How DiamondGlow Works

DiamondGlow’s three-step approach exfoliates, extracts, and infuses the skin with customized topical serums in a single, indulgent session. SkinMedica’s Pro-Infusion serums are hand-selected to address your unique skin concerns and goals. It differs from similar treatments like the HydraFacial, silk peel, and dermabrasion because it takes skin health to another level with its trifecta approach. This isn’t simply microdermabrasion or a facial. It’s all of your favorite and most effective treatments performed in succession for the ultimate results.

DiamondGlow offers a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment so there’s no downtime. Some call it a facial on steroids, but there’s so much more to achieving this red carpet glow than a facial. Exfoliation preps your skin for treatment by removing debris, sebum, and other items that create an unwanted, dulling barrier on the skin’s surface. Next, DiamondGlow extracts debris, makeup, and more from clogged pores. This takes cleansing to the next level, allowing pores to shrink instantly in size and prepare them for a personalized topical treatment. Finally, SkinMedica products are applied and can penetrate deeper into the skin and pores thanks to the exfoliation and extraction steps.

With microdermabrasion, you only get exfoliation. With a facial, you only get a topical treatment—which oftentimes doesn’t work as well as it could because the products can’t get past skin barriers or clogged pores. And, of course, an extraction session strictly extracts debris from pores. This combo trio combines everything you need for stunning, glowing, healthy skin.
