Banks for vacuum facial massage, rubber, silicone, anti-allergenic rubber. Which is better, how to use

Cups designed for vacuum facial massage are used as one of the methods to improve the condition of the skin. They are easy to use and are sold in every pharmacy. It is important to choose the size and material of the cans that are suitable for the specific area in order to get a positive result. When mastering massage techniques, it is permissible to do it at home.

The benefits and harms of vacuum facial massage

Cans for a vacuum facial massage act on the muscles by creating a vacuum inside the device. It is formed during the suction of air from the can. In this case, the skin is pulled inward when the can is applied to its surface. The therapeutic effect is achieved due to the difference between the pressure inside the can and on the skin.

The massage has several positive aspects:

• more blood flows to the skin, and this helps to improve its elasticity;
• facial muscles become elastic;
• the second chin and dark circles around the eyes disappear;
• the complexion is refreshed;
• the layer of deposits under the skin decreases;
• muscle relaxation occurs, which contributes to the disappearance of small wrinkles and facial folds. Crow's feet, puppet wrinkles and purse-string wrinkles will disappear;
  
• skin irritation disappears;
• more collagen and elastin are produced in the cells;
• skin cells are freed from harmful substances;
• the pores become noticeably narrower.

In addition to the cosmetic effect, such a massage is therapeutic. The condition of the skin becomes much better. The vessels also function in a different way, metabolism in cells is carried out.

The massage has a positive effect on the skin:

• facial muscles are visibly relaxed, thereby reducing deep wrinkles;
• lymphatic metabolism becomes better: there is an outflow of lymph and venous blood. Due to this, toxins are removed from the skin, which makes the skin younger, and also puffiness is removed, especially in the area under the eyes;
• more blood flows to the skin.

This massage injures the skin in its deepest layers. Outwardly, they are not visible to the eye. An additional network of capillaries is created. This helps to increase blood flow and the flow of oxygen and nutrients in the form of vitamins and minerals.

Despite all the positive aspects, massage can be harmful:

• the appearance of puffiness and bruising;
• the occurrence of acne;
  
• the appearance of stretch marks is the most unpleasant consequence.

These effects occur only when the cans are used incorrectly. If you follow all the recommendations and rules of massage technique, then there will be no such consequences. The massage is recommended for women who have crossed the thirty-year mark, as well as for skin laxity, sweating and deterioration in color.

Skin massage is also performed for:

• swelling;
• dryness and flaking;
• the presence of gloss.

• oncology;
• any vascular diseases of the skin;
• pregnancy;
• infectious diseases;
• heart pathology;
• during the acute form of chronic diseases;
• blood clotting poorly;

Almond oil will also work. It is hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic.

It is also possible to use sesame, walnut, apricot kernel oil. However, it is important to take into account the type of skin, as the listed oils strongly clog the pores.

Black seed oil is one of the best oils for skin. However, it is heavy and is best diluted with other light oils (rose hip, borage, hemp, grape seed). For better results, esters are added to the oil.

Technique for performing static massage

Cupping massage can be static or dynamic. The first works out point-specific areas: chin, nasolabial folds, etc. It is possible to use several zones at once. The most important rule of the session is that the banks should not be placed very close to each other so that the skin does not stretch too much. This will lead to the formation of wrinkles in the treated areas.

Stages of the massage:

1. Take a jar of the required size, press on its tip and place it on the required area.
2. Hold for a few seconds.
3. Press down on the tip and remove the can.

At first, the jar is kept for 5 seconds. Then, the exposure time is gradually increased to 30 seconds. It is necessary to control the pressure inside the can. The skin should be absorbed into the jar by a few millimeters. Static massage is usually applied to larger areas such as the cheeks, forehead and chin.

How to do dynamic massage

The essence of the dynamic view is the movement of the can. Sliding must be done easily and quickly along the lines. It is also necessary to control so that there is no excessive stretching of the skin and no folds. This effect is much softer and therefore there will be less bruising and smudges.

Then the cheekbones are massaged from the corners of the lips to the temples. Next, the cheeks are worked out from the nose to the temples. Finish the massage on the chin, which is worked out in a circular motion.
