Myofascial Face Lifting – Facial rejuvenation

Myofascial Face Lifting Massage is a manual massage treatment targeting the facial fascia that surrounds and supports facial muscles. Manually manipulating the fascia by specific massage techniques increases elastin production, blood circulation, lifts muscles and releases tension leading to a more youthful appearance, an improved skin quality and sculpted contours.

Fascia is a network of connective tissue supported by collagen and elastin fibres acting as a three-dimensional web and providing support and enabling movements. Facial fascia consists of two main types: superficial and deep fascia. Superficial fascia is located closer to the skin, contours and supports the skin. Physical and psychological impact can cause tension in fascia, adhesion and restrictions in blood flow and lymph circulation.

Stimulating the fascia by the right stretching and pulling movements increases elastin and hyaluronic acid production. Hyaluronic acid is a key component of the extracellular matrix that is capable of binding over one thousand times its own weight in water, hydrating skin, plumping and smoothing by filling up lines and wrinkles. Elastin production increases the skin's elasticity that keeps our skin smooth and prevents sagging, making elastin a cornerstone of youthful skin.
