HydroDiamond FacialAdvanced ExfoliationDeep Hydration

Advanced diamond-tip exfoliation meets deep hydration for instantly radiant, refreshed skin.

Treatment Overview

What is a HydroDiamond Facial?

The HydroDiamond Facial is a next-generation, non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that combines diamond-tip microdermabrasion with hydrodermabrasion, a fluid-based form of exfoliation. Unlike traditional dry microdermabrasion, this treatment uses specialized serums ahead of and during exfoliation, allowing active ingredients more time to soften the skin for deeper penetration and better absorption.

The result is smoother, brighter, more hydrated skin with no downtime. The treatment can be customized with hydrating, brightening, or anti-aging serums, making it suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin.

Your Experience

How It Works

Five customized steps exfoliate, clear, replenish, and protect your skin.

01

Cleanse & Prep

Double cleansing removes surface impurities and oils, and a tailored serum is applied to begin softening the skin.

02

Diamond-Tip Hydrodermabrasion

A diamond-tipped handpiece exfoliates dead skin cells while a vacuum function extracts debris from the pores, following the skin's natural contours.

03

Extractions

Gentle vacuum-assisted extraction clears congestion, blackheads, and excess sebum from the pores.

04

Serum Infusion & Oxygen Application

Customized hydrating, brightening, or anti-aging serums are infused into the skin and may be boosted with oxygen application to enhance absorption and stimulate collagen production.

05

Cooling & Protection

A calming, cooling step, often with cryo-gel, soothes the skin, evens tone, and locks in moisture, followed by a protective moisturizer and SPF.

FAQ

HydroDiamond Questions Answered

A HydroDiamond Facial is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that combines diamond-tip microdermabrasion with hydrodermabrasion.
