Surprisingly, the area showing aging fastest isn't under-eye bags or forehead lines, but the sides of the nose. A person's youthfulness can be gauged by the nasolabial folds. These folds represent classic skin tissue aging, causing surface indentations.Want to look younger? I'll teach you how to reduce nasolabial folds. Nasolabial Fold Massage Step 1: During your daily moisturizing routine, take two mung bean-sized amounts of cream onto your middle fingers. Use your index and middle fingers to gently dab the cream evenly along both sides of the nostrils—the starting points of the nasolabial folds.
Nasolabial Fold Massage Step 2: Press the pads of your index and middle fingers together along the nasolabial fold line. Starting from the sides of the nostrils, move downward toward the lower lip in a circular, clockwise motion. This helps the cream absorb while stimulating surface tissue to gradually smooth wrinkles.
Nasolabial Fold Massage Step 3: Slide the index and middle fingers of both hands upward from below the lips, as if lifting the corners of the mouth. This prevents sagging and fine lines around the lips while lifting the entire facial contour.
Nasolabial Fold Massage Step 4: Gently press the pads of your middle fingers onto the two major acupoints at the sides of the nostrils and the outer corners of the lips. Repeat three to five times to ensure full absorption of the cream. Note: Apply upward pressure rather than downward force during this step.
After age 30, nasolabial folds gradually deepen—primarily due to aging. Collagen and moisture gradually diminish within the skin, causing subcutaneous tissue to sag, leading to laxity and aging. Therefore, women should prioritize diligent skincare as they age.
During the massage, keep your mouth closed and gently clench your teeth. Incorporate ingredients like Vitamin A and plant extracts to stimulate collagen production, as collagen is highly effective in reducing nasolabial folds.
