If you have scrolled through skincare content lately, chances are you have seen the term Diamond Glow Facial pop up more than once. It is one of those treatments that sounds a little glamorous and a little mysterious at the same time. So what is actually happening during a Diamond Glow appointment, and does it live up to the hype?
At Shorrbeauty in Costa Mesa, Diamond Glow has become one of our most requested facials, and for good reason. It combines several skin benefits into a single session, which makes it a favorite for clients who want visible results without committing to something more intensive. Here is what actually happens during the treatment and why it has earned its spot as a go to option.
Updated this July 2026 with what our Costa Mesa and Newport Beach clients love most about this treatment.
What Happens During a Diamond Glow Facial?
Diamond Glow is a medical grade facial that uses a specialized machine to exfoliate, extract, and infuse the skin in one continuous process. Unlike a traditional facial where these steps might happen separately using different tools, Diamond Glow combines them, which makes the treatment feel efficient while still delivering a thorough result.
The process typically includes gentle exfoliation to remove dead skin cells, targeted extractions to clear congested pores, and an infusion of a custom serum chosen based on your specific skin type and concerns. Many sessions also include lymphatic drainage, which helps reduce puffiness and supports a healthier overall appearance.
How Is Diamond Glow Different From a Regular Facial?
A standard facial often focuses on cleansing, steaming, and a mask, which feels relaxing but may not always target deeper skin concerns. Diamond Glow takes things further by using suction based exfoliation paired with serum infusion, delivering the product deeper into the skin rather than leaving it sitting on the surface.
This is part of why many clients notice a more immediate glow after a single Diamond Glow session compared to a traditional facial, along with smoother texture and clearer looking pores.
What Skin Concerns Does Diamond Glow Address?
Diamond Glow is fairly versatile, which is part of its appeal. Clients often turn to it for:
- Dull, uneven texture
- Clogged or congested pores
- Dehydrated skin in need of a hydration boost
- General tone and clarity concerns
- Preparing skin for a special event or occasion
Because the serum used during infusion can be customized, the treatment can be adjusted whether your skin needs more hydration, brightening, or a calming approach for sensitivity.
How Long Does the Glow Last After Treatment?
Most clients notice a visible glow immediately following their appointment, with continued improvement in texture and tone over the following days. Since Diamond Glow does not typically involve significant downtime, many people schedule it right before an event, vacation, or simply as a refresh when their skin needs some attention.
For longer term results, scheduling Diamond Glow as a regular part of your skincare routine, roughly every four to six weeks, tends to keep skin looking consistently refreshed rather than treating it as a one time boost.
Is Diamond Glow Facial Right for Sensitive Skin?
Diamond Glow is generally well tolerated across a range of skin types, including more sensitive skin, since the exfoliation level and serum can be adjusted during your consultation. If you have specific sensitivities or concerns, letting your provider know beforehand allows them to tailor the treatment so it feels comfortable while still delivering results.
Why This Facial Has Become a Costa Mesa Favorite
Between the sun, the salt air, and the pace of life here in Orange County, skin can lose its glow faster than people expect. Diamond Glow has become a go to option for Costa Mesa and Newport Beach clients who want a treatment that fits into a busy schedule but still delivers a noticeable difference, whether that is before a weekend event or simply as regular skin maintenance.
