This was my first time experiencing a lymphatic facial/massage. I appreciated the relaxed atmosphere and facial techniques. The leg massage machine was awesome! read more

Update 12/20: Just went back for a facial, and DANG it was relaxing. I was passed out and according to my boyfriend he "could tell". I left very moisturized and with smoooth and glossy skin. I love the peaceful environment Claire provides and the opportunity to really relax. read more

Amazing my mother in law and I had a great experience!! Definitely will recommend. 10/10 cuatomer service . Our face definitely looks glowy and soft read more

My facial was whatever. Will I come back? No. All the extracurricular things that occurred makes this a no for me. They must work on professionalism which is clearly a problem as per other reviews and now my experience. Let me explain: So my appointment started at 12pm. I arrived at 12:06 with my friend. My friend was immediately started on but I had to wait until 1215. So my lady was Claire. We are just about to start needling (I got the Groupon) and the door rings so she goes to get it. 15 minutes later I am sitting here feeling dumb. A little girl comes in the room and tells the lady doing my friends face that the pizza is ready. Did she leave me to eat lunch? I get the idea that 12 is lunchtime and we were 6 minutes late but why book appointments at this time just to not be truly invested or ready to work. Edit! Because I was writing this review as it was happening. Just found out she left me to microneedle a patient. Wtf!! read more

I bought a Groupon for three facials and because of that I went to all three appointments. This lady doesn't use anything professional or special. She absolutely does not give a one hour facial and she does not relax you. She starts late, washes your face, uses some weak suction device (that I'm guessing never gets cleaned) then slops some cold goo on you and leaves the room for 1/2 hour and comes back and dots lotion over the goo and tells you she's done. Then asks for a tip as you leave. It's insane. If you're going to send me home with the moisturizer goo then why do I need to lay there for 30 minutes?!?! Because the actual facial took all of 15 minutes of her time. Don't waste your time or money. read more

I enjoy my experience here at Aura skin and Body. I purchased a groupon for Microdermabrasion and it was quite simple to redeem- you just have to call and set up the appointment etc. The Microdermabrasion was painless and the part with her actually using the machine was probably the shortest part of the appointment and after she did that she also put on a hydration mask on my face which was cool and nice. You can tip with cash or card but their preference is cash and they will allow you to get the groupon price again for their services if you just call them. The appointment lasted an hour so not to long or short. I would definitely go again. read more

I've been going to Clair for many years. I'm very satisfied and my skin has never looked better. Clair is very professional and I highly recommend her services. Thanks to her I look much younger than my age. read more

I purchased a Groupon for anti-aging facial and I believed I gained more wrinkles in my visit. The only esthetician present: Junnie was also working the phone and the front desk while attending to two clients/facials at the same time. Her service was rushed and she didn't make me feel relaxed at all during my facial. She raised her voice because I told her that I didn't want her to use a needle in my face to burst a pimple I had. She then et me with two masks on for 15 minutes each while she went to attend another client . The whole experience was a waste. If they can't hire front desk receptionist, then at least do not overbook and work on two people at the same time when you only have one worker doing everything! I am offended by Junnie demeanor. It's not just about making money and accommodating as many people as possible. Professionalism counts! Hope anybody who reads this post would not waste their hard earned money on this place! She also redeemed my Groupon voucher a day ahead of my visit. - so I couldn't access it anymore the day of. Nobody has ever done that, because accidents can happen and people may need to reschedule or cancel last minute...and you can't even access your Groupon voucher anymore. Just terrible experience all together. read more

I have used multiple Groupon deals for facials and this place will keep my business. I went here for an acne facial after a year of wearing masks and some bad maskne! They really cleaned my whole face. Other places just did here and there. Then she offered me a deal for micro needling since I had so many scars for the acne. She carefully spent two hours on that appointment. She is very thorough. My skin is looking great after just two weeks. I have two more acne facials included in the package and I can't wait for the final results. I finally feel my face is being taken care of! read more

I purchased a package deal of 3 anti-aging facials on Dec 30, 2019. I used 1 that day and made an appointment for the following month. Due to family issues, I re-scheduled my Feb app't to March, and of course, then the pandemic hit. The manager/owner kept texting me that my expiration date was in March, if I understood correctly. I kept trying to tell her that no one had mentioned an expiration date to me, and she must have written the note in the wrong file. I did re-schedule to May 4, and then of course, the Governor shut everything down. Due to my senior citizen age!!, I gave up trying to schedule an appointment and in fact, stopped going anywhere, except 6:00am to the grocery store for senior citizen hour and a few appointments with my doctor. Fast foward to 2021, and I got my 2 vaccine shots in spring, and on May 28th, the Governor lifted all restrictions. I made an appointment for June 14, 2021 and received my 2nd facial. However, I was told that the 3rd facial had expired in 2020 and they would not honor it. Didn't matter that there was a pandemic or the Governor shut the state down. It was clear they did not want me for a customer anymore. BUYER BEWARE! read more

Well I'll start with the positive. My skin was so clean and soft after my facial here which is ultimately the goal. I ordered a groupon for Aura for couples facials and although it was our first one I assumed there would be two estheticians in the room but it was just one woman hopping back and forth between us. Also, she rushed, which makes me wonder if it was because we used a groupon. I won't be returning to find out. We barely had a chance to relax. I know there are 2 Aura spas, to be clear this is the one off of Old Lee Hwy in Fairfax across from Food Lion. read more

I've been going to see Claire and Susie for about 5-6 months now for microdermabrasion. They're absolutely amazing and extremely knowledgeable about the integrity of your skin. I have acne prone skin and have scars from teenage years. My skin has improved 90% since I have been here. Susie does awesome lash extensions too. They will honor the Groupon price if you pay them directly in cash. read more

Another dissatisfied Groupon review. I purchased this directly on Groupon, looking for a spa that is open on Saturdays. The Groupon said nothing about only being used M-fri. Google lists the hours as being open on Saturday. I called and asked to schedule an appointment on a Saturday. First she was going to do it, then she said they're not open on Saturdays, then she appeared to say they won't take Groupon customers on Saturday, which if that's the truth, should be made clear on the Groupon itself...she couldn't show me where it was on the Groupon. So, she hung up on me. I called back twice and finally got a hold of her, and she refused to accommodate me. She then hung up on me again. Incredibly rude and a waste of money. read more

Since teenage, I have had skin related issues especially acne and scarring. Those like me can guess how many places, products, specialists and what not i have tried just to get my skin to look healthy without any pimples . Over years what i have realized that it's not just about how effective a treatment is, it is also about how well it is handled!!! That's where Claire at aura skin & body has won my vote big time. She was so good and professional and at the same time she did not make me feel awkward about having so many pimples for her to pop (sorry TMI ). Instead, she did the treatment with care and sophistication. Absolutely loved it!! If it helps anyone like me, i get anxiety over having someone work on my face due to being so self-conscious about my skin, but she is the ONLY one who not only made me relax about my face being worked on, i actually fell asleep during the mask time!! Yup, that's how comfortable she had me feeling. Definitely going back!! Thank you Claire!! read more

I purchased a Groupon for the microdermabrasion service and was very happy with my first session yesterday! Scheduling was easy- I called and left a message and got a call back later that day. Claire didnt speak much English but enough for me to understand. She also texted me a reminder of my appointment the day before. They offer the same deal as Groupon of you decide to buy more packages after using your Groupon so I definitely think it's a good deal and will return. read more

I don't know who writes good reviews about this place! It's absolutely NOT a professional place! I bought a groupon for aqua microdermabrasion. First of all, when you call to make an appointment, the lady on the phone tells you she will text you the day before the appointment to give you an address! How weird! It's advertised like a spa place of business, but it isn't. It's a little door with a room with one person there treating two women at the same time in a residential complex. The aqua dermabrasion experience normally is done with an aqua dermabrasion machine. This is not the case at this place. She uses a wand with no professional hook up to go with it. She uses a low suction wand that does nothing that a home device could not do! It's NOT a professional person with a professional machine. Then she rubs Neutrogena SPF on your face for 30 minutes. Top it all off--She ASKS for her tip at the end of it!!!! Who does that!!! This is a lady that is taking your money. It is not done by a licensed person. The tool she uses is not a professional tool. Without that knowledge and the correct tools, how can anyone let this person touch their face? Be careful, without the right credentials, this person could damage your skin. read more

I started off with a Groupon. Prior this place I went to two other places and for various reasons kept looking for a place where I could become a regular client and be 100% satisfied. I've been going to AURA for over a year now and couldn't be more happier with the procedures and the results! Claire does an outstanding job! I go there for microdermabrasion mainly (recently tried micro-needling too, the result was noticeable!). My skin is very sensitive (I also try to fight the first wrinkles), but I always follow Claire's advices such as products and things I should/should not be doing and it's been paying off! I strongly recommend this place! Thanks Claire! read more

I went in for an anti-aging facial that I had purchased through Groupon. It took about an hour and I was very pleased with my skin. There was no one trying to sell you their products (which was a relief). While I was there I made my next facial appointment. * I did deduct a star because I found it extremely hard to get in touch with anyone to make the initial appointment. read more

This place is amazing!! I will never go anywhere else and my horrible oily skin has never been better Claire is just wonderful. I found this place on groupon a few years ago and have remained a customer since. It's not super fancy, I don't care much because I am there for my skin and I get so many compliments its worth it. I love it read more

So i came here for a facial & eye lashes. Everyone was super nice during the whole process. It was my first time getting a chemical peel & i was nervous because of all the horror stories i had heard about ppl getting burned. But the technician made sure i was comfortable, showed me the bottle & assured me, i had nothing to worry about. She did amazing job and wiped 10 years of stress off my face. I was also concerned about getting my eyelashes done for the first time bcuz many nail salons use hair glue. But the technican assured me she use certified lash glue and showed me the bottles & lashes she would b using. They also had a promotion going on $70 lashes. Great experience, will be returning!!! read more

I used a groupon for microdermabrasion, it was quite simple but effected. The lady did my eye brows for free which I loved how it looked. My skin was glowing at the end of the appointment. She gave me some skincare tips for my skin concerns and it helped. I went to another eyebrow lady after and she messed my brows up so I'll be gladly coming back to aura to get them fixed. read more

If I could give zero or negative I would. I never even got a facial. I called the number to set up an appointment. I understand the hours, I saw the website, which states Groupon customers only mon-fri. I had called and asked if I could schedule an appointment for Saturday, just because of my schedule, whoever I spoke to on Wednesday said yes and we scheduled for 11:30 on Saturday the 27th. I even got a confirmation text, which I responded to. Come the appointment day. I get there 15 mins early. I put the address in the gps, got to where the gps said the building was, pull up and the building number is different. So I begin to look for the building number on the website, found the building(which was on the other side of the lot), but couldn't locate the "office". I called her twice and texted her that I was in the parking lot and couldn't find the location. I waited for half an hour after my appointment started. She decides to respond (not call me back) to my text saying she has been waiting for 30 mins and to reschedule during mon-fri. I was outraged, because I'm over here blowing you up! On top she made it sound like I was at fault for not knowing their hours! Like lady, I called and made this appointment, this isn't out the blue. They ended up refunding me for the return price so I lost money over lack of professionalism. After the appointment I looked at yelp and saw this is a normal situation apparently. read more

They kill it here. Microderm includes your neck, I was shocked! Relaxing environment. Will return.

Susie did a hydro microdermabrasion facial and I feel fantastic. It was definitely needed and she also did extractions. The extractions was $20 extra and a little painful but basically anything hurts me so you may be more tolerant. Very relaxing! I used a Groupon deal which helped and she said they matched Groupon pricing thereafter. I'm curious to see what my face will look like tomorrow. She recommended coming every week and that's a huge commitment for me so I'm opting every 2 weeks or once a month. I definitely recommend.. do the Groupon deal first to see if you like it. #Flawless read more

So much more than you get with most facials!! Like many people, I bought the Groupon and wasn't sure what to expect. But after my first first it was clear that I'd found a good place that could help my sensitive skin and sun spots. Claire is so sweet and thorough. She addresses/treats the full face, neck AND décolletage. The pressure point massage is awesome for circulation. Then the mask portion is so relaxing I almost fall asleep. The location is easy to get to but not fancy. For the price point, experience and expertise this place is a diamond in the rough. I'll be buying another package from Claire - she honors the Groupon price if you pay her directly! read more

Claire is friendly and she knows what's she's doing. I went to her for the first time with a Groupon deal and I have been back many times now. My skin has significantly improve with each visit, I had blemishes, acne issues, acne scars, dark marks. She's amazing and always giving a great recommendation to take care of your skin. read more

Had a Groupon to do Microdermabrasion, its a great way to try out facial salon. Location is convenience. Junnie did my facial and I really liking it. She did a lot of pressure point pressing on my face and massage the neck as well. Good for circulation. The whole process took about an hour. Will definitely come back for other types of facial. read more

Beware, do not buy Groupon from this business! Imfor the past couple of days I have been trying to set up an appointment, I'm sent to voicemail, leave message. Just now I tried calling again, no ring tone, I'm sent directly to voicemail. I'm done. read more

It was my first time going to get a facial. She is wonderful and considerate and really has a way of making you feel calm and relaxed!! I would recommend going to her for anyone wants to feel valued! read more

I was treated the worse in my life from Claire, I purchased a Groupon for three microdermabrasion and scheduled an appointment with her, I was late by 10mins due to an emergency, I tried to make her understand with me but she canceled me, and asked me to make another one week appointment, on my way to her place, 20mins to my appointment, she called and asked me to rescheduled again for the second time. She did the two microdermabrasion, and she give me nine days appointment for my last treatment, I didn't receive any text or call from her. For my own suprised!! I went to the place and I was told they move out to another place, but no body knows where they move to, not a text or a called from Claire. I called and texted her more than 5 times no response from anyone. She is good on her job. The only problem is trust issues, you can't trust her. She did the first treatment great the second treatment was not too good. Please be careful when you doing business with her. It real. read more

I have been going for microdermabrasion facials for about 1 1/2 years. LOVE THEM!! I have always had a great experience every time I go. I first purchased a groupon for 3 microdermabrasion facials. They lose money when we purchase through groupon because they have to pay a fee. They offer the same price when purchasing directly through Aura with cash. Definitely worth every penny and more! My skin always glows and feels wonderful! I love how she uses pressure points on my face and head. I can't say enough about Aura Skin & Body! I've try other salons and nothing compares!! read more

Amazing job!!! The best customer service EVER and my skin looks amazing. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for affordable facial and microdermabrasion services. I will never go to Message Envy again! read more

Trying to call them but not getting any calls back. They don't even have an official voicemail so I don't know if it's the correct place

I just had one of the best facials I've had in a long time! This place is absolutely a hidden gem!

I purchased three microdermabrasion for myself and for my mom. We both loved it! Claire is very sweet and kind. She did a great great job! She takes her time and doesn't rush. She cares a lot about your skin and will give you great advice. She also texted me a day before to remind me of my appointment, which is very nice of her. She cares a lot about her clients. You don't get that at other places. Most places just want to make money but Claire isn't like that. You will def love her once you meet her. I recommend her to everyone! =) read more

I purchased a Groupon and scheduled an appointment. Claire, the only person who seems to work there, canceled my appointment the morning of. I was scheduled for a 9AM. I didn't receive the text (she should have called), so I ended up traveling 40 minutes just to find out I needed to reschedule. Then she came back to tell me she was booked for the next six weeks. Very disappointing. In addition, she doesn't speak very good English. She was unable to get me to someone who could. I had verbally and by writing asked several questions (my skin is super sensitive and this was my first time). She failed to answer ANY of them, most likely due to the language barrier. I was forced to schedule with another salon. Groupon gave me a credit so I used that towards my next purchase which was at AVI spa. I'm so glad I went here... They were fantastic and even fit me in for an hour facial that day. I will be using them now on a regular basis. I will never go back to Aura even if they gave me a free facial! read more
