Facial Massage Anti-Wrinkle Treatment

If you want to get rid of wrinkles, it’s good idea to do facial massage.Massage is  a very simple and non-invasive method to get rid of wrinkles on the face. It is a very interesting and easy procedure to learn

 The first step is apply a thin coating of anti-wrinkle lotion to the treatment area. Most facial massagers include an appropriate lotion, but you may also use other water-soluble, anti-wrinkle lotions.

  Use your thumbs and index fingers to pinch the jaw line with a suction motion. Work from the centre to the edge of your face. Pinching the jaw line will get blood and nutrients to that area of the face. Finish by stroking the forehead and the whole of the face.

  With your fingers together and hands pointing up to your brow, holding the fingers straight, press firmly with the edge of your hands either side of your nose.

  Pinching your eyebrows will relieve tension and reduce puffiness and congestion. Use your ring fingers to press the area beneath the eyes. Breathe out every time you press down.

  Close your eyes and, with the fingers together and using the whole of both hands slightly cupped to produce a gentle suction, apply a firm pressure to the face, holding for a second before releasing. Then, moving the hands outwards from the nose towards the ears, cover the whole face, moving the hands up and down to cover the area between the chin and hairline.

  With your fingers together and using the whole of the hand, apply pressure with the right hand to the left side of the neck, working from the base of the neck to the jaw but avoiding the windpipe. Repeat with the left hand, applying pressure to the right side of the neck.

Formation Of Wrinkles

Many factors play into the formation of wrinkles. From your diet, lifestyle, health, and genetics each play some part in the formation of wrinkles on your body. A healthy diet may slow wrinkle formation but artificial preservatives and many medications can offset this healthy diet and speed up the formation of wrinkles. As people get older their skin loses elasticity and becomes drier and tends to become thinner. This makes the skin pull along muscles and that creates lines that look like wrinkles and eventually form wrinkles. Many wrinkle creams are made to try an offset the creation of wrinkles.

Many wrinkle creams or anti aging creams contain Vitamin A or retinol, this vitamin gives the body antioxidants that will go after free radical cells in the body such as certain oxygen molecules that induce wrinkling. Another common ingredient in most anti wrinkling creams is some form of Hydroxy acids. These Hydroxy acids replenish the living skin and get rid of the top layer of dead skin. Coenzymes are also common in most wrinkle creams because they help maintain energy in skin cells which allow the skin cells to replenish faster and maintain a young smooth growth.

To keep the skin healthy and replenishing fast certain other minerals and vitamins are needed such as Copper peptides, and Kinetin both of which are other common ingredients in most wrinkle creams. Copper is naturally found in all animal cells and its main purpose is to help in healing wounds or damaged skin, with wrinkle cream there is an increased supplement of copper which allows for a wider area of cells to be affected and healed. Kinetin is a chemical commonly found in plants and its purpose in wrinkle creams is to increase the amount of moisture held by the skin. The more moisturized the skin is the less chance of it drying out and becoming thinner. You must maintain a healthy diet and limit UV exposure to increase the effectiveness of the anti wrinkle creams.
