Microdermabrasion takes less than an hour to perform and you can return to work immediately. The Diamond Peel uses a hollow metal wand or tube with diamond crystals on the end. When a vacuum is applied through the tube, the skin is drawn up against the diamond surface and is gently abraded as the wand is moved across the skin’s surface. Another version of microdermabrasion, the Derma Peel®, also uses a vacuum system to lightly abrade the skin by moving microscopic abrasive crystals across the skin’s surface. These procedures are pain free and gently remove and exfoliate the outer layer of skin. They are usually repeated every two weeks for an initial period of three months. With each successive exfoliation, younger skin moves to the surface, often yielding significant texture and color changes.
