Facial Massage Can Help Get Rid Of Frown Lines — Here’s How To Do It

**Sunlight **- The UV rays of the sun are quite damaging for your skin. They break down the elastin and collagen at a much faster rate, making you more susceptible to frown lines. Stress - Stress causes the facial muscles to tense up and release the stress chemical called cortisol in the body — this accelerates premature ageing. **Smoking **- Tobacco is harmful to your skin as much as it is to your body. Inhaling tobacco constricts your blood vessels and prevents the natural flow of oxygenated blood to the facial tissues.

**Forehead **- For a smooth wrinkle-free forehead, follow this facial massaging technique: Place the palms of your hand on each side of your forehead. Now, hold the skin tight with your left hand and press the palm of your right hand on the right side of your forehead in a clockwise, circular motion for about two minutes. Repeat on the left side. Repeat thrice. **Around the eyes **- Place your thumbs on the outer corner of the eyes and fingers on the side of your head. Close your eyes and gently pull the outer corner of the eyes using your thumbs towards the sides of your head, slightly upwards. Hold for 10 seconds then relax. Repeat 15 times daily.
