      Hi, Shan! Oh that sucks to hear. The Spa’s charges are all-inclusive, so that’s a total of Php 2,800 for one session. 🙂

      Hi, Jhabd! The one in SKIN (at The Spa in Shangri-La Mall) is about Php 1,500 I think. I don’t remember anymore. But if you’re looking for a more affordable alternative, you can check out my feature on SCS: https://gretasjunkyard.com/where-to-get-a-diamond-peel-scs-skin-care-solutions/

      Yes, it helps remove blackheads and whiteheads especially if you get the treatment regularly! 🙂

    Hi Ms. Gretchen,
    I’d like to ask. is it not bad for the skin to always do the peeling, say monthly? D po kaya the outer layer of the skin would become so thin and it will be more sensitive sa araw, dirt. Im always fascinated to try peelings but that is one of my fear. Please enlighten me.

    thanks

      Oh, I think it doesn’t matter naman what your skin type is. Diamond peel is basically like exfoliating, to get rid of the dead skin cells that are clogging your pores. When you clear up the dead skin cells, your skin absorbs the skincare products you apply much better—kaya it helps clear up the skin.

      It’s usually recommended to get the procedure once a month. Too much of it might dry up or irritate your skin. 🙂

      Hi, Emir! That’s actually my first time to read a negative review about the diamond peel. The women in my family get it frequently, and they’ve never encountered bad reactions either. Maybe it just so happened that she really had a bad breakout right after the peel, and it wasn’t the peel that caused it but something else? I dunno. It’s hard to assume. But like I always say, what works for me may not always work on others and what works on others may not always work for me. Sometimes, you really have to try and experiment to know which products and procedures work best on your skin. It also helps to consult with a dermatologist before trying anything on your skin. 🙂

      My first time to get a diamond peel, I waited a month before I got my next one. And it was always like that. It was my dermatologist who recommended it. 🙂 I think after your first two sessions, it’s okay to maintain it at just once a month. Medyo mahal rin kasi yata if twice a month magpa-diamond peel. I wouldn’t spend that much. 🙂

      April 22, 2015 @ 7:15 pm

      Hi, Emir! It will depend on the situation of your skin. Kasi when I got a facial before, I had a couple of pimples and the assistant didn’t want to perform the diamond peel because it might aggravate the pimples. (She had to prick and inject kasi.) So I had to wait one week before I got a diamond peel. 🙂 But if your skin is fine and you think it won’t need any pricking/injecting, safe to get a diamond peel the same day. I’ve experienced getting a diamond peel, facial, and mask all in one day from The Spa once because my skin that time wasn’t so bad. So it really depends on your skin’s situation when you get the facial.

      Hi, Nica! If your skin isn’t sensitive, it should be fine. 🙂 Diamond Peel in SCS Solutions is Php 500. Like anything else, too much of something is bad so if you want to get a diamond peel frequently, get one every 2 weeks or once a month.

      Hi! With me, I get my facial done first and then diamond peel. But this only depends on the severity. If I came from a really bad break out, my derma always recommends that I rest my face for two weeks before getting a diamond peel. But if it’s just the usual blackheads/whiteheads, it’s okay to get a diamond peel right after. 🙂 I would recommend a soap based on your skin type. But gentle cleansers like Cetaphil or Physiogel work great on any skin type and are really mild. I’ve never read or heard bad reviews about them.

    hi Gretch! just wondering, is diamond peel similar to microdermabrasion? I am just confused which treatment to take since I had my warts removal session just last week, any piece of advise?

    thanks,
    josie

      I think it’s similar, but not so sure lang what exactly the differences are. Best to ask a derma pa rin, to be sure. 🙂

      Hello! Diamond peel only exfoliates, but it doesn’t necessarily remove pimples. It just helps your skin absorb products better. 🙂 To prevent acne, better to take a holistic approach and improve your skincare routine + get a facial or a diamond treatment regularly.

          No naman. 🙂 Your skin might be just a little bit more sensitive than usual, but that shouldn’t last for more than 8-12 hours.

      Hi! Yes, it’s perfectly fine to undergo facial treatments at your age. 🙂 I suggest to let your skin breathe first and stop applying makeup. Instead, focus on skincare and try to see what products work best for you. It’s best to consult with a dermatologist regarding this. Facials will definitely help for sure. 🙂

    Hello and hi Maam. Maam may nabasa aq sa taas na hindi totally mawawala ang mga pores sa pisngi kahit magpa diamond peel maybe make your skin enlighten and smoother. Pero ang problema kc un mga pores kaya gusto q mag undergo ng diamond peel, so kung hindi ito ang process para matanggal ang mga pores. Mayroon po ba kayo iba recommend na procedure para matanggal ang mga pores, maliban sa surgeon it cause very expensive and cannot be afford. Thank you so much Maam

    Hi ms Gretchen
    Gusto ko rin po i try ang diamond peel. Pero for almost 2 mnths, im applying maxipeel zero (the one that has no peeling and redness effects.)
    The last time i used it was just yesterday tapos ngaun lng hindi ako gumamit kasi im planning to have diamond peel tomorrow. Is it safe kaya for the face?hindi kaya mgkakaroon ng chemical reactions?

      I used to get it done with pimples, but I know sometimes, the derma recommends to wait until the pimples disappear first before doing the procedure. Maybe it’s best to ask your derma muna. 🙂
