Aurah’s Acne Treatments Explained



OPL (Optimal Pulse Light) Treatments


Aurah's OPL treatments employ cutting-edge Optimal Pulse Light technology to effectively target the root causes of acne. The broad-spectrum light works to diminish acne-causing bacteria, reduce inflammation, and shrink overactive oil glands, resulting in a clearer complexion.



Who Benefits from OPL Treatments?

This treatment is best suited for individuals with mild to moderate acne, especially those with Fitzpatrick skin types 1–4. If you have recently taken isotretinoin (Roaccutane), are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have certain skin conditions, we’ll guide you to the appropriate alternative.


What to Expect

Each session lasts about 35–40 minutes, and many clients report only minimal side effects, such as slight redness, which typically resolves within hours. We recommend a series of 4–6 sessions spaced a few weeks apart to achieve the desired results. Our expert team will provide continuous support throughout your treatment journey.

SELF CARE BEGINS
WITH SKIN CARE

HydroFacial Treatments


HydroFacials are one of our most popular treatments for a reason. This multi-step facial treatment deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates your skin using advanced vortex technology. Our Glow HydroFacial variant even incorporates LED light therapy and customised booster serums specifically designed to target acne.



Who CAN Benefit from A HydroFacial?

Ideal for those with congested, oily, or mildly acneic skin, the HydroFacial not only cleanses but also hydrates and nourishes your skin, reducing the visibility of pores and inflammation. This treatment is often recommended as part of an ongoing maintenance plan to keep your skin in top condition.


What to Expect

Sessions last approximately 30 minutes. There’s little to no downtime, meaning you can return to your daily activities immediately afterwards. Many clients leave feeling rejuvenated, with noticeably smoother, brighter skin.

Bioactive Algae PeelS


Aurah’s Bioactive Algae Peel utilises the natural properties of freshwater algae spicules, which penetrate deeper than traditional peels. This unique formulation stimulates cell turnover and microcirculation, promoting natural exfoliation and skin rejuvenation.



Who CAN Benefit from An Algae Peel?

This corrective peel is excellent for individuals dealing with acne scarring, uneven skin texture, and pigmentation concerns. Its deeper biological action can help reduce acne marks and enhance your skin’s overall appearance.


What to Expect

The Bioactive Algae Peel treatment involves a consultation to assess your skin type and condition. Clients typically see significant improvements in texture and tone after following a recommended series of treatments.

Who CAN Benefit from A CREAM MASK?

Aurah's cream masks can help reduce redness and irritation while delivering essential nutrients to your skin. Whether you need a calming treatment for inflamed breakouts or a hydrating boost for dry, acne-prone areas, our masks can be incorporated into your skincare routine for enhanced results.

What to Expect

Following the cream mask application, clients experience immediate hydration and a noticeable reduction in visible redness. Regular use of the mask can help achieve clearer, healthier skin.

HydroJelly MASK Treatments


HydroJelly treatments are an innovative skincare solution that provides intense hydration and nourishment. These jelly masks are enriched with beneficial ingredients that help revitalise, soothe, and rejuvenate acne-prone skin.

HydroJelly masks are designed to lock in moisture and deliver a cooling sensation that helps soothe inflammation and redness associated with acne.

What to Expect

During a HydroJelly treatment, the jelly mask is applied after your facial session, allowing it to adhere closely to the skin and maximise hydration. Each session lasts around 30 minutes, and clients often report a refreshing and soothing experience. Post-treatment, you can expect your skin to feel deeply hydrated and look visibly glowing.

Microneedling for Acne Scarring


Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment technique that uses fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response. This promotes collagen and elastin production, which can significantly improve the appearance of acne scars over time.


Who CAN Benefit from A MICRONEEDLING?

Microneedling is particularly beneficial for individuals with post-acne scarring or pitted skin. It can also help reduce the visibility of enlarged pores and improve overall skin texture.

What to Expect

Sessions typically last around 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. You may experience some redness and mild swelling immediately after the procedure, similar to a mild sunburn, but this usually subsides within a few hours to a couple of days. We generally recommend a series of 3–6 treatments for optimal results, spaced a few weeks apart.

Post-Treatment Care


After your treatments, proper aftercare is crucial to ensure the best results. Our team will provide you with tailored aftercare instructions, which may include:


Daily sun protection

A broad-spectrum SPF is essential to shield your skin from UV damage, especially after exfoliating treatments.


Gentle Skincare Routine

Avoid harsh exfoliants and use only non-comedogenic products to prevent irritation.


Hydration Guidance

Proper hydration is vital for skin recovery; we’ll recommend suitable moisturisers and serums to support your skin’s healing process.
