Diamond Glow®

---

Diamond Glow is ideal for individuals of all skin types who want to enhance their skin health and address specific skin issues like dryness, aging, or acne.

While Diamond Glow is safe and effective for most people, some individuals may not be ideal candidates due to factors that could increase risks or impact results. Medical clearance may be required for certain conditions. Please consult with your healthcare provider if you are unsure. Precautions to consider:

• Patients who are undergoing treatment for skin cancer - consult with your healthcare provider.
• Accutane - must wait at least 6 months unless authorized by your healthcare provider.
• Compromised skin (dermatitis, sunburn, open wounds or sores, infection, severe rosacea or acne) in the treatment area.

You can usually see visible skin appearance and texture improvements immediately after a facial treatment, with results improving in the next few days.

They can last anywhere from a few weeks to a month. Regular sessions are recommended to maintain these benefits. Typically, every 4-6 weeks is recommended for maintenance, however it may be performed as frequently as every 2 weeks to address specific concerns. 

There is typically no downtime following a Diamond Glow. Following the treatment, some individuals may experience slight redness or sensitivity, which usually disappears within a few minutes or up to a few days.

During a Diamond Glow, a handheld device with a diamond-tipped wand is used to manually exfoliate and remove dead skin cells, while simultaneously applying a suction mechanism to extract impurities. At the same time, the skin is also infused with medical grade Skin Medica serums when pores are open and most receptive. Built with innovative 3X1 technology, this allows all three steps to be performed at the same time.

• Avoid direct sun exposure, including tanning beds, for at least 24 hours prior to treatment. Use SPF 30+ if sun exposure is unavoidable.
• Avoid skin irritants (products containing tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide or acne medications, vitamin C if strong or acidic, hydroquinone, AHAs/BHAs, astringents, depilatories, waxing, shaving, etc.) or any other exfoliating products in the treatment area for at least 3 days prior to treatment.
• Avoid strong blood thinners at least 3 days before your treatment as these may increase the risk of mild petechiae (little red spots) or slight bruising. Consult with your healthcare provider before discontinuing.
• Avoid facial injections or fillers, lasers, and other facial treatments for 1-2 weeks before receiving a Diamond Glow.

• Most people can return to their normal activities immediately,  however, strenuous exercise, sweating, excessive heat, swimming, and sauna use should be limited for at least 24 hours.
• Avoid direct sun exposure, including tanning beds, for at least 48 hours following treatment. If sun exposure cannot be avoided, apply a broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) SPF 30+ to treatment area.
• Avoid skin irritants (products containing tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide or acne medications, vitamin C if strong or acidic, hydroquinone, AHAs, BHAs, astringents, depilatories, waxing, etc.) or any other exfoliating products in the treatment area for at least 24-72 hours.
• Avoid putting on makeup immediately after.
