What is less known is facial cupping. This technique is becoming increasingly popular and is a way to address fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging.
Cupping is a form of massage
Facial cupping is a type of massage therapy that uses small cups placed on the face. The cups create a vacuum-like suction on the skin, which helps stimulate the circulation of blood and lymphatic fluid. This can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Cupping stimulates the production of elastin and collagen. It also improves skin structure and can even address acne. The massage can also help reduce puffiness and tension in the face.
Cupping by means of suction
The massage itself is gentle and relaxing. It should never be painful or uncomfortable. The cups are usually made of silicone, glass, or even bamboo, and they come in various sizes for different parts of the face. To apply the cup, you place it on the skin and apply light pressure to hold it in place. The suction should be strong enough to create a light pulling sensation, but not so strong that it is uncomfortable.
Reduce wrinkles without injections
One of the benefits of facial cupping is that it is non-invasive and involves no needles or other injections. This makes it a great option for those who are uncomfortable with the idea of fillers.
Cupping is an inexpensive way to combat wrinkles
Facial cupping is a very affordable method to combat fine lines and wrinkles. Facial cupping can be performed by yourself or can be done during a total facial treatment as part of a facial rejuvenating treatment. For best results, it should be done at least once or twice a week. It can also be combined with other treatments such as microdermabrasion or chemical peels.
