✨ What Is Facial Cupping?
A gentle lift. A glowing shift. A natural way to rejuvenate, reset, and restore.
Facial cupping is a soothing, non-invasive therapy that uses soft silicone or glass cups to create gentle suction on the face and neck. Unlike traditional cupping (which can leave marks), facial cupping is light and rhythmic—designed to sculpt, stimulate, and soften your skin and underlying tissues.
It’s part relaxation, part rejuvenation, and 100% glow-inducing.
💆♀️ How It Works
Using small, specialized cups, your practitioner glides and pulses along the contours of your face. The suction:
- Stimulates blood flow and oxygen to the skin
- Encourages lymphatic drainage to reduce puffiness
- Relaxes facial muscles (especially jaw, brow, and forehead tension)
- Increases collagen and elastin production over time
- Clears stagnation and improves skin tone + texture
The result? A natural face-lift effect without needles or downtime.
