Learning how to measure your Diamond Glow before and after results is crucial for keeping up with your regimen. Seeing your skin’s development helps you enjoy your results and sets the stage for more progress.
Diamond Glow is a powerful, non-invasive treatment that uses a diamond tip to slough off dead skin, promote lymphatic drainage, and reduce visible signs of aging. With a deep dose of its patented pro infusion serum, it sets skin up for future success by keeping it hydrated. It’s a reliable solution for people with acne-prone skin and those who need longer-lasting results.
Tracking your progress starts with targeting your current skin concerns and then cross-referencing them with this cosmetic procedure’s biggest strengths.
How to Put Together DiamondGlow Facial Before And After Photos
Healthy skin is a journey that benefits from an easily verifiable track record. No matter which skin issue you’re facing, these steps will help you assess your treatment results.
Step #1: Take Clear Photos Before Treatment
Your photos provide a visual measuring stick to analyze your progress after a DiamondGlow Facial. Get started by taking clear, well-lit photos of your entire face, with a few extra photos on problematic areas you need more help with.
Make sure to avoid heavy drop shadows beneath your chin, nose, or eyes. These heavy shadows make it difficult to measure your progress later since they obscure smaller details.
Step #2: Make Sure Your Photos Are Consistent
Not only do you need clear photos to track the progress of skin concerns, maintaining consistency in the angle and poses removes any ambiguity. If you make different expressions or have drastically different photos, it’ll be difficult to spot clear differences later.
Step #3: Take Several Photos After Your Treatment Session
Since the DiamondGlow Facial provides fast results, taking a few well-lit snapshots after your procedure is a good idea. Consider waiting an hour or two after your session since the dermabrasion treatment sometimes leaves mild, temporary redness.
If you have multiple treatment sessions, take a few photos after each one and make sure to date them.
Step #4: Take Photos Weekly To Track Your Progress
Since the DiamondGlow Facial helps your skin heal, take a new, well-lit photograph every week to track your skin’s progress. Follow your post-treatment regimen closely to maximize your results and encourage healthy, glowing skin.
Common post-treatment regimens for a DiamondGlow Facial are avoiding heavy exercise and protecting your skin with an SPF 30+ sunblock. Since the dermabrasion treatment leaves your skin more sensitive to sunburns or discoloration, regular sunscreen applications protect your progress and shows faster results.
How to Assess Your DiamondGlow Facial Photos For Progress 
Now that you know how to track your results, it’s time to learn how to assess them. Since the Diamond Glow treatment provides several key benefits, every patient has unique goals around their progress.
Step #1: Narrow Down the Goals Of Your Treatment
Are you trying to reduce scars left by acne breakouts or want to shrink your pores? Choose a clear goal to assess individual results and become more confident about your progress.
Step #2: Seek Out Specific Areas Of The Face To Measure Progress
Trying to analyze the entire face can be overwhelming, so start small. Start measuring progress with your most problematic areas, such as fine lines around your mouth or acne scars on your forehead.
Compare these parts of the face in your before photos with after photos to spot minor, yet significant differences. You may notice your acne scars have begun to fade or your fine lines aren’t as noticeable.
Step #3: Take Note of Areas That Still Need Improvement
Skin treatment solutions take time to show significant changes, so don’t feel disheartened if you’re not seeing much progress yet. These before and after photos are also helpful for spotting what isn’t changing much so you can adjust your routine.
Take notes to share with your skincare professional to get deeper insight into your skin type, persistent issues, and new suggestions. Whether you need another serum infusion or are a good candidate for other treatments like microneedling, more radiant skin is just around the corner.
Step #4: Look for Patients With Similar Skin Problems
Whether you want smoother skin or need to supplement your brightening serum with stronger results, other patients can provide another point of reference. Look online or talk to your skincare professional to look for patient photos with similar skin issues.
While nobody’s skin is the same, you may discover illuminating details in their photos that help you measure your progress. For example, cystic acne scars are known to be persistent and take a long time to fade. As such, viewing another patient’s slow-yet-steady results can be a great source of inspiration.
Frequently Asked Questions: Diamond Glow Before And After
If you still want to learn more about what to expect from your appearance after treatment, we’re here to help. We have a few frequently asked questions about this effective microdermabrasion treatment and how it can help you.
What Should You Not Do After A DiamondGlow Treatment?
We recommend avoiding certain activities for the next twenty-four hours, such as visiting a sauna or doing heavy exercise. These activities can cause your gently exfoliated skin to become flushed.
You should also avoid physical or chemical exfoliation for a few days after treatment to avoid irritation.
Is DiamondGlow Painful?
Since DiamondGlow is a gentle and non-invasive treatment, it’s not painful and is well suited to different dry or oily skin types. Many patients describe the sensations as relaxing or soothing.
Is DiamondGlow facial the same as HydraFacial?
When comparing Diamond Glow vs Hydrafacial, it’s important to note that each treatment targets different skincare goals. Diamond Glow not only cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates — it also helps flush out toxins and stimulate blood flow for a more revitalized complexion. In contrast, the Hydrafacial is a gentler, more relaxing treatment primarily aimed at cosmetic enhancement rather than clinical results.
Is DiamondGlow Better Than Microneedling?
Neither solution is better or worse: they’re different depending on the severity and duration of your skin issues. DiamonfdGlow is a powerful and holistic process that targets a variety of stubborn mild to moderate skin issues.
Microneedling can be a more effective solution for deeper skin pigmentation and scarring.
