Do you wake up in the morning with a swollen face?
The lying position while sleeping causes excess fluids to accumulate on the face, making the face appear puffy, the eyes tired and giving the skin an unhealthy appearance.
Stress, lack of sleep, alcohol consumption, very salty foods and smoking are among the main causes of fluid accumulation that causes a puffy face.
Puffy face: how to prevent it?
There is no secret recipe, but here are 4 tips to prevent facial swelling :
1. Rest. Sleep at least 7-8 hours a night. This is the time our body needs to rest and regenerate. Your skin will also benefit!
2. Hydrate. Drink at least 2 liters of water a day. Water is essential for our body and drinking the right amount also helps to combat blemishes such as cellulite and a puffy face. If you can't, you can also drink tasty herbal teas, which help you stay hydrated.
3. Stop smoking. Avoid smoking, at least before going to sleep: smoking stresses the skin and reduces tissue oxygenation, which is essential for having bright and healthy skin.
4. Evening Skincare . Skincare is important, especially at the end of the day. Removing makeup and residues of smog and pollution that accumulate on the skin helps you have healthy skin free of imperfections.
You can take advantage of your evening skincare routine for a draining facial massage : it reduces fluid retention and combats swelling.
Swollen face: here is lymphatic drainage
Lymphatic drainage facial massage is a particular facial self-massage technique : the movements performed allow you to stimulate lymphatic circulation and eliminate excess fluids that accumulate on the face.
Facial lymphatic drainage is suitable for everyone , I particularly recommend it to those who spend many hours at the computer : the often incorrect position, the often frowning eyes can lead to a swollen face, bags and dark circles and - last but not least - expression wrinkles.
With facial lymphatic drainage , we drain excess fluids, reduce puffiness , bags and dark circles , relax expression muscles and relieve stress for an intensely relaxing treatment .
In the video at the beginning of the article, we discover together how to do a draining facial self-massage , together with our coach Rossella.
Self-massage of the face stimulates lymphatic drainage and improves skin microcirculation, stimulating the production of elastin and collagen, capable of making the skin more elastic and luminous.
This self-massage of the face also helps prevent facial wrinkles because it relieves muscle tension that typically accumulates in the face with emotions such as anxiety or stress.
