Facial massager benefits and harms

Everyone agrees that body massage is a necessary procedure and brings noticeable benefits. I would like to find out whether facial and chin massage is useful and, if so, how to do it “competently”? The problem is relevant not only for older women, but also for relatively young girls. Unfortunately, the tendency for wrinkles to appear at a fairly early age exists and we want to resist it.

Benefits of facial massage

Many people are familiar with the traditional thesis of Western European doctors and cosmetologists: the less you force your face to move, the later its skin will age. Surely someone has heard the phrase: if you laugh less, fewer wrinkles will appear. Are European researchers far from the truth, are they going too far? Let's talk about this. To clear our conscience, let us clarify right away: in recent decades, Western scientists have not been so unanimous in their answers to the question raised.

As evidence, it makes sense to pay attention to how often we find in stores and on the Internet massagers designed to work with the face, and creams to achieve a greater effect of a popular spa procedure. Keeping an eye on this means making sure that the “cream-oil” group of cosmetics is extensive and in demand. What's the matter, who advised the Europeans to abandon their previous point of view?

The East is partly involved here. For centuries, women in India and China worshiped the art of massage therapists and spent a lot of time in massage rooms. This is their traditional attitude towards the path to beauty we mention. They go to personal masters and stand in line for hours at spas. Perhaps people from Indochina or natives of the Indus and Ganges valleys have some kind of special skin, different from our British-German-Slavic skin?

It turns out not. It’s just that eastern specialists really know how to masterfully massage the skin of the cheeks, chin, and neck. This is done carefully, carefully - and is necessarily accompanied by the use of oils, flavors and special gels in the “creative” process. Of course, they argue about priorities, but listening to the Chinese is not a sin. So let’s listen, but first we’ll find out why facial massage is useful and what people want to do to eliminate wrinkles under the eyes, on the temple area and around the lips in this way.

Positive results include:

1. improved blood circulation (and therefore skin color);
2. muscle relaxation (which means wrinkles will not appear);
3. increasing the elasticity of the upper layers (which means the shape of the cheeks and the contours of the chin will improve);
4. saturation of surface tissues with oxygen (which means swelling will disappear);
5. prevention of stress-forming surface effects (which means pimples and blackheads will appear less frequently).

The physical effect will manifest itself more clearly if, at the same time, oils and other beneficial substances are rubbed into the massaged areas, nourishing and moisturizing the skin and promoting tissue regeneration. Well, there is no need to talk about the feeling of relaxation that accompanies the whole complex of actions, a surge of vigor - such positive feelings are obvious. The points are touched in one specific place - the whole body responds gratefully to such actions.

Harmful effects of massage

A negative ending is possible in the following cases:

1. if a very young girl begins to get carried away with the described technique of fighting for facial beauty: the skin does not regenerate, but on the contrary, it loses the ability to naturally restore tone;
2. if a layer of oil or cream is applied to problem areas during a massage and the massage is performed too intensely, the manifestations of acne will intensify;
3. if there is a tendency to allergies, the face is excessively dry, there are abrasions, wounds or rashes (possibly infectious) - symptoms of irritation may appear;
4. if a person is 40 or more years old and his tissues are already prone to sagging, enhanced “processing” of the contour can significantly stretch the skin without the chance of “tightening” it in the future;
5. if there are many moles on the body, the vessels are located close to the surface or peeling (deep, medium), microdermabrasion took place shortly before the procedure;
6. if individual intolerance to some types of massage effects is revealed;
7. if the patient has diabetes or suffers from high intracranial pressure and is susceptible to attacks of hypertension;
8. if they begin to “knead” the temples, cheeks, and chin of a patient with a very thin face too intensively, there is a danger of bruising and subsequent sagging of the stretched areas.

As you understand, the question of the benefits or harms of facial massage should be studied individually, so before deciding on such a measure to eliminate existing defects in appearance, you should consult with an experienced cosmetologist. Perhaps you are not the kind of person who can be helped by mechanical impact on problem areas.

Types and techniques of influence

About the rules

Remember: this spa method will only be beneficial if you do it regularly, and not once a month. The recommended frequency of procedures is once a day or two days. “Kneading” the face of those under 25 years old is pointless: young skin does not need it. Makeup should first be removed and the surface of the face should be thoroughly cleaned. A (warm) compress is needed, as well as moisturizing/nourishing creams. When massaging areas in the “anti-wrinkle” direction, you need to move clearly along the massage lines. It is necessary to carefully study the 5 basic techniques of the procedure and the technique of their application.

About technology

1. There are two options for “warm-up”: with the pads of your fingers and with the help of your thumb and palm. The intake mainly affects the muscles.
2. The directions of rubbing are different. With superficial, the fingertips “work”; with deeper, the edge or base of the palm is “involved” in the process.
3. Stroking movements are directed from the boundaries of the facial contour to the central part. This activates lymph and blood flow, removes small scales, and achieves a state of relaxation.
4. Tapping is gentle tapping on the surface of the cheeks, chin, and around the lips. Produced with the back of the hand.
5. Vibration consists of dynamic, not too strong shaking made by the fingertips.

About the types

1. Classic (hygienic and preventive) - for the sake of tone and freshness of tissues;
2. relaxing – to relieve tension, relax and cleanse the surface layer;
3. lymphatic drainage – to improve blood flow from capillary blockages, remove excess fluid and reduce swelling;
4. plastic – to change the facial contour, gain a healthy glow, eliminate facial wrinkles;
5. chiroplastic – for the sake of a pronounced lifting effect (as an element of a complex procedure covering the neck, arms and trapezius muscle);
6. aromatic – to eliminate dry skin, smooth out wrinkles and improve overall well-being;
7. myofascial - for the sake of removing muscle tension, relaxing results, smoothing the nasolabial and correcting the contours of the cheekbones and chin;
8. medicinal – for the prevention of acne, smoothing tissue in the areas of comedones, combating signs of neuralgia and remnants of stagnant spots.

The type of procedure that is most beneficial for you will be determined by a cosmetologist. We hope that our advice will help women choose the best way to fight for an attractive appearance.

Modern women actively use facial massagers at home. However, not everyone knows that improper use of this technique can cause significant harm to health. In order to avoid this, it is necessary to purchase only high-quality and certified products, as well as massage correctly. Only then will the procedures be effective and help restore beauty, health, youth, and radiant skin.

About the benefits of a vibrating massager

Women often do not know which massager to choose for facial care, because the stores have a large assortment of similar equipment, both domestic and foreign. Statistics show that the most popular among buyers is the c3563c brand device, designed for comprehensive care of the skin of the face and neck.

Those who have never carried out such procedures at home before should choose this model as the easiest to use. You can massage using this technique every day, without restrictions, the recommended duration of the session is indicated in the instructions. There you can also read about how to properly use the equipment at home.

A vibrating sponge for the face helps to effectively cleanse the skin without damaging it.. The following can also be said about the benefits of vibration massage:

1. 
   
   
   
   Mechanical and electromagnetic vibration effectively smoothes wrinkles and prevents the appearance of new folds;
2. The skin is cleansed, the pores open and expand, the face acquires a healthy color;
3. Deep skin folds literally decrease in size before our eyes;
4. Under the influence of massage, age spots lighten or disappear completely.

It should be noted that vibration acts gently, without injuring the skin or disturbing its structure. Unlike many cosmetics with a rejuvenating effect, vibration massage does not cause allergic reactions. In order to get your face in order, it is advisable to conduct at least ten daily sessions. Then you can take a break. If necessary, the course is repeated after about two weeks.

With systematic use, a vibrating massager will help a woman look good and surprise others with young, toned, elastic skin of the face and neck. Similar devices are produced for the body. It is advisable to choose a model with several attachments that have different effects on the skin.

Contraindications for use

Scientists have long been engaged in a lively debate about the benefits and harms of electric massagers. It should be borne in mind that any battery- or mains-powered device is a potential source of hazardous radiation, so do not exceed the recommended duration of the procedure. As soon as the batteries begin to run out, the speed of the device decreases significantly, and it begins to make specific, unpleasant sounds, reminiscent of a slow buzz. In this case, you must immediately stop using the equipment until the batteries are replaced, otherwise the procedure will only harm your face and body.

The procedure will be effective only if the skin is free of wounds, abrasions, cracks and other mechanical damage. When exposed to a vibrating massager, the affected areas may become infected, and this will lead to serious complications.

Those with sensitive skin should not use an infrared facial massager.

It is important to keep the following in mind:

1. 
   
   
   
   Vibrating facial massage is absolutely contraindicated for children and adolescents. Some teenagers use such devices to get rid of acne, but they only make the situation worse;
2. You should not carry out the procedure during menstruation, a few days before and after menstruation, because at this time, due to unstable hormonal levels, a woman’s skin is especially sensitive and vulnerable;
3. Vibromassage is contraindicated for those who suffer from various neurological diseases, in particular, lesions or disorders of the facial nerves;
4. You cannot carry out the procedure while intoxicated, since all movements during the massage must be absolutely accurate and correct.

Women who are carrying a child should not get carried away with vibration massage, because radiation can adversely affect the intrauterine development of the fetus.

If you follow these simple rules, the procedure will be absolutely safe and will bring exceptional benefits to the girl or woman. Experts say that the effect is noticeable after the first two sessions of using the device.

How to massage correctly

Vibration technology allows for effective massage of the face and décolleté. It’s convenient when there are two women and they massage each other, so you can get into all the hard-to-reach areas. But, on the other hand, when a lady performs the procedure independently, without outside help, she adjusts the intensity of movements, depending on her desire. In this regard, the second option is better than the first.

Before starting vibration massage, make sure that the device is turned on and working correctly. If a mains-powered electric massager sparks when plugged in, it is recommended that you refrain from using it until the problem is resolved, otherwise you may get an electric shock.

It is recommended to start facial massage with a massager from the forehead area, then you can gradually go down. Here are the main areas that require the most careful treatment:

1. Forehead;
2. Cheeks;
3. Chin and the so-called “décolleté area”;
4. T-zone: nose and skin around the eyes.

You need to start and end the massage with stroking; for this, the vibrating massager passes over all areas of the face with light movements; you do not need to press on the nozzle. Gradually the movements become more and more intense. Where there are most wrinkles, the nozzle can be rotated forcefully in different directions, but so that there is no unpleasant sensation. The acupressure method is also very effective. To do this, fix the nozzle in one place and, without making much physical effort, hold it for some time on the problem area.

In order to make the skin on your neck more elastic and youthful, you need to move the massager up and down so that wrinkles are gradually smoothed out. The intensity of movements depends on the number and depth of wrinkles. The deeper the age folds, the more effort must be applied during massage.

If the procedure is performed correctly, the woman experiences virtually no discomfort. During the session, a slight burning or tingling sensation may be felt; this is considered completely normal. Most often this happens at first, when the skin has not yet had time to get used to the procedure.

How to properly care for the device

The device attachments must be cleaned and dusted after each use.. Since the device effectively cleanses a woman’s skin, dirt, dust, and particles of dead skin can accumulate inside the attachments. Depending on the type of nozzle and the diameter of the holes, you can simply blow into some of them, and in some it is advisable to clean the holes with a needle or other sharp object. Cleaning the attachments is especially important if a woman applies a cream or nourishing mask to her face before the session.

If the device is powered from the mains, you need to turn it off correctly: do not unplug it from the socket, but press the on/off button, and only then remove the plug. If you do not follow this simple rule, the vibrating massager may simply “burn out” from unexpected shutdown.

You should also keep the following in mind:

1. 
   
   
   
   The body of the massager and the surface of the attachments must be regularly wiped from dust, since the presence of a layer of dust does not have the best effect on the operation of the equipment;
2. You should not store equipment in places with high air humidity, as metal parts (if any) may suffer from corrosion;
3. Experts do not recommend repairing or disassembling Chinese-made equipment, since it is not initially designed for long-term use. It’s easier to buy a new device of the same type and just throw away the old one;
4. If the massager is not used for a long time, you must remove the batteries from it, otherwise they may leak and the equipment will be completely damaged. In a device powered by two or more batteries, they must all be of the same type.

It is best to purchase domestic models, as they have a long service life and can be repaired if there is any damage. If foreign equipment is purchased, instructions in Russian must certainly be attached to it. You should also request a warranty card upon purchase.

Facial massage at home

In order to tidy up your face, make it beautiful and clean, it is not at all necessary to use an industrial massager. First, you need to completely remove makeup from the skin using a special lotion - cleanser, then gently blot your face with a soft cloth. There is no need to rub to avoid irritation.

Vigorous movements of the facial muscles provide an excellent tightening and rejuvenating effect. This type of facial exercise is especially suitable for ladies suffering from a “triple chin”. The skin immediately begins to look much younger.

To get the effect of a roller massage, you can vigorously rub the skin with clenched fists, moving them back and forth. As a result, as when the skin is exposed to a vibrating massager, wrinkles will gradually smooth out.

Using a vibrating massager gives a quick and long-term effect if you use the device correctly and follow all safety precautions. Statistics say that using this technique is a great way to feel young and attractive at any age. Wrinkles are quickly smoothed out, crow's feet around the eyes disappear, and the skin acquires a healthy glow. Such results can be achieved in just a month of regular use of the device.
