This Japanese Facial Massage Can Get Rid Of Wrinkles And Swelling In Just 5 Minutes A Day (Supermodels Swear by It)

Sep 02, 2018

Known as the Japanese Asahi massage, this popular technique is able to slow down aging and reduce swelling. Videos of the facial massage have already received millions of views. In recent months, it has even become popular with supermodels like Natalia Vodianova. By incorporating this facial massage into your daily routine, you can reduce the signs of aging. 

This easy massage starts to work quickly. In just two or three weeks, it will start to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. It can also reduce the appearance of bags underneath your eyes. 

For this massage to work best, you should wash your face and hands with an antiseptic. You should use a natural cream or oil to reduce the amount of friction on your skin. This massage is not good for people who have rashes, the flu, colds, lymphatic system disorders or damaged skin. 

When you do the massage, you should feel some pressure from your fingers. It should not be enough pressure to make you feel uncomfortable. Reduce the pressure on areas where you have lymph nodes like underneath your jaw, your ears and your neck. 

Do each movement in the massage three times. If it is a problem area, you can do the movement four or five times. Do the Asahi massage each day at the same time to achieve the best results. 

The Basic Movements 

Use both hands and press your fingers beneath your temples. This is the area close to the upper edge of your ears. Then, slide your fingers down toward your clavicles using a slight pressure. This motion helps to get your lymphatic fluid flowing. Do this three times at the start of your session. You should also do it at the end of each separate movement.

Focus On The Eyes 

The next movement is the area around your eyes. Using the pads of the middle fingers, press on the outer corner of your eyes. Keep this pressure as you slide your fingers beneath your eyelids and toward the inner corner of your eyes. 

After a brief pause, slide your fingers up in an arc underneath your eyebrows. Then, return your fingers to the outer corners of your eyes. 

Now, move your fingers from the outer corners to the inner corners of your eyes again. 

The Forehead 

Use the pads of your middle, index and ring fingers. Press in the center of your forehead. With a zigzag motion, move your fingers from the center of your forehead over to your temples.

Do each of these steps three or four times before ending with the basic movement. 

Place both hands next to your chin. Press three of your fingers to the center of your chin before sliding them in a half-circle in the direction of your upper lip.

Press into the pads of the middle fingers around the sides of the nose. Move your fingers in a half-circle toward the arch of your nose before moving your fingers back.

Put your hands on your chin. Use three fingers on the center of your chin and maintain the pressure. Move your hands to the inner corners of your eyes without touching the lips. 

Move the fingers from the inner corners of your eyes to your temples. 

Face Oval

Meanwhile, slide the right hand from the outer, right side of the jaw to just below the inner corner of your eye. 

Move your fingers from the outer corner of your eye to your temple. Then, do the basic movement with just one hand on the right section of your face. 

Using the right hand, press against the right portion of your jaw. Use the left hand to do the previous movements on the left portion of your face. 

Your Cheeks

Put your hands on either side of your nose. Use three fingers to apply pressure. 

Move your fingers along the ridge of your cheekbones toward the temples. 

Place your wrists together with the palms kept apart. 

Push the pads of the palms into your lips and chin so that your cheeks are raised up.

Your Chin

Your A-Zone
