Diamond peeling is an improved version of microdermabrasion (skin micro-resurfacing), carried out using a special vacuum device, which is equipped with a diamond-coated nozzle.
Diamond coating on nozzles has different densities, dispersion and particle sizes, and the nozzles themselves have different shapes and diameters of the working surface for treating different zones. The depth and strength of the impact also depends on these factors.
Our clinic uses the JIMYW9 PeelingSystem device, which is one of the most progressive, safe and effective to date.
The goals of diamond peeling are to make the skin even, smooth and velvety, give it a sleek and glowing appearance, neutralize minor surface defects and cleanse pores.
The effect of diamond peeling is achieved by exfoliating the stratum corneum and drawing out dirt from the pores, which prevents the skin from receiving oxygen, minerals and regenerating.
What is diamond grinding
At its core, diamond facial microdermabrasion is a superficial, mechanical peeling of the upper layer of the epidermis. The procedure occurs due to the effect of vacuum and the operation of micro-abrasive elements on a special attachment of the device.
The combined action of both of these factors helps to carry out a high-quality procedure for cleansing the stratum corneum of the epidermis, removing dead skin cells, and obtaining the effect of skin rejuvenation and lightening. The relief is also leveled and the quality and tone of the dermis is improved.
How is dermabrasion performed at the WOSK salon?
We provide gentle facial peeling in a comfortable beauty salon. At the initial consultation, a specialist will conduct a thorough examination, identify problems, find out how you care for your skin, what procedures you do, and what effect you want to achieve. Based on the examination results, the cosmetologist selects a nozzle, the degree of abrasiveness, and determines the depth of cleansing.
Since microdermabrasion only affects the superficial layer of the face, the patient does not experience pain. A slight tingling sensation may be felt during the session. If you have a low pain threshold or hypersensitive facial skin, the specialist will offer local anesthesia.
Diamond peeling machine
In our salon, the procedure is carried out using a modern, certified Dimond Skin device (YL-C609). This cosmetology device uses diamond-coated attachments, with the help of which, as well as due to the vacuum created by the device, the dead cells of the stratum corneum of the epidermis are delicately removed.
For more information about the diamond peeling machine, watch the video:
The device for diamond microdermabrasion is equipped with attachments for different areas of the body. They differ in the size of the nozzle itself and the size of the abrasive elements.
This cosmetology device is also designed for ultrasonic facial cleansing and vacuum roller massage.
Informative
A good advantage of diamond facial peeling is an excellent vacuum massage, which has a beneficial effect on the treated area of the skin.
Microdermabrasion: contraindications
Microdermabrasion - reviews, as a rule, have only positive ones. In addition, this is an extremely safe treatment method. But the possible risks of alternative treatment methods (dermabrasion, laser resurfacing, peeling) are much higher than microdermabrasion.
Contraindications –
- if you are currently taking aspirin or blood thinners.
- Patients using the drug Isotretinoin or who have taken it within the previous 6-12 months – microdermabrasion is contraindicated due to the increased risk of scarring.
Possible TEMPORARY side effects of microdermabrasion:
- skin redness,
- small abrasions (Fig. 12),
- skin sensitivity,
- the appearance of spider veins,
- exacerbation of herpes in the lip area,
- minor bruising (especially if you are taking aspirin or other blood thinners),
- Overly aggressive microdermabrasion can lead to the development of inflammation in certain areas of the skin, and as a result, to areas of inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
How to behave after the procedure -
Most people can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Makeup and non-irritating creams can usually be applied immediately after the procedure. Research has shown that microdermabrasion can temporarily make it easier for substances to penetrate the skin by increasing its permeability. To hydrate and plump the skin after microdermabrasion, it is best to use creams and serums with hyaluronic acid.
Important: remember that after the procedure you must use a moisturizer with sun protection (preferably with SPF 30). This is necessary because UV radiation can cause uneven skin tone.
Microdermabrasion Alternatives –
Due to the fact that the procedure involves only the most superficial layer of the skin, microdermabrasion has the following advantages: firstly, a low risk of complications and side effects, and secondly, rapid skin restoration compared to less gentle methods of skin resurfacing. However, you need to understand that the more gentle the procedure, the less potential benefit it can bring.
Alternatives to microdermabrasion are:
- dermabrasion,
- peeling (chemical),
- skin resurfacing with fractional laser.
How is diamond peeling performed?
The diamond microdermabrasion protocol is not much different from other hardware techniques in cosmetology.
First, we carry out high-quality, thorough makeup removal and disinfection of the client’s skin using chlorhexidine bigluconate or hydrogen peroxide. After this stage, it is worth blotting the client’s skin with an absorbent disposable napkin in order to make it completely dry.
Next comes the diamond microdermabrasion procedure itself, which is performed on dry skin using linear movements.
On a note:
Before each procedure, the doctor inserts a new special filter attachment for the desquamated epithelium.
Having turned on the device, the cosmetologist, using the vacuum regulator knob on the diamond peeling device, sets the parameters of the intensity of the effect, starting with the minimum indicators and during the procedure he can increase them.
As already written, the procedure is carried out with linear movements, short strokes, using a diamond peeling attachment. The cosmetologist fixes the area of skin being treated with his left hand, and manipulates the nozzle with his right hand.
It is important!
It is advisable to treat the same zone (line) no more than 5 times.
The paraorbital zone is processed very carefully since the skin here is very thin. To treat the nose, its tip must be tilted in one direction, fixed, and the nozzle must be passed in the opposite direction the required number of times.

Dermatocosmetologist, 14 years of experience
Expert comment: “The correct reaction of the skin to the procedure is slight hyperemia in the affected area. The redness will subside a couple of minutes after the procedure.”
All areas of the face are treated in a similar way: with short strokes, linear in the direction of the massage lines of the face, in the direction of lymph flow.
The total duration of the procedure (when treating one area) is 40, maximum 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
Upon completion of the procedure, we re-treat the skin with a solution of chlorhexidine bigluconate and apply a soothing cream or mask for the skin problem.
Complementary procedure
After diamond resurfacing of the face, we recommend applying an alginate mask to address the skin problem. These two procedures go well together and give excellent results. You can purchase a mask in our online store for cosmetologists.
Indications for diamond microdermabrasion
According to the recommendations of professional cosmetologists, the procedure is recommended for no earlier than 18 years of age. Diamond peeling is a completely safe procedure, so the main indication is to restore the healthy appearance of the skin and maintain the aesthetic beauty of the skin.
It is worth noting that diamond microdermabrasion is a real discovery for women who have been unsuccessfully fighting postpartum stretch marks for a long time.
Indications for diamond peeling include:
- dry skin;
- presence of pigments and hyperpigmentation;
- peeling of the skin;
- noticeable signs of skin aging;
- presence of wrinkles;
- presence of scars;
- postpartum stretch marks;
- stretch marks on the surface of the abdomen and thighs;
- enlarged pores;
- the presence of black spots on the face;
- unevenness of the skin layers;
- dull skin tone.
How many diamond peeling procedures do you need to do?
Like any cosmetological hardware technique, diamond peeling in a beauty salon is carried out in a course. The average number of procedures in a course is from 5 to 10.
It is not advisable to do diamond microdermabrasion during the active summer period, because... the stratum corneum of the epidermis is removed and its cells become more exposed to ultraviolet radiation from the sun
In winter, autumn and spring, it is mandatory to use sunscreen with SPF after the procedure.
Microdermabrasion of the face: beauty salon or at home
Microdermabrasion does not require a visit to a beauty salon. It can be done independently at home if you have the proper equipment. You just need to complete the necessary preparation for the procedure and follow all the mandatory care rules, including those provided after finishing the grinding.
However, you should not take risks if you have doubts about your professionalism and qualifications. In addition, conducting a cosmetic session in a salon is significantly cheaper than purchasing the equipment necessary to apply this method yourself. If you do not plan to provide mechanical grinding services at home and doubt your abilities, we recommend contacting a specialist who will perform it professionally and in compliance with all necessary precautions. In addition, in the salon you can consult on all types of microdermabrasion and try this method on yourself. Gorodskoy will help residents of Moscow and the Moscow region receive not only detailed information about mechanical resurfacing, but also recommendations for self-care of facial skin.

Photos before and after diamond facial peeling
The effect of microdermabrasion is noticeable after the first procedure. Skin looks fresher, healthier, smoother. Read reviews about diamond facial peeling, before and after the procedure, under the article in the comments of our clients.
Microdermabrasion of the face at home
As you already understand, cosmetologists strongly recommend microdermabrasion as one of the most effective ways to regenerate facial skin. However, to achieve the best results, it must be done regularly. If you do not have the opportunity or desire to visit beauty salons and undergo sessions, you can purchase a specially developed cosmetic complex for home use.
Micro-grinding is carried out using a dense air flow. Aluminum oxide crystals under high pressure penetrate deeply into the layers of the epidermis, freeing them from accumulated impurities and dead cells. Renewed skin is saturated with oxygen, microcirculation improves, the oval of the face is tightened, pores are cleaned and reduced. Experts recommend home microdermabrasion from the age of 15.
This procedure is suitable for all skin types. Acting as gently as possible, it is safe even for particularly sensitive areas around the eyes or around the lips. Glycolic peeling significantly increases the effectiveness of the effect if used in combination with microdermabrasion. All layers of the skin are deeply cleansed, which improves complexion and reduces blemishes. Contraindications for home resurfacing procedures are various inflammations, pustular formations, as well as rosacea (vascular network).
If you decide to master microdermasia on your own for personal use, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the latest cosmetic products from the world's leading manufacturers.
RoC Renewex Microdermabrasion System
The RoC company has developed one of the most effective complexes for micro-grinding at home. As with salon dermabrasion, peeling is carried out through the use of a device that delivers a dense air flow with aluminum oxide microcrystals to the skin. At the end of the session, it is recommended to apply a special cream that accelerates the regeneration of epidermal cells and moisturizes. Using the complex from the RoC company helps renew the skin, revitalize the complexion, and wrinkles become less noticeable. However, if an allergic reaction occurs, use of the system should be discontinued.
Mary Kay Microdermabrasion System
One of the most affordable at-home microdermabrasion complexes is offered by Mary Kay. A deep cleansing scrub containing aluminum microcrystals polishes the skin, freeing it from dead cells. The procedure ends with the use of a serum that contains glycerin and caffeine, which saturate the epidermis with moisture, and your renewed face looks smoother and fresher.
Microdermabrasion system from Oriflame
The Swedish cosmetics manufacturer offers one of the most affordable and convenient microdermabrasion complexes for girls over 25 years old. This two-component system, consisting of a cleansing cream and a soothing serum, will allow you not only to carry out high-quality micro-resurfacing in comfortable conditions, but also to independently regulate the duration of the session and the amount of products applied. After a course of exfoliating procedures with Oriflame products, the skin looks smoother and renewed thanks to the natural vitamins included in their composition.
Vichy microdermabrasion system
The complex for home micro-polishing from Vichy includes three components:
- Exfoliator containing glycolic acid;
- Cream with aluminum oxide microcrystals;
- Serum RN 7, saturating the skin with moisture.
The price of this complex is very affordable. After 21 days of course use, the skin is evened out, its shine decreases, and minor imperfections become less noticeable. Photos before and after microdermabrasion with Vichy products demonstrate a significant improvement in the condition of the epidermis.
After grinding, you must follow a few simple rules:
- Use vitamin creams and lotions that maintain the desired level of epidermal moisture.
- Avoid using cosmetics with glycolic or lactic acids.
- Exfoliating scrubs are prohibited for 3 days after the procedure.
- Protect your skin from ultraviolet radiation. Use special creams with SPF protection of at least 20.
- It is better to postpone visiting the fitness room or sauna for a while. At this time, the skin of the face is especially sensitive to external pollutants (sweat, dust) and temperature changes.
- The use of decorative cosmetics is possible only after two days after the end of the procedure.
Carrying out microdemabrasion at home maintains the healthy state of the epidermis and provides the necessary care. For those with young facial skin, this will allow them to maintain their freshness and blooming appearance for a long time and avoid serious cosmetic procedures. At an older age, deep peeling will help delay the withering and loss of elasticity of the epidermis. However, microdermabrasion on its own will not get rid of more significant problems, such as acne, scars, and age spots. In this case, we recommend contacting a specialist who will select a set of treatment procedures and competent care to get rid of imperfections in the skin of the face or body.
Be sure to read the instructions for using home peeling products. Avoid using these complexes too often. If you have any doubts about using microdermabrasion systems on your own, it is better to contact a specialist. Experienced masters of the Moscow beauty salon “Veronika Herba” will select a course of procedures that is suitable for you, preserving youthful skin and a blooming appearance for many years.

Master class on microdermabrasion
Step-by-step instruction.
- You need to completely remove all makeup from your face. If necessary, you can pre-clean it with sugar or coffee scrub.
- Next, a nourishing cream is distributed over the skin to protect it from the harsh effects of the granular nozzle. Looking in the mirror, you need to select a certain area and treat it with a working device. Manipulations must be carried out very carefully, lingering on problem areas for no more than a few seconds. This targeted treatment will increase the effectiveness of the procedure.
Before treating the skin you need to apply a nourishing cream - Experts recommend making circular movements when working with the nozzle.
- At the end of manipulations with the device, a product with a calming effect is applied to the face.
After the session, redness may persist for some time, but it goes away fairly quickly. However, if after 2 hours the redness has not subsided, and flaking and dryness appear on the skin, most likely, the wrong attachment was used, and the top layer of the skin became inflamed.
Important ! In this situation, you can smear your face with a soothing cream, for example, Panthenol, and consult a specialist.
If your skin is inflamed, you can use a soothing cream
