Facial gua sha has become a popular facial technique to naturally stimulate blood circulation and lymphatic drainage for tired or congested skin. It can be used for lifting and sculpting, relaxing tight muscles that contribute to fine lines (like brows furrows), and for de-puffing under-eyes and cheeks. It’s also helpful for jaw tension, seasonal allergies, and sinus congestion. Gua sha really is a game changer when it comes to the health and appearance of your skin. There is a reason that it has become such a huge trend over the last couple of years, and that’s because it works, both immediately and long-term. Gua sha has the most incredible effect on the microcirculation, the system just underneath the skin that transports oxygen and nutrients to the blood and remove toxins. Studies have shown that gua sha increases microcirculation by 400%, flooding the skin with fresh nutrients. Over time, this increases levels of both collagen and elastin. Done regularly, gua sha smooths, lifts, plumps and contours the skin, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
