The round and chubby face can be a source of frustration for many women. While we cannot change the bone structure of our face, we can eliminate the subcutaneous fat in our cheeks through massage techniques that target specific pressure points. Now, let me teach you a technique for toning your chubby face, so that you can feel confident and prevent wrinkles!
Method: The simplest way is to exercise the muscles by making various facial expressions. For example, opening your mouth wide or tightly closing your lips. After the age of 25, the skin cannot bear the burden of excess muscle, so it is necessary to use supplementary techniques to prevent muscle sagging. This can also help prevent wrinkles.
1. Pinch the excess fat on the cheeks:
After applying massage cream, use your fingers to vertically pull and stretch the excess fat on the cheekbones, pulling it outwards. Then slowly move the position downwards until you reach the sides of the nose. Hold each movement for about 5 seconds and continue for 1 minute.
2. Smooth out the wrinkles in the nasolabial folds:
Place both hands on your cheeks and focus on smoothing out the wrinkles in the nasolabial folds (fine lines around the sides of the nose). Use horizontal pressure to pull the skin outwards. Use the palms of your hands to push from the inside to the outer contour for about 2-3 seconds. Repeat for 1 minute.
3. Lift the sagging cheeks:
After applying massage cream, gently rub the skin with your fingertips, facing inward. Start from the cheekbone area and push and lift upwards in a rubbing motion. Perform each movement slowly and continue for 1 minute.
4. Tap the cheekbones with your fingertips:
Finally, tap the cheekbones with your fingertips along the eye sockets. You will feel refreshed when you reach the temples. After the massage, apply a mixture of toner and moisturizer evenly to complete the process.
Unlike regular massage, facial slimming massage requires the application of a slimming cream before pressing the pressure points and performing the massage. Here are the steps:
1. Apply the slimming cream to relax the facial muscles. Massage from the chin to the sides of the ears, then massage outward from the center of the forehead. For the area around the eyes, use a rotating massage from the nose to the sides of the eyes.
2. Apply pressure to the hollow of the collarbone to stimulate the lymphatic system. If your nails are too long, use the pads of your fingers to press and hold the hollow of the collarbone for 3 seconds, then release. Repeat this 3 times.
3. Use your thumbs to lift the hollows on both sides of the chin. Support the weight of your head with your thumbs, lifting it up. Hold each movement for 3 seconds and repeat 3 times.
4. Press the hollows on the chin upward. Press upwards along the contours of the face, gradually defining the facial lines. Avoid poking the hollows on the chin too forcefully. Repeat 3 times, holding each movement for 3 seconds.
5. Gently stroke from the chin to the sides of the ears. From the chin to the back of the earlobes, then from the sides of the nose to the hollows below the cheekbones, and finally back to the ears. Smoothly massage back and forth for 10 repetitions.
6. Massage the forehead. Use the index, middle, and ring fingers to gently massage the forehead horizontally. Repeat 10 times to relax the forehead.
7. Press down on the inner corners of the eyes with your thumbs. Firmly press down on the inner corners of the eyes to tighten the muscles around the eyelids. Keep the eyes relaxed. Repeat 3 times, holding each movement for 3 seconds.
8. Gently press from the inner corners to the outer corners of the eyes. Firmly press the skin under the eyes, following the bone line. Press from the inner corners to the outer corners of the eyes. Repeat 3 times, holding each movement for 3 seconds.
9. Massage the eyelids along the brow bones. Use your index fingers to gently press along the upper edge of the eye sockets, massaging towards the outer corners of the eyes. Repeat 3 times, holding each movement for 3 seconds.
