We all want to look and feel our best, and skin care is a great way to sneak a little self-care into your busy day. With so many different skin care treatments out there, you may feel overwhelmed at the idea of innovating your skin care routine.
Don’t stress! We’re here to simplify skin care for you. Hop in and buckle your beauty seat belts. It’s time to learn about a super simple and effective skin care treatment—microdermabrasion.
If you want to understand microdermabrasion, you’ve gotta understand exfoliation first. Why do we need it? Gunk like dead skin cells and excess oil can build up on your skin, preventing it from absorbing products—a no-no for good skin care!
Exfoliation fixes this problem by removing dead cells and oil on the outer layer of your skin.
So, are there different types of exfoliation?
Your skin exfoliates itself naturally (hello, dead skin cells!), but sometimes it needs a little help. If you notice dryness or dullness in your skin, exfoliation can save the day! There are two main types of exfoliation: manual and chemical.
Manual Exfoliation
Is the act of physically exfoliating your skin with a scrub or cleansing brush. Manual exfoliation works well with any skin care routine.
Chemical exfoliation
Uses gentle acid to strip away your dead skin. Chemical exfoliation products can react with other products like retinols, so be mindful when adding chemical exfoliation to your routine.
Auria’s routines combine the best of both worlds—manual and chemical exfoliation. Reveal fresher, younger-looking skin with Auria.

There are three main types of exfoliation:
Crystal
A hand-held device gently sprays crystals on your skin to exfoliate and then uses suction to remove the crystals and dead skin cells. This is usually done by a professional to minimize risk from crystal use.
Diamond
The diamond tip of a hand-held device gently exfoliates your skin and then uses suction to remove the dead skin cells.
Water-based
Also called hydradermabrasion, a hand-held device sprays concentrated water droplets to exfoliate and infuse serums into your skin.
Each of these treatments can be done in a clinic or at home.
Should you try microdermabrasion at home or at a clinic?

Where should you try your microdermabrasion? It depends on what’s most important for you and fits your lifestyle.
If you want a hands-off, expert-guided experience, then a clinic is a good choice for you. The dermatologist or esthetician will handle all the microdermabrasion—all you need to do is to sit back and relax!
If convenience and affordability are your top priorities, then at-home microdermabrasion is the perfect fit. You won’t have to wait in line or schedule a spa appointment–just take a few minutes to use your microdermabrasion device whenever you want!
At-home microdermabrasion is also more affordable compared to multiple in-office sessions:
- In-office microdermabrasion
- $167/session
- At-home microdermabrasion with Auria
- Vita Solo $199 / Vita Trio $249

There are so many benefits to microdermabrasion, and there’s an easy way to get started at home.
Meet the Auria Vita! This diamond microdermabrasion device is a powerful, portable luxury ticket to spa-worthy skin.
The Auria Vita offers two fabulous microdermabrasion treatments: diamond microdermabrasion and kinetic toning. Its patent-pending Smart Tip technology automatically detects each different type of tip, so you can seamlessly switch between treatment modes.
Exfoliate Microdermabrasion Diamond Tip
The Exfoliate diamond tip gently buffs away dead skin cells and promotes healthy, new skin cell growth. Regular exfoliation reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and age spots. Experience softer, smoother skin, a more radiant complexion, and better product absorption.
Tone Kinetic Toning Tip
The Tone kinetic toning tip works to stimulate your skin, increase circulation, and restore your skin’s natural luster. The combination of sonic vibrations, isometric compression, and a vacuuming effect stimulates your skin and increases circulation. As a result, your body carries more oxygen to the dermis, which helps to combat the common side effects of aging.
With the Auria Vita, you can seize snack-sized moments of self-care, whether you have five minutes or five hours!
