Eight Steps of Massage to Smooth Skin Wrinkles
Massage increases skin and muscle elasticity, improves local blood circulation, enhances skin luster, and smooths wrinkles—simple yet effective. “Time leaves no trace” requires daily persistence. Use the ring finger generally; only use the middle finger for targeted stimulation.
Step 1: Pressing the Bright Forehead
The forehead is most prone to wrinkles.
Begin by moving from bottom to top, then from inner to outer, finally gliding fingers from hairline to temples. Press firmly on the temple beauty point. A slight pain is typical, helping locate it.
Step 2: Gently Caressing the Delicate Eyes
The skin around the eyes is most susceptible to wrinkles and puffiness. Once loose, it’s hard to return to original state.
Preventing fine wrinkles around eyes: Use the fingertip of the middle finger to glide from inner to outer corner of the lower eyelid with moderate pressure. Return lightly. Repeat 3 times. Same technique applies to upper eyelid.
Preventing fine wrinkles at corners of eyes: Press from outer corner toward temples, both sides simultaneously, 10 times. Lift slightly upward during pressure.
Step 3: Reverse Rubbing the Sharp Nose
The bridge of the nose and between the eyes is prone to horizontal wrinkles. To stretch the nasal bridge, massage upward. Finally, pinch both sides of the nose and press.
Also, decisively break the habit of wrinkling your nose!
Step 4: Circling the Peach Cheeks
Move fingers upward in a circular motion. Start from jaw to below the ear, then from mouth corners to center of ear, next from nose area to temples, then sequentially massage the lower cheeks—3 cm below eyes, 1 cm beside nose, and jawline.
Step 5: Smiling Upward the Cherry Lips
Due to chewing, speaking, and laughing, the corners of the mouth easily dry out and wrinkle. Prevent drooping.
While massaging, lift the corners of the mouth. Use the middle finger to press the philtrum, other fingers hanging down to press the sides of the mouth and outer jawline.
