What is Diamond Hydro Microdermabrasion?
The word microdermabrasion combines micro (small), derma (skin) and abrasion (grinding). Put together, it describes a "small abrasion of the skin". But what exactly happens to the skin?
Skin renewal through gentle exfoliation
With the hydro microdermabrasion technique, the top layers of skin cells are mechanically removed by fine crystals and suctioned away with water. Dead skin cells are removed completely painlessly via the saline solution, and the slight vacuum of the handpiece also directly activates the lymphatic pathways, improving lymph flow.
Effects & benefits of hydro microdermabrasion
Activating the lymphatic pathways & skin renewal
During and after hydro microdermabrasion, the formation of new skin cells is stimulated. Dead skin cells are likewise removed using saline solution and the microcirculation of the cells is increased, which ultimately also promotes the restoration of an intact skin layer.
Active ingredients work more intensively
After hydro microdermabrasion, the active ingredients applied to the skin afterwards can work many times more intensively. With regular use, pores are also refined and the skin becomes smoother and firmer.
