As we get older, our skin starts to produce less collagen. The skin begins to lose some of its elasticity, and the skin even becomes a bit thinner. Over time, you might start to notice wrinkles forming at the corner of your eyes or between your brows. Repetitive muscle movements, like laughing, smiling, and frowning, can cause some fine lines that slowly deepen into wrinkles.

You don’t have to wait for these changes to sneak up on you. Be proactive in boosting collagen production, increasing blood flow, and preventing wrinkles before they start. 
## 6 Facial Massage Techniques to Reduce Wrinkles
Ready for a simple way to reduce wrinkles and enjoy soft and youthful skin? Here are 6 facial massage techniques that can promote blood flow and increase blood circulation in your face. They will also help you relax at the end of a long day.

Before starting your DIY facial massage to reduce wrinkles, wash your hands, then wash your face with a gentle cleanser. Next, grab your favorite moisturizer and get ready for a massage. 

## Forehead Massage
Forehead lines are often the first to appear. To promote blood flow in your forehead and smooth away these wrinkles, use your fingertips to massage your forehead. Move your fingers up from your eyebrows towards your hairline to promote more lift in the skin. 

## Between the Brows
Next, massage between your eyebrows. You may notice some frown lines starting to form, so massage these lines with horizontal movements, starting between your brows then moving out towards your temples. 

## Eye Area
Do your eyes look tired? While you’d love to reduce the bags under your eyes, massage this area very gently. The skin around your eyes is the most sensitive skin on your face. Using very gentle pressure, massage in circles from the brows to the temples, then massage down and in towards the nose.

## Cheek Massage
Your cheeks may not show any wrinkles yet but massaging your cheeks and improving circulation can promote healthy, glowing skin. Starting at your chin, massage your cheeks in circular movements up towards your cheekbones.  

## Lower Face and Mouth
Over time, the corners of your mouth may start to sag, or you may notice fine lines and wrinkles around your mouth. Using your fingertips, massage around your mouth in upward circles. Start under the mouth, and massage up towards the nose. 

## Neck Massage
Did you know that wrinkles on your face may be caused by sagging skin on your neck? The skin on your neck may pull down on the skin around your mouth, creating more wrinkles. Promote healthy skin on your neck by massaging your neck in long upwards motions from your shoulders to your ears. 
## Botox for Facial Wrinkles
After your DIY facial massage, it’s time to kick things up a notch to smooth away those wrinkles even faster. Botox is a great option to reduce facial wrinkles, as well as prevent wrinkles from forming. Book a consultation with one of our doctors and find out more about Botox for facial wrinkles.
