🌸 Quick answer
What is a Diamond Glow Facial? A Diamond Glow Facial is a non-invasive resurfacing treatment that combines three steps in one pass: a diamond-tipped handpiece polishes away dead skin, a vacuum extracts pore debris, and a customised serum is infused into freshly resurfaced skin. The result is brighter tone, smoother texture and a hydrated, glass-skin glow, usually with no downtime. It suits most skin types when the serum and intensity are tailored.
What is the Diamond Glow Facial?
The Diamond Glow Facial uses a diamond-tipped handpiece to gently polish the skin while a vacuum-infusion system lifts impurities and delivers a tailored serum — brightening, hydrating or anti-aging — into the resurfaced surface. Everything happens in one seamless, comfortable process.
It is a favourite for a quick glass-skin refresh before events or travel, and works well alongside Aqua Peel or skin boosters for deeper hydration.

How the facial works
-
Consultation and skin analysis
The doctor sets the exfoliation level and chooses your serum.
-
Diamond-tip resurfacing
The handpiece polishes away dead skin cells for a smoother surface.
-
Vacuum extraction
Debris is lifted from pores as the tip passes over the skin.
-
Serum infusion and calming care
A tailored serum is infused and a calming mask or care finishes the session. Session time is about 30–45 minutes.
Recovery and results timeline
Downtime is minimal. Slight redness or a warm sensation may occur but fades quickly, and skin looks polished and luminous right away. Use sunscreen, avoid heavy sun exposure and keep to gentle skincare for best results.

Diamond Glow Facial FAQ
How many Diamond Glow Facials will I need?
A single session often gives a visible glow. For texture or pigmentation, 3–6 sessions spaced 2–4 weeks apart work better, with maintenance every 4–6 weeks.
Does the Diamond Glow Facial hurt?
No. It is comfortable — most people feel only light polishing and gentle suction. There is no squeezing or harsh abrasion.
Is it safe for sensitive or darker skin?
Yes, when customised. Intensity and serum are adjusted for your skin, making it suitable for sensitive and melanin-rich skin in most cases.
How much does it cost in Seoul?
A basic Diamond Glow Facial is around ₩150,000–₩250,000, and premium versions with advanced serums or a face-and-neck combo are around ₩250,000–₩350,000 or more. International patients pay the same local price.
Is it good before an event or trip?
Very. With no downtime and an immediate glow, many people book it a day or two before an event or during a visit to Seoul.
How is it different from an Aqua Peel?
Both cleanse and hydrate. The Diamond Glow uses a diamond tip to physically resurface, while Aqua Peel is water-based. Your doctor can suggest which suits your skin.
