We all want a healthy, radiant glow. When your skin feels dull or dry, professional exfoliating treatments can help. At Meridian Plastic Surgery in Meridian, Mississippi, Dr. Lee K. Thornton and Dr. Sana Bhatti help you find the perfect match for your skin.
We offer advanced skin rejuvenation options to restore your natural brightness. Two of the most popular choices are HydraFacial™ and DiamondGlow®. While they seem similar, they use different methods to refresh your face.
Let's look at how they work so you can choose the best option.
The main difference is how each device exfoliates your skin. HydraFacial uses a swirling liquid vacuum to gently wash away dead skin cells. DiamondGlow uses a real diamond-tipped wand to physically buff away rough texture.
Both treatments are safe, superficial options for minor texture issues and dryness. In a 2024 study of eight healthy volunteers, hydradermabrasion removed the outer skin layer, which returned to normal thickness in two weeks. This physical exfoliation triggers your skin to renew itself.
Because these treatments stimulate blood flow, you might experience mild redness right after your visit. This is a normal healing response and typically fades quickly.
At our Meridian office, we ensure your treatment is comfortable and tailored to your skin's sensitivity.
DiamondGlow improves dry skin by physically exfoliating the surface while infusing deep hydration. The diamond tip creates tiny, temporary openings in the skin barrier. This allows specialized hyaluronic acid serums to sink in deeply and lock in moisture.
This dual-action process provides an immediate, visible boost to your skin. In a 2023 study of 27 adults with dry skin, 88.9% of participants had increased skin hydration 15 minutes after treatment.
This makes the treatment an excellent choice a few days before a big event. It leaves your face looking plump, smooth, and radiant. We customize your DiamondGlow serums to target your specific concerns, from dryness to uneven tone.
The right choice depends on your specific skin concerns and goals.
Keep in mind that while one session provides a temporary glow, lasting results require a series of treatments. Our team will help you build a personalized plan to keep your skin looking its best.
