Learn how DiamondGlow delivers brighter, clearer skin, what makes it different from traditional treatments, and whether it is the right fit for your skin.

Key Takeaway

DiamondGlow is a customizable, non-invasive skin resurfacing procedure that exfoliates dead skin cells, clears congested pores, and infuses pro-infusion serums, delivering clearer, brighter, and more hydrated skin for a wide variety of skin types and concerns.

How the DiamondGlow Treatment Works

DiamondGlow uses a smooth diamond-tipped wand to remove the outermost layer of skin while simultaneously extracting debris and infusing the skin with targeted SkinMedica® Pro-Infusion Serums.

Step-by-step breakdown:

  1. Exfoliate: The dermabrasion device uses crushed diamond tips of varying grit levels to gently exfoliate dead skin cells and remove damaged skin cells from the surface.
  2. Extract with vacuum suction: It deeply cleanses clogged pores and congested skin while supporting lymphatic drainage and removal of toxins.
  3. Infuse active serums: While the skin is most receptive, SkinMedica® Pro-Infusion Serums containing ingredients like hyaluronic acid are delivered into the freshly exfoliated layer of skin to hydrate and target specific skin concerns.

This non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment addresses a variety of skin concerns in a single appointment and is completely customizable based on your skin type and skincare concerns.

What to Expect After Treatment

Results are often visible after just one treatment. Skin looks clearer, brighter, and more hydrated due to the removal of dead skin and the infusion of condition-specific serums.

Temporary redness or tightness may occur, especially in areas of sensitive skin. Mild side effects like a scratchy feeling are common, but severe skin irritation is rare. Always consult your aesthetic provider or healthcare provider if you have concerns or underlying skin issues.

For best results, we often recommend a personalized treatment plan with sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, depending on your skin type and skincare concerns.

Is DiamondGlow Right For You?

This customizable facial is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin, oily skin, dry skin, and acne-prone skin. It is especially effective for patients who want to:

  • Brighten dull skin and achieve a radiant skin glow
  • Smooth uneven skin texture or dry patches
  • Address mild to moderate acne and clogged pores
  • Fade dark spots and skin discoloration
  • Hydrate dry or dehydrated skin for dewy skin
  • Soften the look of fine lines and improve skin quality

There is minimal to no downtime. Most patients experience only mild redness, tightness, or a scratchy sensation, which typically resolves within a few hours. 

In rare cases, allergic reactions or severe skin irritation may occur, especially in individuals with underlying medical conditions.

DiamondGlow vs Microdermabrasion

When comparing DiamondGlow vs microdermabrasion, the key difference is how advanced and comprehensive the DiamondGlow technology is.

  • Exfoliation method: Microdermabrasion uses loose crystals or a rough surface to abrade dead skin. DiamondGlow uses smooth diamond tips that are gentler and more controlled.
  • Depth of treatment: DiamondGlow is a three-in-one skin resurfacing procedure that exfoliates, extracts, and infuses cosmetic serums. Microdermabrasion is a single-step dermabrasion treatment.
  • Results: DiamondGlow provides visibly clearer skin, smaller visible pores, and a more even skin tone because it includes targeted pro-infusion serums during the procedure.

If your skincare regimen includes regular facial treatments and you want a more effective skin treatment for glowing skin, DiamondGlow delivers brighter skin and smoother results.

FAQs About DiamondGlow

How long does a DiamondGlow facial last?

You will notice an immediate glow after your first DiamondGlow facial, with smoother, brighter skin that can last several days. However, the real benefits develop over time. With consistent treatments, typically every 4 to 6 weeks, DiamondGlow helps improve skin tone, texture, hydration, and clarity for results that continue to improve and last longer.

Is a DiamondGlow facial better than a hydrafacial?

DiamondGlow and HydraFacial are both advanced skin treatments, but they serve different purposes. DiamondGlow uses a diamond-tipped wand for deeper physical exfoliation and simultaneously infuses SkinMedica® serums, making it ideal for addressing concerns like dullness, rough texture, or clogged pores. HydraFacial focuses more on gentle cleansing, hydration, and pore extraction using a water-based system. It is an excellent choice for sensitive skin or those seeking a refreshing, glow-boosting treatment with no irritation.
