DiamondGlow might be the procedure you’ve been considering if you’re searching for a non-invasive, safe, and efficient skin rejuvenation alternative. DiamondGlow is a complete resurfacing treatment that goes beyond a facial. In a single, easy 30-minute session, it exfoliates, extracts, and infuses premium serums. It is intended to enhance skin clarity, tone, and texture without causing any downtime.
A DiamondGlow treatment can make a big difference whether you’re battling clogged pores, dull skin, acne, or aging symptoms. Magnolia Medical Aesthetics in Riverside, California, offers DiamondGlow to enable patients to experience noticeable skin renewal with the least disruption to their routine.
Here’s everything you need to know about your first appointment—including what to expect before, during, and after.
What Is DiamondGlow and How Does It Work?
DiamondGlow is an advanced skin-resurfacing facial that works in three essential steps: exfoliation, extraction, and serum infusion. This treatment uses a unique diamond-tip wand that physically exfoliates the top layer of skin while simultaneously suctioning impurities from your pores and infusing SkinMedica® serums into freshly cleansed skin.
Unlike traditional facials that only work on the surface, DiamondGlow addresses your skin’s deeper layers for more effective, lasting results. The treatment is completely customizable depending on your skin type and concerns, making it suitable for a wide range of individuals seeking non-invasive skin rejuvenation.
How DiamondGlow Is Different From Other Facials
Most facials stop at surface-level cleansing. DiamondGlow is different because:
- It uses real crushed diamond tips to exfoliate
- It offers deep pore vacuuming to remove buildup.
- It allows active ingredients to penetrate when your skin is most receptive.
This makes it an excellent choice for people seeking a deep cleansing facial treatment that improves long-term skin health.
What Happens During Your First DiamondGlow Session?
Step 1: Consultation
Your treatment starts with a brief consultation with a licensed medical aesthetic provider at Magnolia Medical Aesthetics. We’ll review your medical history, examine your skin, and discuss your skin goals. This helps us decide which SkinMedica® serum will best support your needs—whether it’s for brightening, clarifying, hydrating, or anti-aging.
Step 2: Exfoliation with Diamond Tip Wand
The provider begins by gently gliding the diamond-tip wand across your face. This tip buffs away dull, dry, or damaged skin on the surface. Exfoliation is the first and crucial step of the DiamondGlow process, as it removes dead skin cells and triggers healthy cell renewal.
This process is non-invasive and generally comfortable—many patients describe it as a gentle polishing sensation.
Step 3: Extraction with Vacuum Suction
Next, a patented suction mechanism removes dirt, debris, oil, and blackheads from your pores. This step primarily benefits those seeking a facial for acne and dull skin. The vacuum power also stimulates lymphatic drainage and improves circulation.
Because the vacuum and exfoliation happen simultaneously, your skin gets a deeper cleanse than a manual facial.
Step 4: Serum Infusion
Once your skin is exfoliated and clean, its pores are open and absorbent. That’s when we infuse customized SkinMedica serums directly into your skin. These professional-grade formulas are free of fragrances, parabens, and sulfates, which reduces the risk of irritation or allergic reactions.
The infusion step addresses individual concerns like dryness, pigmentation, or redness.
Who Should Consider DiamondGlow?
DiamondGlow is safe for most skin types and appropriate for teens and adults. Common skin concerns that respond well to this treatment include:
- Acne or acne-prone skin
- Uneven skin tone or texture
- Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
- Dry or dull skin
- Fine lines and mild wrinkles
- Clogged pores or bumpy skin
Whether you’re in your 20s fighting breakouts or your 40s working on tone and texture, DiamondGlow can be part of a regular skincare routine.
If you’ve been looking for a facial for acne and dull skin that delivers more than a temporary glow, this treatment could be a strong fit.
Common Questions About DiamondGlow in Riverside, CA
Is DiamondGlow painful?
Not at all. Most patients say it feels like a light sanding or mild vacuum suction. The treatment is not abrasive or uncomfortable and is often described as relaxing.
How long does the treatment take?
The entire process takes around 30 minutes. That makes it an excellent option if you want visible results on your lunch break or before an event.
What results can I expect after my first visit?
After one session, you’ll likely notice:
- Brighter, more radiant skin
- Smoother texture
- Minimized pores
- Less congestion in oily areas
Over the next 6 to 12 weeks, continued improvement may include reduced dark spots, decreased breakouts, and a more even skin tone.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects are rare and mild. You may experience slight redness or tightness for a few hours post-treatment. Contact our team immediately if you experience swelling, itching, or more severe irritation. These reactions are uncommon but should be addressed by a provider.
How Often Should You Schedule DiamondGlow?
For most people, results are noticeable after just one session. However, we often recommend 3–6 treatments spaced a few weeks apart for long-term improvement and maintenance.
Your provider will give personalized recommendations based on your skin condition and goals.
For example:
- Acne-prone skin: You may benefit from more frequent sessions early on
- Dry or aging skin: Monthly maintenance may be ideal to maintain hydration and elasticity
- Hyperpigmentation: A series of sessions can help fade uneven tone gradually
Our team at Magnolia Medical Aesthetics can build a custom treatment schedule based on your skin’s response.
