Diamond Peel in Makati: Price, What Changes After One Session, and Aftercare
A diamond peel is not a peel in the chemical sense. A wand with a diamond-coated tip buffs away the top layer of dead skin while gentle suction lifts the debris away. No acid, no heat and no peeling afterwards.
Texture changes first. Skin feels smoother the same day and takes product better for a week or two after, which is why a diamond peel is often the step before a brightening or hydrating treatment rather than the whole plan.
On Filipino skin it has one real advantage over a chemical peel: less risk of the dark marks that follow irritation. That is the part that matters most here.
What a session is like
The consultation checks your skin and what you use at home.
Cleanse, the diamond tip passes over the face, then a hydrating or brightening finish and sunscreen. It feels like a light scratch and a gentle pull.
Faint pinkness for an hour at most. Leave retinol and exfoliating acids for two days, and protect your skin from the sun for longer than that.
When this is the wrong treatment
Active, inflamed breakouts
Buffing over angry acne spreads it. We treat the breakouts first.
Melasma
A diamond peel will not clear it. Melasma has its own protocol.
Sunburn, a flare of rosacea, or recent isotretinoin
Irritated or medicated skin waits. With isotretinoin, wait until your doctor clears you.
