Every modern woman today strives for self-improvement. First of all it concerns a skin, beauty of the face, care of itself. A well-groomed look can tell a lot about a woman. Therefore, women are so carefully approaching the choice of procedures and means to care for themselves.
The desire for beauty is a natural desire of a woman to be attractive, to like others. Its roots go deep into antiquity. Previously, women took enormous risks to take care of themselves: they used various potent and even toxic substances, suffered painful and hourly procedures, risked their lives in trying to get a scarce remedy.
Today, such victims are not required of a woman. Numerous clinics offer a wide range of cosmetology and medical procedures aimed at restoring, rejuvenating the skin, giving it a natural shine, radiance, freshness.
The diamond face cleansing proved to be very effective, which allows to achieve the desired effect in the shortest possible time. The procedure is becoming increasingly popular due to its comfort, painlessness, high efficiency.
What does "diamond face cleansing" mean and what is its essence? The top layer of the skin contains pores into which dust, various particles enter. In addition to all the skin, various secrets of the sebaceous glands are synthesized, as well as the dead cells accumulate. All this pollutes the pores, causes inflammation in the skin. There is a rash, numerous pimples. Become more visible age changes in the skin.
Gradually, the skin loses its elasticity. This is due to a decrease in the amount of collagen and elastin in the cells. To solve these problems will help diamond face cleansing.
This procedure is a method of cleaning the skin by mechanical means. During this procedure, all dirt, the surface layer of the epidermis, is removed. Purified and narrowed pores, various effects can be easily eliminated. During the procedure, special nozzles and diamond spraying are used.
Its essence lies in the fact that the mechanical cleaning of the skin is done with a special disc and a small spray on its surface.
Along with the contaminants, dead or transformed cells are removed, which have already adapted to functioning in an altered state. It is this property of cells that makes it necessary to carry out such procedures. Epidermis periodically need to be changed to a new one. As a result of this procedure, the skin acquires a fresh look, becomes younger.
Indications for the procedure

However, it should be borne in mind that only one procedure of diamond cleaning will not be enough to completely eliminate the signs of aging. The procedure renders rather "emergency help", cosmetic effect. For a serious impact and a significant rejuvenation of the entire skin, a complex effect must be applied, as well as a full course of diamond cleaning.
