Face massages have broken away as their own entity and recently, we’ve noticed a rise in face gyms and buccal massage. While these are two very different things, they both focus on the health of your skin.

When we started seeing face gyms popping up everywhere, we knew the face massage trend was here to stay.

The first thing you should know is that a face gym is not a gym for your face. Face gyms actually offer fitness classes that focus on facial exercises. The goal is to build up muscles in your face that will help with movement, expression, and overall appearance.

And now we’ve noticed a rise in buccal massage—which is exactly what it sounds like. It’s a facial treatment that uses pressure points on your mouth to help you achieve a more youthful look.

Buccal massage is another type of facial massage that focuses on the mouth area. It’s designed to help with wrinkles and sagging skin around the mouth area—while also giving you better-looking lips!

Buccal massage focuses on face massage with hands, either by an esthetician or as part o your daily routine. If on your own, apply firm pressure to various parts of your face to stimulate circulation. In addition, it helps remove dead skin cells from your pores.

It’s an all-natural way to get rid of wrinkles and lines on your face—without surgery or injections! Apply natural oils to your lips and massaging them gently, which stimulates blood flow and improves elasticity in the skin. The result? A firmer, more youthful appearance.

The most common areas for buccal massages are around the eyes and mouth, but there are other areas. Try massaging your forehead or temples with both hands at once!
