Do you want to give your skin a natural lift and reduce tension in your face? Discover Buccal Massage, an exclusive and deep treatment that goes beyond traditional facial massages. This innovative technique is a favorite among beauty experts and celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Meghan Markle, and Margot Robbie due to its unique approach and impressive results.
What is a buccal massage?
Buccal massage is a unique facial massage that treats both the superficial and deep muscles of the face, including the inside of the mouth. This technique loosens tense muscles, stimulates blood circulation, and improves skin texture, resulting in a fresh and youthful appearance.
Who is a buccal massage suitable for?
Buccal facial massage is ideal for anyone who wants a firmer, healthier appearance. The treatment is effective for:
- Tired or tense facial muscles
- Sagging cheeks or jawline
- Dry or dull skin
Benefits and results of buccal massage: before and after
- Improved blood circulation: Your skin gets a healthy, natural glow.
- Reduce tension: Ideal for complaints such as teeth grinding or jaw tension.
- Skin firming: Helps define the jawline and lift the cheeks.
- Natural detox: Promotes the removal of waste products in the face.
- Unique relaxation: The treatment feels like a mix of relaxation and active stimulation.
The treatment + costs
The buccal massage is fully tailored to your face and needs. Our specialists ensure you feel comfortable, so you can optimally enjoy the treatment. Due to the focus on the inside of the mouth, it may feel a bit awkward at first, but many clients find it surprisingly pleasant and relaxing.
During a buccal massage:
- The deeper muscles of the face and mouth muscles are massaged
- Tension in the jaw, cheeks, and neck is reduced
- Blood circulation in the skin and tissue is stimulated
- Any scars and imperfections in the face are treated
A session usually lasts 20 minutes and costs €65.
You can book the buccal massage separately or as an add-on to your treatment. For an ultimate facelift.
Pre- and Post-Care for Buccal Massage
Before the Treatment
- Cleanse your face thoroughly for an optimal massage.
- Drink plenty of water to help flush out toxins more quickly.
- Avoid intensive sun exposure just before the treatment.
Immediately After the Treatment
- Your face may temporarily feel red or sensitive; this is normal.
- Drink plenty of water to enhance the effect of the massage.
- Avoid heavy makeup or skin products that may irritate the skin.
Aftercare in the First Week
- Protect your skin with SPF when exposed to the sun.
- Use mild skincare and allow your skin to recover from the massage.
How often should you get a buccal massage?
The frequency of a buccal massage depends on your goals and skin condition. For a fresh appearance and general maintenance, one treatment every 4 to 6 weeks is usually sufficient. However, if you want to achieve more intensive results, such as strengthening the skin structure or reducing muscle tension, it is often recommended to start with a course of weekly sessions for 4 to 8 weeks. After that, the treatment can be reduced to bi-weekly or monthly maintenance sessions to preserve the achieved results.
