The advantage of diamond dermabrasion over microdermabrasion machines is that there is no risk of microdermabrasion crystals getting stuck inside skin pores, on hair and clothing.
The appeal of diamond dermabrasion over crystal microdermabrasion lies mainly with treatment providers. A few advantages of diamond dermabrasion include:
People who come into contact with aluminium oxide crystals regularly over prolonged periods, sometimes complain of symptoms such as itchy eyes, sore throats, headaches and respiratory problems.
Diamond dermabrasion systems do not use crystals and the machines are cheaper to maintain because they don’t rely on a continuous supply of microdermabrasion crystals. Diamond dermabrasion tips are reusable and need only be sterilised between uses which is much more cost effective.
Because diamond dermabrasion machines have no need for crystal cartridges or an air pump to deliver the crystals to the skin the machines are less bulky and smaller. This makes them easier to store, also enabling mobile therapists to deliver treatments at their client’s home.
