Due to multiple contraindications for anti-aging and cleansing products, their use sometimes becomes impossible. However, there is another, more ancient, way to rejuvenate facial skin. This is a regular massage.
Rejuvenating facial massage, the incredible effect of which is achieved due to its influence on biological points of the body, which leads to the disappearance of wrinkles and bags under the eyes, relieves stress, gives the skin rest and the opportunity to relax.
As a result, with constant procedures, you can become 10 years younger. According to Tibetan medicine, there are areas on our face that affect the health of the heart, kidneys, liver, lungs, stomach, large and small intestines, and accordingly, such a massage has a beneficial effect on the overall health of the body.

The most common type of gymnastics is classical. It is simple, effective and allows you to do the exercises yourself. The procedure itself consists of a set of techniques.
The most important stages of massage Gymnastics begins with circular movements of the fingers from the corner of the mouth to the corner of the eyes, then from the bridge of the nose to the sharks. The gymnastics ends with movements towards attacks from the middle of the forehead. If there are no transverse wrinkles, you can add movement in the opposite direction. All techniques are repeated 4-5 times.
Most effective
One of the most common in the post-Soviet space is Japanese massage. This method of gymnastics can not only strengthen and tighten the skin of the face, but also correct the oval, remove toxins and excess fluid from the skin, and improve tissue nutrition.
It's direct Helps slow down the aging process of the skin , the emergence of dark shades of pigmentation, acceleration of hair growth.
The essence of the exercises is to gently tap on the active points of the epidermis.
Rejuvenating massage exercises
The procedure begins by tapping on biological points located under the ear buds. Then, the palms are attached to the ears, and with the tips of the fingers, the active massage points located on the back of the head are pressed.
After that, you need to use your index finger and thumb, making circular movements, to move from the bridge of your nose to your temples.
And the last exercise: The palms are pressed against the attacks, and the fingertips are used to tap on points located in the area of the crown. Each technique should be repeated at least thirty times.
Directions of massage movements for facial skin rejuvenation A very effective technique is French facial gymnastics. It literally produces a magical effect of rejuvenation. However, it cannot be done independently.
Despite the differences in technique, as with Japanese massage, in a very short period the firmness and elasticity of the skin increases, the oval of the face is tightened and the aging process slows down.
According to many famous cosmetologists and professional massage therapists When performing a rejuvenating facial massage, an incredible effect is achieved through the combined use of different massage techniques and effects on the body.
To achieve a better effect, you need to increase in your diet the amount of foods containing vitamins A and E, the so-called vitamins of youth.
Reduced consumption of which immediately leads to rapid aging of the skin.
Contraindications for the use of massage exercises
Facial massage has contraindications, in the presence of which it is impossible to perform facial gymnastics.
These include:
- skin rash. When performing massage exercises, irritation can be aggravated;
- warts. Being an infectious disease, after gymnastics they may appear in other places. Therefore, before starting the procedures, warts should be removed.
If you have one of these problems, you should postpone the massage until you get rid of them or use various other, perhaps even cosmetic, means of skin restoration and rejuvenation.
Any woman strives to prolong every second of her youth. She fearfully awaits the moment when one day she sees an old woman in the mirror instead of a young girl. But you shouldn’t despair and wait with doom for this moment. Modern medicine has proven that we have a large number of means at our disposal that can slow down the aging process, without surgical intervention. We're talking about a rejuvenating facial massage!
Rejuvenating facial massage: benefits and limitations
You need to add a few drops of essential oil to rose or olive oil, as it is not used in its pure form.
The procedure is not recommended in the morning or immediately after eating, but the stomach should not be empty. In addition, hermits believe that the best time for massage is winter. In their opinion, massage in the summer is strictly prohibited.
Tibetan massage includes the following stages:
- Unlike Chinese, Tibetan massage begins from the bottom up from the neck. Where it goes into the chin you need to gently rub in the oil and pat it a little.
- The next area is the cheeks. We develop them with light pats along three lines. From the center of the face just below the mouth to the ears, parallel to it there are two more lines that connect the corners of the lips with the middle of the ear and the wings of the nose with the top of the ears. Having reached the highest point, we lower all these lines down to the chest.
- Draw lines from the forehead to the hairline, then from the eyebrows to the top of the forehead.
- We draw the same lines from the chin (at the level of the corners of the lips) to the eyebrows.
- Using circular movements, we draw our fingers from the jowls to the inner corners of the eyes, from them, under the eye, we draw a line to the ear and then to the chest through the neck.
- We knead the nose, moving from the wings to the bridge of the nose.
- Drawing light springs, massage around the eyes:
- from the beginning of the eyebrows to the outer corners of the eyes;
- pressing on this point, we lead to the inner corners under the eye;
- along the lower arc we return back again;
- press the skin to the temples (the movement is repeated 2 to 5 times).
We repeat all movements 5–7 times. The massage can be performed daily 3 times a day, as it only takes 10 minutes.

Complications can only happen if you crush any part of your face. This can lead to pain or numbness in the face, so you need to be as careful as possible.
Salon procedure
The above option is usually called lightweight. If you go to a professional, then for him this will only be a warm-up, since among professionals, Tibetan massage is classified as a sculptural type of massage. After warming up the skin, massage therapists begin to “roll” the skin between their fingers, press quite firmly on certain points and squeeze out massage lines. The aggressive stage of pressure and clamps is replaced by a recovery period of relaxation.
My friend followed the advice of her cosmetologist and went for a Tibetan massage to get rid of her double chin and slightly tighten her facial contours. This procedure cannot be called easy, since pain is present throughout the entire procedure. However, she noted that all the massage therapist’s movements were very fast, so after the end of the session the pain went away literally within 3 minutes. The effect was exactly what she wanted to see.
This procedure in the salon will last about an hour. One session costs about 3,000 rubles. Experts recommend a course of 8–12 sessions with breaks of 3–5 days for women under 30, and with a break of 1–2 days for women who have overcome this age threshold. It is advisable to conduct the course every six months.
But the effect will not take long to arrive. After just a few sessions, visible changes appear. Skin color is evened out, wrinkles, as well as circles under the eyes, disappear, facial contours are tightened, and not a trace remains of the double chin.
Tibetan massage: before and after Qigong massage is often poetically called “8 drops of dew”, as it was invented by Taoist monks. A characteristic feature of this massage is that it helps not only in facial rejuvenation, but also in restoring internal energy.
In Chinese, the word "qi" functions in medical terminology as an active substance that is part of any living being.
The rejuvenation process in this technique is achieved through interaction with biologically active points, as a result of which:
- facial muscles are strengthened;
- tension decreases;
- the skin is moisturized.
Preparation
Qigong massage has no restrictions, so it can be done at any time of the day, but experts recommend doing it in the morning after waking up or in the evening before going to bed.
Immediately before the massage, you need to cleanse the skin and then apply cosmetic cream to it. Hands also need to be lubricated with nourishing cream.
Qigong massage must be performed in a relaxed state. The usual meditation pose is suitable for this - the half-lotus position. Breathing should remain even.
The half lotus position is ideal for Qigong massage. Self-massage technique: description and video of how to do Chinese massage for rejuvenation
8 drops of dew, respectively, are carried out in 8 stages:
- We gradually stroke the face, neck and décolleté with our fingers:
- across the entire width of the forehead;
- interbrow area, area around the eyes;
- Warm up the inner points of the eyes using circular movements;
- we stroke the eyelids, gently pressing on the corners of the eyes;
- With our thumbs we smooth the nose area from top to bottom;
- stroke your cheeks from top to bottom;
- smooth the area around the mouth and chin;
- with our right hand we move from the right ear to the left through the chin and vice versa;
- nauonets, smooth out the chin and from there descend into the décolleté area.
- We replace stroking with patting in the same order.
- Using the fingertips of one hand, we stroke the areas of the eyes and lips, then change palms.
- We knead all zones with gentle pressure.
- We continue to knead the skin by pressing first with the entire palm, then with its base, and then with the tubercle of the thumbs, maintaining the order of the zones.
- Smooth the skin with the outer joints.
- Smooth the skin with the same movement, but softer.
- Now you need to turn on your imagination. We visualize golden threads in our hands, and then put one on the chin, two on the forehead, two on each cheek, two more under the chin and one on the neck.
A full procedure involves further work with the torso and feet, after which you need to take a shower.
We repeat the movements 9-10 times on each part of the face. The massage takes from 20 to 30 minutes. 3 sessions per week is quite enough. The entire course includes 10–15 sessions, which can be repeated every six months.

Salon procedure
In this technique, not only physical readiness is of great importance, but also moral attitude, therefore experts note that a Qigong massage session must be carried out in a special atmosphere that would set one in the appropriate mood.
Having visited China, I was able to conclude that the Chinese are sensitive not only to the dexterity of the massage master, but also to his energy. As one respectable old woman told me, a special warmth should emanate from the hands of a master. This is the essence of any Eastern technique. When I attended a massage session, I discovered that this was not enough. The client must also understand the seriousness of what is happening. If there is no contact with the massage therapist, then you will not receive satisfaction from the procedure.
The massage itself is created in accordance with natural harmony, so the massage therapists make all movements smoothly and easily. There should be no pain during the procedure, so it cannot cause any complications.
Some masters practice non-contact techniques, which are based on visualization and work with the human energy biofield. However, this technique still causes some skepticism and is not particularly popular with clients.
A Qigong massage session lasts an hour, its cost ranges from 2,500 to 5,000 rubles. The duration of a salon course is no different from a self-massage course.
Experts promise the effect after the first course of massage, that is, after the first 10–15 sessions. With the help of Qigong massage, you can smooth out facial wrinkles, get rid of small folds and sagging, and restore healthy skin color.
Qigong massage: before and after Massage Yukuko Tanaka
Yukuko Tanaka's massage is focused on working with lymph nodes. According to the Japanese cosmetologist, it is the activation of lymph flow that helps prevent aging and keeps the skin firm and elastic. However, this focus of the technique on the lymph nodes predetermines contraindications for people who have:
- diseases of the lymphatic system;
- ear, nose or throat disease;
- rosacea;
- cold infections;
- rashes and inflammation on the face.
For rejuvenation, women over 40 years old use this massage. It helps them get rid of facial wrinkles and nasolabial folds. 20-30 year old girls can also do this procedure; it preserves youth and eliminates swelling.
Preparation
Before you start self-massage, you need to consult a professional massage therapist or carefully watch the training video. It is necessary to know the exact location of the lymph nodes.
Preparation for the Asahi massage, as the invention of Yukoko Tanaka is also called, is practically no different from previous types. It is necessary to wash your face thoroughly and dry it with a soft towel, then apply fatty oil or nourishing cream. This is very important, as your fingers should glide smoothly over the skin.
It is best to conduct the session in the morning. During the entire procedure, it is necessary to maintain an even posture, so experts advise leaning on a flat surface, and it is best to lie on the floor.
Self-massage technique
This massage, aimed at solving a complex problem, consists of several techniques for a specific problem area plus a basic movement that begins and ends each subsequent stage. Main stages of massage:
- Baseline. With the pads of our fingers we run along the cheeks from the cheeks, going down to the neck, and from there to the collarbones.
- Smooth your forehead. We apply the pads of three fingers to the center of the forehead and move along zigzag lines towards the temples, from there we turn the fingers 90 degrees and draw a circle across the face, bringing the fingers to the collarbones.
- We are working on the nasolabial folds. Using your middle fingers, knead the area next to the wings of your nose. There we perform five rotational movements, and then rise to the cheekbones. It is important to remember about the base line: from the cheekbones we bring our fingers to the ears and from them we reach the collarbones.
- Prevent sagging cheeks. We press our finger on the center of the chin, outline the mouth and move to the points of the eyes from the inside, linger there for three seconds and bring our fingers to the temples. From there again - the baseline.
- We tone the cheeks and lower part of the face. The left palm presses the jaw from the left side, and the right hand moves from the lower point of the jaw to the inner point of the eye. We hold for three seconds, bring it to the temple and complete the line. We repeat the manipulation, only on the other side.
- Prevention of sagging cheeks. We connect our elbows, open our palms and put them to our mouth. We press on the lips, lifting them up to the nose, and cover the cheeks. Hold for three seconds, raise your hands to your temples. The final line.
- Smoothing out the A-zone. The pads of the thumbs are located under the chin, the rest are on the nose. We stretch the skin under pressure and hold for three seconds. Baseline.
Massage should be done daily. We repeat each movement three times. The procedure takes from 7 to 20 minutes, but the first session should not exceed five minutes.
Complications are possible if you squeeze the lymph nodes: pain may appear, the lymph nodes may become inflamed. That is why experts recommend completely avoiding the main points behind the ears, on the back of the head, under the lower jaw and in front of the neck.
A friend of mine, inspired by the achievements of the famous Japanese woman, decided to try this method on herself. At first everything went well, but at some point, after much manipulation, she began to feel the pressure weaker, so she put a little more force into the next movement. As a result, a sharp pain pierced my neck. Subsequently, a massage therapist friend advised her not to self-medicate, since Asahi’s massage requires some professional skill and anatomical knowledge.

Of course, you can master this massage to work on your face yourself, but you need to do it very carefully, without putting a lot of force, since violations in the massage technique can lead to complications. That is why it is recommended to attend 1-2 massage sessions in the salon to understand what sensations during this procedure are correct.
A session with a massage master will last about 20–30 minutes, for which you will have to pay about 2,500 rubles. It is worth noting that Asahi massage should be performed as often as possible.

This massage technique is based on the execution of targeted blows, which requires not only accuracy, but also strict adherence to the rules and the accepted sequence of techniques. You should not experiment on your own without precise knowledge and skills in this area - each of the points on the face has a certain activity, and there is no need to stimulate them all.
Japanese rejuvenating facial massage acts on deeper structures, and, therefore, allows you to expect a much more pronounced effect.
Before performing a rejuvenating facial massage, the surface of the skin must be warmed up. With warm hands, gently rub it until it turns red, then begin massage techniques. Each of them must be repeated 35-37 times:
- Press your open palms to your ears so that your fingers touch at the back of your head. Perform light but noticeable targeted blows to the back of the head.
- Using your thumbs or index fingers, lightly tap the points located above your earlobes.
- To perform the following technique, you only need to use one hand. Place your index finger on the point located between the eyebrows, place the middle and thumb on the active points that are located in the inner corners of the eyes. Then use soft, smooth movements, moving in a spiral towards the outer corners.
- You need to complete the rejuvenation session as follows: place your palms to your temples, place your fingers on top of your head, gently tap and stroke the scalp.
Several sessions of such a massage can rejuvenate the skin of the face, although not by 10 years, but still quite noticeably. In the process, facial muscles are strengthened, the skin is tightened, and manipulations have a positive effect on the condition of the hair. In this version, unlike the classic one, the effect affects not only the surface of the skin, but also its deeper layers. The result will therefore not only be more noticeable, but will also last much longer. The longer this massage is used, the more noticeably the oval of the face is tightened, problematic folds and facial wrinkles are reduced, and the skin of the eyelids regains its former elasticity.

When it is carried out, the oval of the face is noticeably tightened, swelling is removed, excess fluid is removed from the tissues, and the elasticity and firmness of the skin increases. The anti-aging effect helps you look ten times better than before, without requiring large financial costs. The idea behind this method is to target the lymphatic system and fatty tissue without affecting the muscles and blood vessels.
It is worth noting that mastering the French method will require some knowledge, as well as a certain talent. Mastering it is not as easy as it might seem. This rejuvenation procedure is carried out in massage rooms, but at home in front of a mirror you may not get the effect you want to expect.

It is impossible to fight over time, and one way or another, signs of age will be visible. But to some extent, you can maintain your attractiveness by stopping the aging process with the help of various rejuvenating massages. When a woman’s age passes a certain point, the skin is always the first to suffer. This is characterized by the appearance of wrinkles, distortion of the oval of the face, loss of skin color and its elasticity. This can be explained by a significant slowdown in important processes for the face - metabolic and regenerative. Although this is not the only reason why women choose facial massage for wrinkles in the salon. Many do this with an eye to the future, since such a procedure is no less effective as a preventive measure.
Since there are quite a lot of techniques themselves, regardless of whether the procedure is performed at home or an appointment was made at the salon, there is always a choice of a specific technique or several types of it. In addition to the usual manual influences, the use of improvised means is encouraged in this procedure - the same towels, spoons, massagers. The point of this procedure is to make the blood move better, which will improve the health of skin cells; the exercises are also aimed at strengthening muscle tissue and improving lymph flow.
The effectiveness of a massage is influenced, to a lesser extent, by the correctness of its implementation and, to a greater extent, by knowledge of anatomy, otherwise it will be very difficult to find important lymph nodes and all facial muscles.
Indications and contraindications
You need to understand that the prerequisites for performing a rejuvenating facial massage are, first of all, age-related changes, in particular, sagging skin, wrinkles, including facial wrinkles, the presence of a double chin, the presence of signs of fatigue on the face, unhealthy complexion, high tension muscles, swelling, lack of elasticity, etc. But even if one or more signs from the list are present, this procedure cannot be performed if the patient has:
- The presence of a large number of warts, however, they can be removed before the procedure, otherwise they are quite easy to injure;
- An open wound, or several such injuries, but they can also be healed;
- Inflammatory processes, which include pimples, ulcers, blackheads. Herpes can also be included in this category.
- The presence of large moles, but they can be removed fairly quickly. They pose a much greater danger than the mentioned warts, since their damage can lead to cancer.
- A disease such as hemophilia, but this is not a mandatory factor for a ban, since an experienced specialist can safely perform the procedure. The ban applies more to home massage.
As for the effect of the procedure, if everything is done correctly, the skin will become cleansed, the tissues will be better supplied with blood, the muscles will regain their former tone, the cells will begin to actively regenerate, all problems with lymphatic drainage will disappear, and metabolic processes will be stimulated. If we consider cosmetic changes in particular, then the alignment of the skin texture will immediately become noticeable, its color will improve, its condition will generally become more youthful, in addition, the skin’s firmness and elasticity will be felt. You must understand that after the procedure, not only the face, but also the entire body as a whole will improve, since there are points on the face, with a certain impact on which the work of other organs begins to improve.
Doing it at home
There are many effective massage techniques, some of which are suitable for home use.
As a preparation, you should cleanse your face in any way possible, after which you can start applying nourishing oil, but if you don’t have it on hand, olive oil will do just fine. This procedure involves sliding your hand over the skin, rather than some strong massaging movements.
First up is the mouth. After it is wide open, you need to perform massaging movements in a circle, starting from the middle of the mouth and ending with the temples. Then you can move on to the cheeks. They remain relaxed, but the jaw should be clenched. You need to work with the pads of your fingers, and you need to move along the entire surface of the cheeks, always starting from the corner of the mouth. As for the nose, you also need to start from the corners and move towards the tip with spiral movements. When the fingers are at the base, the same movements must be repeated, moving along the nose to the eyes. The eyes themselves begin to massage at the bridge of the nose. You need to work, as before, with pads. Make circles around the eyes. After several such circles, the area at the outer corner of the eye is fixed for a couple of seconds, and then the movements continue. Approximately the same thing needs to be repeated, capturing the bone contour. If there is an existing problem with swelling, you need to focus on this area. The forehead is also massaged in a circle, starting from the middle and moving to the temples. The complex ends with patting the chin with the back of the hand, and only then the cheeks. From the forehead you need to follow down, and from the middle of the face to the side area, and the movements here should resemble patting. The end of the procedure is marked by “sculpting” the face with the palm, but all areas must be covered.
How long should you perform a rejuvenating facial massage at home? It will be enough to do it twice a day, with a set course of 5–10 procedures. Only a specialist can more accurately name the number of procedures, determine the timing, and choose the desired type of massage.
Various rejuvenation techniques
You need to start first of all from which area on the face needs massage; you also need to take into account the problem that needs to be solved. There are procedures exclusively against wrinkles, there are those that help rejuvenate the skin, there are facial massages and so on. The following types of procedures can be distinguished separately:
- If you need to find a facial massage against nasolabial folds, then various variations of anti-wrinkle massage are suitable for this. You should choose the one where there are Carol Maggio exercises. The point is to give a load to the lips - you will need to open your mouth with your lips pressed to your teeth, act on the folds themselves, and so on.
- As for the Japanese Shiatsu massage, it is quite complex, since you need to know the location of the points on the face and their purpose. Being able to find them is also a talent that not everyone has.
- Aggressive procedures include Asahi osteopathic massage, which includes stroking and zigzag-like movements. Each movement is performed with sufficient effort.
- The problems of oily skin, acne, and other consequences of adolescence are perfectly combated by Jacquet's massage, which is based on the plucking technique. The procedure is intense and the effects are very strong, and you need to know about this in advance.
