A vertical wrinkle between the eyebrows often appears in people who have the habit of frowning. Such folds can be present even at a fairly young age due to hypertonicity of the paired muscle. Over the years, under the influence of the aging process, the skin of the face becomes dehydrated and lacks collagen cells, so wrinkles become deeper and more pronounced. The defect can be eliminated with Botox or hyaluronic acid injections, laser resurfacing and plastic surgery. There are also less painful techniques, for example, aesthetic facial taping.

The procedure involves applying cotton or silk tapes on an adhesive base in the direction of the massage lines. The tape reduces tension in the facial muscles, improves blood circulation and lymph movement, which helps smooth out wrinkles, and also prevents the occurrence of swelling and fluid stagnation in the tissues. The skin acquires a healthy color and becomes more elastic (read more about reviews and the principle of operation of the kinesio tape patch in this article).

The aesthetic taping method is used to correct eyebrow and nasolabial folds, lift the forehead and eliminate crow's feet. There are various tape techniques to sculpt the face and reduce double chin. A full course of several sessions helps strengthen muscles and prevent the occurrence of new irregularities.

How to perform facial taping

Correction tapes are made from natural material, which has such advantages as breathability and the ability to transmit moisture. Throughout the entire period of wearing the strips on the skin of the face, they do not cause any discomfort and allow you to lead a normal lifestyle. Quick-drying acrylic-based adhesive securely holds the tape, prevents it from moving and ensures continuous action on muscle tissue. The substance does not dissolve in water, so you can wash your face and go to the pool with the tapes on your face or neck.

In order to apply the tape correctly, you need to understand the structure of the facial muscles. The direction in which the tape is applied depends on the selected area and the problem being addressed. In case of sagging skin and the formation of a double chin, modeling facial taping will help. To smooth out unevenness on the forehead, the tape is applied from the area between the eyebrows to the hairline. Transverse wrinkles can be removed using several thin tapes applied horizontally.

The cause of facial wrinkles is excessive tension in the facial muscles, so an elastic strip is applied in the direction of their movement to relieve some of the stress and relax the internal tissues. Myofascial application during taping helps eliminate spasms and pain by releasing blood vessels from pressure, after which the skin becomes smoother and the facial expression becomes calmer. The tape immobilizes the muscle and prevents it from contracting, which prevents the formation of wrinkles. This taping technique is also used for neuritis of the facial nerve at the initial stage of the disease or during its chronic course.

Selecting and using tapes to correct the area between the eyebrows

Facial tapes are made from soft and safe premium materials - eco-cotton of natural origin and artificial silk, which you can purchase in the Buy kinesio tapes section of the website. The strips do not cause discomfort even when applied to sensitive areas and have an effective effect on muscle tissue. Both narrow and wide patches are optimal for facial taping, which can be cut to perform a lymphatic drainage procedure. The split tape is applied in a specific pattern to improve fluid circulation due to additional pressure.

There are different taping techniques to reduce wrinkles between the eyebrows. The paired muscle can be fixed using one or two narrow vertical strips. During this procedure, the tape is placed horizontally, in the direction from the nose to the side of the forehead. The application is glued without tension onto smoothed facial skin.

At the same time, X-shaped tape, which consists of two strips, will help eliminate unevenness between the eyebrows, as well as lift the forehead and around the eyes. The tapes are applied diagonally across the entire face, precisely bending around the correction zones and creating a curved contour. Cosmetologists recommend combining techniques to achieve the best effect.

How to do facial taping at home

Gluing tapes using a complex technique to tighten large areas should be entrusted to a specialist who will apply the strips in the right direction, taking into account your individual anatomical features. It is not difficult to correct wrinkles between the eyebrows on your own after familiarizing yourself with the structure of the muscles and studying facial taping schemes; it is also advisable to take a full training course. To achieve long-term and high-quality results, it is necessary to carry out several daily procedures. Gluing strips to one area will not take much time. The tapes should be worn for at least 30 minutes; they can also be left on the face overnight, since if the taping technology is followed, the patches will retain their original position even after 12 hours.

In order for the strips to adhere securely and provide maximum effect, the skin must be dry and clean. Do not apply moisturizer or serum to your face, otherwise the tape will quickly peel off. A small tape applied without tension will further keep the muscle from tension, and the wrinkle will gradually smooth out. Rub the patch thoroughly after application to heat and soften the adhesive layer for better fixation and maximum adhesion of the strip to the skin. Removing soft tapes for aesthetic facial correction does not require much effort - just moisten the tape with a special oil-based liquid and remove it with a gentle movement.

8. Important tips

  1. The use of tapes has noticeable advantages over other procedures for improving appearance. For example, compared to plastic surgery, it is safer and suitable for those people who are afraid to go under the knife. At the same time, taping is inferior to surgical intervention, since the effect of the procedure does not last as long. Therefore, regularity is important here, and this is perhaps the main and only drawback of anti-aging aesthetic taping;
  2. According to experts, taping is a multifunctional procedure that not only significantly combats age-related changes, but also removes swelling and hematomas. In addition, tapes lift the skin, which allows lymph to move freely in the body;
  3. A taping session is always individual. There are different schemes for applying tapes depending on the purpose, and the tapes themselves need to be worn from half an hour to several days if the wrinkles are deep or the skin is very saggy;
  4. It is best to start taping at the age of 25-30 to prevent the appearance of facial wrinkles. At this age, procedures are performed infrequently, only for preventive purposes. When deep wrinkles appear, it is advisable to take a course of 50 sessions, this will take several months;

Facial tape options

Different colors of tapes

Despite the fact that after sticking a special patch, a slight itching is felt, this does not mean an allergic reaction. There is no need to remove the tape from your face because of this.

How to apply tape

A special taper patch has physical properties that resemble human skin. Thus, fixing the skin in the correct position helps to ensure a lifting effect and accelerate intercellular processes. To attach tapes to the face against wrinkles, there are instructions for each specific case.

Removal of nasolabial folds

Smoothing wrinkles in the eye area

Taping is aimed at the outer side of the orbicularis muscle. To do this, a tape two centimeters long is glued from the eyebrow to the protruding cheekbone area. The middle part of the tape should be attached to the corner of the eye. After this, apply anti-wrinkle tapes to the face on the upper and lower parts, without creating tension. It is recommended to tap the eye area for five hours during the day or in the evening.

Note! Leaving the patch on overnight can cause every existing wrinkle and crease to become deeper.

Smooth out wrinkles between eyebrows

The length of the first anti-wrinkle facial tape, which has a forked end, is the height of the forehead. The location for taping the eyebrow wrinkle is from the area between the eyebrows to the beginning of the hairline. The area where the two remaining patches are applied is the frontalis muscle from the area where the eyebrow ends.

Helpful advice. A greater effect can be achieved if the patch is applied to the interglabellar muscle in an outward direction.
