Self-Massage and Activation of Youth Points
Before starting self-massage and activation of the youth points, cleanse the skin, use a toner, and apply a moisturizing or nourishing cream. Perform a light facial massage along massage lines. Make sure your fingers glide smoothly over the skin with light pressure. The skin should not be stretched.
Then begin acupressure massage using the pads of your index fingers. Do not stretch the skin; it is enough to press the soft tissues under the skin against the cranial bones. This affects nerve endings and stimulates the facial muscles, giving them a gentle workout.
To ensure correct identification of the points, you should feel them properly. The youth points are located in small hollows on the bones, and when pressed, you should feel a slight aching sensation or warmth, but not discomfort. Press for 5–10 seconds (start with 5 seconds). Paired points are activated simultaneously.
Start with the inner corners of the eyes, applying noticeable pressure. If you have long nails, you can press using the joints of your index fingers (between the first and second phalanges).
This massage is especially effective for improving the area around the eyes. Gradually, dark circles and puffiness under the eyes will disappear, sagging skin around the eyes and mouth will tighten, and the facial contour will improve.
In just 3 minutes, you will get a burst of energy for the whole day, so it is better to stimulate the youth points on the face in the morning.
