The plucking technique helps to effectively improve skin tone and tighten the oval of the face.

One of the most effective anti-aging massage techniques is the Spanish massage of chiropractor Enrique Garcia. The technique is based on relaxation of deep muscles and the patient receiving pleasure during the session.

Facial massage for wrinkles at home

Some types of massage can be done independently; each has its own specifics, which must be studied so as not to get the opposite effect in the form of stretched skin. Japanese and Chinese massages are based on knowledge of the location of biologically active points, while sculpting massages are based on a good knowledge of anatomy. Therefore, if you are not confident in your knowledge of a particular massage technique, it is better to trust a professional.

The easiest one to perform is classic self-massage. This is a good prevention of wrinkles; if you do it every day from the age of 25-30, their appearance will be postponed to a much later date:

  1. Smooth the skin of the forehead in a circular motion from the center to the temples;

One of the simplest and most effective methods against age-related wrinkles on the face is massage. Of course, it is difficult to determine exactly when it is worth starting to do it, since skin changes begin for each person at different times, purely individually. Usually they begin to use it when the first wrinkles form, then at 25–28 years. In this case, it lives up to expectations and helps delay aging.

Preparing for a massage against wrinkles on the face

Massage always begins with preparing the skin of the face and hands. Hands are the main tool, so you need to take care of their condition in advance:

Before the procedure, the face is well cleaned of decorative cosmetics, dust and other contaminants. Next, they steam it - wash it with hot water, a decoction of medicinal plants, or apply a damp towel soaked in hot water for several minutes. You should not hold it for a long time to avoid burns.

Next, it is lubricated with the chosen product: dry skin with oil, oily skin with massage cream. Leave on face for 10 minutes to absorb. Remove excess cream with a cotton pad and proceed directly to the procedure.

To do massage at home, it is important to know some rules:

  1. the skin should not be stretched or pressed hard;
  2. hand movements should be smooth, stroking and sliding.

The following techniques are used:

Classic anti-wrinkle massage

It is a good prevention of the early appearance of wrinkles. The main rule is that all movements must be carried out along massage lines that coincide with the lymph flow. This way, all manipulations will bring a noticeable effect, but otherwise the skin condition will worsen, and wrinkles will become even more noticeable and deeper.

It uses mainly gentle techniques - stroking and patting movements, as well as rubbing:

  1. The procedure begins from the center of the forehead. The muscles need to be relaxed as much as possible. The forehead is rubbed in the direction from the bridge of the nose to the temples and ends in the area where hair growth begins. If the wrinkles are deep, then the massage should be supplemented with kneading.
  2. Next they massage eye and eyelid area. Here it should be remembered that the direction of manipulation of the skin above the eyes is from the bridge of the nose to the outer corner, and under the eyes from the outer corner to the inner. They are done with careful and delicate movements, since the skin here is very delicate and sensitive, it should not be stretched. The upper eyelid area is gently patted with your fingertips. Sliding movements are applied to the lower eyelid. Pay special attention to the outer corner, where the so-called “crow’s feet” wrinkles form; tap in this area for a few seconds.

If wrinkles are pronounced, more intensive manipulations are used:

  1. From vertical wrinkles on the forehead The following technique is effective. The fingertips are placed at the intersection of the eyebrows and the bridge of the nose and apply pressure, then lead towards the temples and lightly stroke them back. Do it 10 times.
  2. To remove nasolabial folds, apply pressure in the nostril area with two fingers.

If the wrinkles are already clearly visible and deep, then active pinching is used. After this procedure they become smaller.

Acupressure facial massage

There are several methods of this massage that came from Japan, Tibet, China, Korea and India, but they are all based on influencing biologically active points on the face by pressing. The number of points varies.

  1. The massage is performed with warm hands.
  2. The main instrument is usually the pad of the thumb; some also use the index and middle fingers.
  3. One pressure lasts up to 7 seconds, on the neck - up to 4 seconds.

The following techniques are used in Chinese acupressure:

  1. Kneading. They are made with the pad of the thumb, while it also holds the index finger. When kneading, the main work is done with the subcutaneous tissue; it is this that should move, when the skin should not form folds. The pad should stand strictly on the active point. It is necessary to make 75 movements counterclockwise.
  2. Pressure also done with the thumb, placing it in the center of the point, until there is aching and numbness. If pain occurs, stop the procedure, pause for 3 minutes and continue again.
  3. Pushing perform up and down and left and right, you need to do them 25 times.
  4. Stroking – this is a slight movement with the pad of the thumb over a small area of ​​up to 2 cm; there is no discomfort or pain during movement.

Let's look at an example of one of the varieties of Chinese massage. To rejuvenate, press on several biological points on the face:

Video: Master classes on anti-wrinkle facial massage

The video offers detailed instructions on how to do a facial massage for wrinkles at home:

The video presents the Japanese anti-wrinkle massage technique Asahi, and also talks about effective facial gymnastics:

Hello, friends! Isn't it great when a woman looks younger than her age? Today I would like to continue the topic of massage, which I started in the article about lymphatic drainage facial massage. Today I’ll tell you about one of the types of this massage - Japanese facial massage. Judging by the reviews, it perfectly helps fight wrinkles.

Who invented

This method of massage has been known since ancient times. But brought to perfection and presented in practical form by the Japanese stylist Tanaka Yukuko. In 2007, she presented the world with the book “Facial Massage”. This work generated positive reviews and lively debate among both readers and critics.

Have you noticed how young the women of the land of the rising sun look? Their beauty is often characterized by longevity, refined features and snow-white skin. Maybe we should adopt their beauty recipes?

The well-known name of this amazing massage is Zogan, which literally means “creating a face.” In RuNet it is better known as Asahi (or “morning sun massage”)

Cosmetologists and dermatologists recognize lymphatic drainage massage as rejuvenating, as it affects the lymph flow pathways.

Basic recommendations for implementation

You can master the ability to properly massage your face. There are instructional videos available for this. The best option is to do 1-2 sessions in a salon with a professional. Then you can do the massage yourself. This way, you can understand the technique of performing the procedure.

Just remember, Tsogan procedures are not a one-time session. Regularity is required to achieve the rejuvenation effect.

The main rule is that all manipulations with the face must be carried out exactly according to the location of the lymphatic pathways

This massage is therapeutic in nature. To gradually get rid of wrinkles, just a little effort when pressing on the face is enough.

  1. Cleanse your face first. To do this, use your favorite cleanser: micellar water, foam or gel. Remove any remaining moisture with a paper napkin. It is good to do the procedure in the morning.
  2. Before starting, apply a special oil-based massage product. Can be replaced with moisturizer or cosmetic milk. But I still recommend buying an oil base.
  3. Carefully study the video instructions in this article. You must clearly know which areas of the face to press on.
  4. at the end, be sure to remove the remaining oil base (cream) with a napkin and wash with warm water.

What problems may arise after a massage and how to solve them

If everything is done correctly and carefully, no problems will arise. But in some cases, some troubles may arise:

Skin rash

As I wrote above, you can’t do a massage if you have skin rashes. You will spread more irritation. At this time, it is better to take a course of soothing masks or white clay.

If irritation is caused by massage, then the rash will be localized in the area of ​​the lymphatic tract.

  1. stop massage until the rash completely disappears;
  2. change the massage product;
  3. Remove massage oil (base) more thoroughly after the procedure.

Facial weight loss

For those who already have a doll-like face with sunken cheeks, this can cause inconvenience. To avoid this, you need to reduce the number of sessions.

If your face becomes flat and expressionless, this massage is not suitable for you at all. Switch to another type of facial gymnastics.

Morning swelling

Check out where this problem is coming from. I described the most basic reasons in the article “causes of puffiness under the eyes.” Maybe it has something to do with nutrition. It is better not to massage at night. This may cause swelling in the morning.

Zogan massage is called “Morning Sun” because it is best done in the morning. How to quickly get rid of swelling, see another article.

Cuperosis

It appears in the form of blood vessels and stars on the face. If you have this disease, lymphomassage can be done with caution, and even better, consult a doctor. If these signs appeared after the Asahi massage:

  1. exclude exercises in the area of ​​rosacea;
  2. use a special cream for the treatment and prevention of rosacea;
  3. use scrubs and peels less often;
  4. avoid temperature changes.

Japanese facial massage – reviews from those who have experienced its effects

Karina: I have been doing massage for a week. I chose virgin coconut oil as the oil. I love! Only positive effect.

Tatiana: Hello! And I had a bad experience. I am 35 years old. I had a massage for 14 days. Signs of swelling and nasolabial folds became even more pronounced. The face somehow became haggard. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Adelia: And Asahi’s self-massage really works. After a week-long course, my cosmetologist noted improvements in my face. And the opinion of a professional is worth a lot!

Lydia: I liked everything. When I started doing massage (about 3 months), I didn’t find any warnings about a thin face. Now I have a problem and “have something to fight with.” Girls, pay serious attention to this moment!

Margot: I started doing massage for 2 weeks. I chose peach oil for myself. I didn’t feel particularly rejuvenated. The skin tightened up a little and that’s it. I don’t notice a great effect on the color and pores of my face. Although, maybe 14 days is not enough?

Tamara: And my skin condition immediately improved. And then somehow my face seemed to sag. The folds around the nose became more visible. It didn’t seem to stretch it much. As soon as I stopped, everything quickly fell into place. But I did everything right.

We understand perfectly well that massage alone is not enough. Of course, you need to take care of yourself from the inside too: eat right, drink clean water, don’t get nervous.

The use of additional care products is very important at any age. Especially after 40. I often see reviews like this: “The skin is saggy.” You need to train your facial muscles the same way you train your body muscles in the gym. I recommend doing special gymnastics for the face, which keeps the muscles toned. I plan to write an article about her soon 🙂

Do not forget about the use of special anti-aging products. Compliance with an integrated approach is the key to beauty and youth!
