The Benefits of Facial Massage

There comes a point during most facial treatments where you’re lulled into such a blissful state of relaxation that you naturally doze off for a few minutes—but you’re still reaping all the glorious anti aging benefits. Just like the rest of your body, facial muscles require exercise to keep you looking younger (sorry to add to your workout routine!).

Maximize the anti aging benefits of your facial treatments by incorporating regular massage into your daily skin care routine (and yes, it’s as good as it sounds).

Relieves tension
When the muscles on your face tense up, they are more likely to harbour wrinkles, which is why they need to be massaged out regularly. However the length of time for a facial massage required depends on your skin type. For oily and acne-prone skin, it’s best to keep it to under 10 minutes. If skin has a normal to dry complexion, no longer than 20 minutes is necessary (too much stimulation can lead to breakouts).

And employ different techniques: try soft tapping and pinching motions—don’t pull at the skin—starting from the inside of the face and working your way out. Always massage in an upward circular motion.

Increases circulation
Just like how you would massage a tender shoulder or back, your face muscles require the same TLC. Increase blood and oxygen flow to the face by massaging the soft lines around the mouth, eyes and brows.

Start upward, massage the neck and décolletage area, gently working toward the forehead and tending to the pressure points along the way. Be sure to concentrate on the delicate skin around the eye area with gentle circular motions. And after stepping out of a hot shower, splash cold water against the skin—the contrast also helps to stimulate blood circulation.

It’s a natural facelift
Stimulating the face muscles with regular massage helps to bring oxygen to that area—which is a natural form of anti aging skin care in itself. More blood flow to the area increases collagen production, which gives a healthy and natural glow to the complexion.

Allows face products to absorb better into the skin
Increase the effectiveness of your facial treatments by incorporating a massage into your at-home skin care routine. At night, cleanse skin, and apply your serum and moisturizer with gentle tapping motions. “It helps the product absorb more easily into the skin.”

You’ll look younger!
Depending on the condition of your skin, your age, skin care goals and budget, regular facial treatments—that incorporate some form of muscle stimulation through massage—work in combination with daily skin care to improve the overall appearance of your skin: anywhere from once a month (for normal to dry skin) to every two weeks (for combination or acne-prone skin) is recommended. The Spa’s Anti-Aging Peel facial treatment uses a combination of exfoliation with palm and crystal massage to stimulate blood flow and leave a youthful, glowing complexion.

And isn’t that the point of anti-aging skin care anyway?

Every individual wants to keep their skin healthy for a longer period of time. Many individuals follow a daily skincare routine at home. But sometimes, it is good to let the experts take care of your skin. A facial massage is a part of skincare. If you do facial using the right product under the supervision of a professional, then you will get a clear and healthy skin. A facial massage reduces stress and relieves psychological distress. It cleanses the skin. It improves blood circulation. Apart from detoxifying the skin, it rejuvenates the skin.

I love how you mentioned that a facial massage relives tension and wrinkles that are caused by tension of the face muscles. I gave birth to my first child 3 months ago and caring for my baby has been a 24/7 job that I feel very tensed and tired these days. I will consider getting a facial massage to ease my tension.

Wow, I didn't know how facial massages could help us improve our blood circulation. Last week, I decided I'd like to book a facial session, so while I researched them, I stumbled upon facial massages. I'm curious about getting my face massaged, so I'll look into it too. Thanks for the information on how we could improve our face's oxygen and blood flow.
