COSMETIC GUA SHA FACIAL TREATMENT – THE NATURAL FACELIFT

The Gua Sha Facial Treatment is a natural and holistic anti-aging treatment rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The treatment focuses intensely on drainage and connective tissue massage, strengthening the skin from within and creating better balance.

The Gua Sha Facial Treatment is a true alternative to botox and fillers, as it is a natural way to achieve lifting, tightening, and a fresher, younger appearance. You will experience that the treatment:

● Increases blood circulation and promotes oxygen flow
● Enhances nutrient absorption
● Activates cells and supports collagen production
● Drains fluid retention
● Relaxes the muscles
● Softens connective tissue
● Calms the nervous system
● Supports skin healing and immune activity
● Has anti-inflammatory effects and helps to balance imbalances

This can be seen in the skin as:
● A more even skin texture and tone
● A fresh and healthy glow
● Increased suppleness and elasticity
● Reduced dark circles and puffiness under the eyes
● More volume, reducing fine lines and wrinkles
● Improvement in conditions like rosacea and acne
● Reduction in redness and irritation overall

You will see and feel the effect after just one treatment. For optimal results, a course of at least 3 treatments with 1-2 week intervals is recommended, followed by maintenance every 4-6 weeks.

The treatment consists of: skin analysis, cleansing, light exfoliation, Gua Sha and cupping facial massage, and mask. The treatment ends with day cream, eye cream, and SPF. Duration: 50 minutes.

Important:
Gua means “to scrape” and Sha refers to “red spots/redness,” which relates to the red marks or redness that may appear in the areas treated during a Gua Sha facial.

These spots/redness occur because we create tiny microbleedings that spread into the tissue, forming small red dots, also known as petechiae. These are completely harmless and are not permanent injuries—they will gradually fade over the course of 1 to 5 days, depending on their intensity. This process is exactly what activates the immune system and initiates healing and regeneration. The microbleedings increase blood flow to the area, which kickstarts the anti-inflammatory response in the skin.

That’s why it’s important to inform your skin therapist if you have a major event coming up soon, so we can take that into consideration. We recommend scheduling the treatment about 1 week to 10 days before your event, especially if you are a new client.

This treatment builds Gua Sha and Cupping on the Japanese Liting method. The face and neck are treated with gua sha rose quartz stones, a technique that reduces lines and wrinkles, dark circles, bags under the eyes and increases blood flow.
The cupping massage drains lymph and waste products using small suction cups. The skin is oxygenated and connective tissue is lifted.

The treatment includes: Double cleansing of the face, skin analysis and guidance, peeling, Gua Sha and cupping massage, acupressure, reflexology, deep connective tissue massage of the face combined with light lymphatic drainage strokes, face mask, warm compress with aroma scent, finished with cream, eye cream and spf.

Duration: approx. 75 min. Japanese Lifting Gua Sha is only performed by Sarah, Iryna and Camilla.
