What is a DiamondGlow™ Facial?
DiamondGlow™ (formerly known as Dermalinfusion® or SilkPeel®) is a non-invasive, 3-in-1 skin resurfacing treatment that exfoliates, extracts, and infuses the skin with SkinMedica® Pro-Infusion serums.
Prior to your treatment, your provider at Wilmington Plastic Surgery and Skin Care MedSpa will evaluate your skin type to tailor your DiamondGlow facial and determine which serum best suits your needs. The advanced treatment can treat acne, target dryness with deep hydration, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and sun damage.
We can provide the right medical-grade serum products to elevate your at-home regimen and optimize the results from your DiamondGlow treatment.

HOW DOES DiamondGlow™ WORK?
Using a unique, 3-in-1, medical-grade skin resurfacing tool, the DiamondGlow™ handheld device exfoliates, extracts, and infuses the skin with serum. After cleansing and prepping the skin, the device gently removes dead skin cells and dirt using a diamond tip with varying degrees of abrasion.
The device has a suction feature that will then remove any exfoliated debris while extracting the pores for a deeper clean. Lastly, the device infuses the skin with a customized SkinMedica serum for direct penetration and optimal absorption, leaving your skin rejuvenated and squeaky clean.
