The most powerful and effective rejuvenating massage- this is sculptural. A special technique in the skillful hands of a professional turns into a kind of panacea for age-related manifestations on the skin of the face. Initially, this massage was developed for use by patients after strokes and was intended to transform the face after paralysis (remove distortions, drooping corners of the mouth or eyes). Subsequently, the technique was adapted for cosmetic purposes, and for a long time has been successfully used not only by professional massage therapists, but also by cosmetologists. Sculptural facial massage includes several blocks that follow one after another, in a clear sequence:
- We influence the neuroreceptor system, performing a superficial massage;
- We provide lymphatic drainage with deeper and stronger movements;
- Alternately, we act on the facial muscles - first we relax them, then we tone them;
- We spend a facial massage;
- If necessary, a massage is performed around the eyes;
- In the end, additional lifting techniques are applied with the use of cosmetic products.
The main features of massage
The founder of sculptural massage isJoelle Ciocco. She was the one who developed and tested the technique of this cosmetic procedure using high pressure during deep massage of the face, neck and décolleté area. Massage using the Joelle Ciocco technique is a deep treatment of the muscles of the face and neck. The cosmetologist tones the muscles, works on the fascia of the face and skull (strengthens them), focuses on the projection points of the vessels to improve blood circulation and conduct lymphatic drainage. After such a procedure, the facial muscles ache, as after good physical exercise. But the effect of the sculptural massage is simply amazing: sagging muscles and skin in the cheek area are tightened, transverse and longitudinal wrinkles of the forehead are smoothed out, the skin acquires a healthy and fresh look. During the massage, the cosmetologist pays more attention to the inactive muscles - they are the main problem in the aging process. Since the massage technique is aimed at a deep effect on the muscles, it helps to relieve swelling. The skin of the face will acquire a pleasant pinkish tint, dark circles under the eyes will disappear and even nasolabial folds will be smoothed out. Usually, massage using the Siocco technique is carried out in a course, but not less than 12 procedures. The cosmetologist begins working with the décolleté area, then moves up to the neck and lastly works on the face. Having reached the forehead, the specialist begins the “reverse journey”, returning to the décolleté area and the back of the neck and shoulders.
When to start doing sculptural massage?
Sculptural facial massage can be done not onlyfor therapeutic purposes, but also for preventive purposes - the skin is constantly in tone, blood circulation and microcirculation are normal, all facial muscles work as usual, and those that are not working begin to train. It makes sense to start doing massage procedures after 25-30 years. But here everything depends on the woman's predisposition to wrinkles - after all, take a closer look, there are ladies who even at 50 years old have a hard time finding at least nasolabial folds (and they are among the first to appear), and there are women at 40 years old with deep manifestations of skin aging. This depends on many reasons, including ecology, the woman's neuropsychic state, heredity. But we are women and, therefore, always want to look perfect. And sculptural massage is almost the only way to transform yourself and avoid surgical intervention in the form of expensive, not always effective and, let's face it, sometimes unsafe plastic surgeries.
