Diamond Peel at Dermstrata

I have acne scars that I got from pricking them when I was in my early twenties. I had a late acne breakout. I never broke out when I was a teen. But I guess I had a serious hormonal change in my early twenties that I had acne break out, leg hair thickening, and breast cyst all within a period of 2 years.

I was never really conscious of my acne scars except when I see them in the mirror. I had wished for a way to remove them. Until I heard from a colleague that one of our colleagues has a better skin texture because of a diamond peel. Since then it would cross my mind that maybe it would be the best solution for me (I didn't like chemical peeling; it scares me.)

I never really thought of getting a diamond peel until I got promoted and received a raise because I knew it entails money. So, I searched around for a good, effective, yet affordable diamond peel. I learned that there are spas that offer diamond peeling for as low as 500, but I have read also that a lot of these actually do not use diamond crystals but regular crystals. And then I came across a blog about Dermstrata diamond peeling. I read some more and finally decided I'm going for Dermstrata diamond peeling.

Going for My Diamond Peel Treatment

I went to Dermstrata SM Marilao branch and had my first session on July 23. I learned from the blogs that Dermstrata offers discount if you avail 3, 5, or 7 sessions at a time.  Initially wanted to avail only 3 sessions just to try it out so I paid 2,700 for the 3 sessions. Each session is for 1,200, discounted to 900/session if you avail 3 at once. (Please check with the clinic for the promo and price.)

The receptionist warned me though that diamond peeling doesn't really remove deep acne scars, but it can only make it shallow. I appreciated her honesty.

Before my first session started, April, the facialist, asked me if I would like to avail of their promo of 7 sessions for 5950. That makes 850/session. At fist, I didn't like that it was the first thing she told me. I was thinking hmp, another sales offer. So I told her, okay, I'll think about it. But then I knew beforehand that to see the most results, you need around 12-14 sessions. So, since I like the service she gave me, I decided to avail the 7 sessions.

I am glad that it was April who was my facialist, she was really good. I highly recommend her. I told her I will look for her on my next session.

I will share my diamond peeling sessions on my next articles in this blog.
