The PMD Clean Pro RQ is a silicone sonic face cleanser with a rose quartz massage surface on the back. “RQ” stands for rose quartz. The quartz side uses gentle warmth to help massage in serums after cleansing.
Verdict: a nice upgrade if you like a relaxing massage step after cleansing. If you just want to clean your face, the standard PMD Clean does that for less.

Detailed Review
What stands out in the currently available product data:
- Four vibration modes let you switch from low steady to intense pulse, so you can dial in anything from a gentle daily cleanse to a more invigorating facial massage.
- Silicone bristles are gentler on reactive, rosacea-prone skin and rinse clean quickly, avoiding the upkeep of traditional brush heads.
- The heated gemstone and precious metal massager adds a warming post-cleanse step, and reviewers say skincare seems to absorb better afterward.
- Pulsing modes feel like a facial massage and are linked by reviewers to noticeably less facial puffiness.
- Cleansing brush and warming massager in one device saves counter space and replaces the need for a separate facial roller.
- A balm and charging cord are included, so the full cleansing-and-massage routine is ready to go out of the box.
