Shea Aesthetic Clinic has a reputation for offering only the best and most excellent in skincare treatments in Oak Ridge. With over 75 years of combined experience in the world of aesthetic medicine, our team loves helping patients feel refreshed, confident, and in love with their natural beauty!
DiamondGlow is a medical facial that can reach deeper into the skin to address texture, blemishes, and bacteria. It’s non-invasive and requires no downtime, making it a popular choice for patients looking for a “reset”—or to help them get their skin camera ready before an important event!
We’ll start with a consultation to ensure DiamondGlow will help you achieve safe and effective results. We’ll listen to your concerns, examine your skin, and create a custom treatment plan to address your unique needs.
Using a diamond-tipped wand, this facial gently removes dead skin while simultaneously extracting impurities and infusing the skin with nourishing SkinMedica® products. In many cases, we can treat you immediately after your consultation!
You won’t need to wait around for results after your DiamondGlow session! You’ll see renewed skin immediately after your treatment. Though every patient is different, we commonly recommend monthly DiamondGlow sessions to best maintain your glow.
The first step of a DiamondGlow facial in Oak Ridge is an in-depth skin exfoliation. We’ll gently remove dead skin cells and surface level blemishes from your skin using the DiamondGlow applicator.
At the same time, we’ll cleanse your skin of contaminants, opening up your pores in the process. This prepares them for the rest of the DiamondGlow process and helps deliver the best results from treatment.
After your skin is exfoliated and cleaned, DiamondGlow truly shines thanks to the precisely cut diamond-tipped extractor. With this tool, your aesthetician will methodically extract deep-seated blackheads and contaminants in your skin.
During extraction, we can remove blackheads and other substances that can cause acne, discoloration, and skin damage. With regular treatments, we’ll even be able to prevent minor skin issues from growing into more noticeable problems.
At the same time as your extraction, our team will also infuse your skin with a special hydrating serum. This serum will enter into your refreshed pores and supply your skin with healing nutrients, hydrating fluids, and other targeted substances to combat your skin concerns.
As the serum takes effect, you’ll start to see your skin continue to improve in the days after your session. Each infusion promotes collagen and elastin production in your skin. These proteins are responsible for your skin’s structure and firmness. With more of these proteins, you’ll see tighter skin, a smoother surface, and a reduced appearance of your wrinkles and lines.
Both DiamondGlow and Hydrafacial are advanced treatments designed to improve skin texture, tone, and overall health, but they each have unique benefits.
Ultimately, neither treatment is objectively “better”; the right choice depends on your unique skin needs and goals. During your consultation, we can help determine which treatment is best suited to give you the results you’re looking for!
Both DiamondGlow and microneedling are both highly effective treatments, but they work differently and target different skin concerns. Which is “better” depends on your specific skin goals.
DiamondGlow offers immediate results with no downtime, making it ideal for a quick refresh or regular maintenance.
Microneedling is a more intensive treatment compared to DiamondGlow and is particularly effective for deeper concerns like scarring, wrinkles, and more significant texture issues. Microneedling requires some recovery time as the skin heals and regenerates, but the results are long-lasting and more profound.
Our team can help you determine which treatment aligns with your needs and goals during a personalized consultation!
Over time, as your skin changes due to age and other environmental factors, you may need a combination of both treatments. We perform these treatments during separate appointments to allow your face and neck the proper time to heal in between.

Almost anyone can benefit from a DiamondGlow facial in Oak Ridge. We commonly treat patients with deep skin blemishes or textural issues on the face and neck, but it’s effective in addressing a wide variety of concerns in a single session, including:
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, let us know before your session. We can tailor your facial to safely accommodate your needs.
DiamondGlow is absolutely effective treatment for mature skin. Its advanced exfoliation, extraction, and serum infusion process helps address common concerns associated with aging, such as dullness, uneven texture, fine lines, and dryness.
By removing dead skin cells and infusing targeted serums, DiamondGlow boosts hydration, improves skin elasticity, and promotes a brighter, more youthful complexion. Regular treatments can enhance your skin’s overall health and radiance, making it a great option for maintaining vibrant, healthy skin at any age.
At Shea, our team can customize your treatment to target your unique skin concerns and recommend an at-home regimen to perfectly complement and extend your results as long as possible.
DiamondGlow results typically last 4 to 6 weeks due to the natural process of cellular turnover in the skin. Our skin constantly regenerates by shedding its outermost layer of dead skin cells, and this process typically occurs every 28-30 days for younger skin. As we age, however, this turnover can slow down, leading to dullness and uneven texture.
After your DiamondGlow in Oak Ridge, the exfoliation and serum infusion will stimulate fresh, vibrant skin by removing dead skin cells and impurities. However, as new skin cells naturally come to the surface, the effects of the treatment gradually diminish. Over time, the skin will begin to accumulate dead skin cells again, and the benefits of exfoliation will start to fade, which is why many clients schedule follow-up treatments every 4-6 weeks to maintain their results.
Ongoing DiamondGlow facials can help keep your skin smooth and clear, but for the brightest skin, it’s key to have an effective at-home routine too. Properly tailored, medical-grade skincare products can make a huge difference in minimizing blemishes and breakouts, and mitigating the signs of aging.
At Shea Aesthetic Clinic, we offer a wide range of skincare products and can guide you on building a better routine for yourself. We’ve curated these products to target a variety of specific skin conditions, and can help you not only understand which products will be safe and effective for you, but exactly how often and what time of day you need to use each!
