineral makeup is recommended as it heals and soothes the skin without irritation post-procedure and covers up possible redness which should lighten after a few hours. Most patients report a post-treatment “glow-like appearance” coupled with a feeling of rejuvenation.
