Frequently Asked Questions
What is gua sha?
Gua sha is a traditional Chinese skincare technique that involves gently gliding a smooth tool across the face to promote circulation, relieve muscle tension, and support lymphatic drainage.
It’s been practiced for centuries to encourage natural healing and radiance.
What are the benefits of using a gua sha tool?
Regular use can help reduce puffiness, sculpt and lift facial contours, ease jaw and facial tension, and promote a healthy glow by stimulating microcirculation and lymphatic flow.
Over time, skin looks smoother, firmer, and more refreshed.
How often should I use my gua sha?
For best results, use it 3–5 times a week for 3–5 minutes per session.
Many people enjoy incorporating gua sha into their morning or nighttime skincare rituals—it’s both effective and relaxing.
Do I need to use oil or serum with it?
Yes. Always use your gua sha with a facial oil or serum to ensure smooth gliding and prevent tugging on the skin.
This helps maximize absorption and supports skin barrier health.
Can gua sha replace my other skincare tools or treatments?
It complements them rather than replaces them.
Gua sha enhances circulation and absorption, so it actually helps your other products perform better.
Think of it as the foundation of your skincare ritual.
When will I see results?
Many users notice an immediate reduction in puffiness and a lifted appearance after the first use.
With consistent practice, you’ll see long-term improvements in tone, texture, and overall radiance.
What does 'gua sha' mean in Chinese?
The term "gua sha" translates from Chinese as "scraping sand."
The "sand" in the translation refers to the petechiae, which are thought to represent stagnant blood or toxins that are being released from the body.
