Effect of cavitation peeling and diamond microtermabrasion on selected skin parameters

Summary/Abstract: Background: Peeling is a method of exfoliation. This type of treatment is carried out to completely or partially remove layers of the epidermis. With this treatment, it is possible to get rid of cosmetic defects or superficial lesions. The most common indications for performing peeling include, among others, the renewal of aging skin, the alleviation of pigmentary changes, and the leveling of acne scars. Aim of the study: To evaluate the influence of cavitation peeling and diamond microdermabrasion on skin parameters such as skin structure, sebum level, dead skin level, size of sebaceous gland leaks, and degree of skin hydration. Material and methods: A group of 10 women between the ages of 21 and 24 participated in this research. They underwent a treatment of cavitation peeling and diamond microdermabrasion. The skin analyzer, Beauty of Science’s Nati Analizer, was used to evaluate particular skin parameters. Results: The skin structure after both treatments is correct and the results have changed slightly. The skin of patients before the treatments was characterized by a tendency toward greasiness. After the treatments, the skin adopts the parameters of dry skin. In the case of hydration measurements for the T and U zones after the treatments, the values increase, but are still incorrect. After the cavitation peeling, the epidermis peels off in small amounts, whereas microdermabrasion provokes the skin to excessive exfoliation. The results obtained indicate that both treatments favorably reduce the width of the sebaceous glands. Conclusions: Cavitation peeling and diamond microdermabrasion improve the functioning of oily and mixed skin. The results obtained indicate stimulation and provocation of the skin to an intensified level of reconstruction of the epidermis and dermis. Cavitation peeling adeptly cleanses the skin of its cover of older epidermis while microdermabrasion intensifies the skin regeneration processes.
