What are the methods to eliminate facial swelling

Speaking of edema, many people have experienced this phenomenon, especially when you just wake up in the morning, you will feel that your face is swollen, and even feel that your face is much bigger than usual, and you feel completely listless. There are many reasons for edema, such as staying up late and getting less sleep, eating too much salt, lack of potassium in the body, etc. Now let’s talk about what are the reasons for the occurrence and elimination of facial edema.

1. Massage the jaw joint

practice:

Before meals, you can massage your jaw joint. Open your hands, put your thumb and index finger together, and put your middle finger, ring finger and little finger together. Place the space between the middle finger and index finger under your ear. Open your mouth and gently rub your cheeks upwards. Then close your mouth and gently rub and massage your jaw from top to bottom. Do this back and forth 10 times.

principle:

Massage can open up the facial meridians, promote blood flow, and expel toxins, which is very helpful in eliminating facial swelling.

2. Alternate hot and cold compresses on your face

practice:

First apply a hot towel to your face, then apply a cold compress, and repeat 3 times. The time for hot and cold compresses on the face should be allocated in a ratio of 1:2, and should be applied for at least 15 minutes.

principle:

Applying alternating hot and cold facial compresses can cause blood vessels to contract, expand, and then contract again, promoting blood circulation in the skin and promoting the discharge of excess moisture from the face.

Notice:

The temperature of the hot towel should be controlled well and not too hot.

3. Drink black coffee

practice:

After breakfast, drink a cup of pure black coffee. After about 30 minutes to 1 hour, you will see that the swelling on your face has disappeared.

principle:

The caffeine contained in black coffee has the effect of drainage and diuresis, and accelerates the consumption of body calories, so it can quickly eliminate facial swelling, especially eye swelling.

4. Carbonated facial wash

practice:

Wash your face with a cleanser containing carbonic acid.

principle:

Washing your face with a facial cleanser containing carbonic acid can promote blood circulation in the skin in the morning, supply the skin with fresh oxygen, and metabolize old waste substances in the skin after a night's sleep, thereby improving puffiness, roughness and dullness, and accelerating the cells' absorption of subsequent moisture and nutrients.

5. Chew more when eating

practice:

When food enters the mouth, chew it 10 times with the left and right teeth respectively, and then repeat it twice, which means that you should chew it at least 40 times for each bite.

principle:

Chewing more can fully exercise the chewing muscles, improve the balance between muscles and bones, burn fat in facial muscles, and make facial contours more obvious.

6. Eat more water-discharging foods

practice:

Eat more water-discharging foods such as red beans, coix seeds, cucumbers, and watermelons.

principle:

Red beans, coix seeds, cucumbers, watermelons, etc. are all good draining foods. Although they may not take effect immediately, you will see results as long as you persist, mainly for facial edema.
