Gua sha works with the lymphatic system through gliding movements with a scraper along massage lines, whereas a classic massage involves manual work on the muscles. The techniques and areas of focus differ: gua sha is more focused on lymphatic drainage and toning. Read more in the article.
With the correct technique and healthy skin—no. Any slight redness immediately after the session fades within a few hours. If you are prone to vascular reactions, the specialist will adjust the pressure. Read more in the article.
Reduced puffiness, even skin tone, natural radiance, and a lifted facial appearance. The effect is visible immediately after the session and lasts for several days. Read more in the article.
Proceed with caution—it depends on the stage and severity of the couperose. In cases of mild spider veins, the specialist adapts the technique and avoids areas with visible vessels. If the couperose is pronounced, it is best to consult a dermatologist. Read more in the article.
The course consists of sessions held once a week over a period of 6–8 weeks. The maintenance regimen involves sessions once every 2–4 weeks. If there is a tendency toward swelling, sessions should be more frequent at the beginning of the course.

The initial effect is visible immediately after the first session. A lasting result is achieved through a course of 6–8 treatments. Following the course, a maintenance regimen of one session every 2–4 weeks is recommended to sustain the effect.
Yes, the material of the scraper matters. AURA uses scrapers made of natural stone—either jade or rose quartz. They do not heat up from the warmth of your hands and maintain a consistent temperature throughout the entire session.
Gua sha is an ancient Chinese face-massage technique that is now making a well-deserved return to skincare. The therapist works with a special natural-stone scraper along the massage lines: smooth, rhythmic movements move the lymph, improve microcirculation, and bring back the glow that fades with fatigue and stress.
The main difference from many cosmetic procedures is that gua sha works not with the surface but with what's deeper: the lymph, circulation, and muscle tone. So right after a session the face is fresh and lifted — puffiness subsides, the complexion evens out, and the contours read more clearly. The effect shows at once and lasts several days.
The technique works well both on its own and paired with other kinds of face massage. It's especially helpful for morning puffiness, dull skin, the first signs of fatigue, or as regular care for tone.
