Water retention in the face? This is the only solution

Facial Swelling: Causes and Solutions

Facial swelling and water retention can make your face look puffy, tired, and unhealthy. This swelling occurs when water accumulates in the face and fails to drain through the lymphatic system. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system is not driven by the heart but relies on movement to keep it flowing.

Why is My Face Swollen?

Facial swelling can result from an acute lymphatic blockage or a long-term issue with the lymphatic system. Acute swelling is often caused by stress, lack of movement, or surgical procedures, while chronic issues may indicate a congenital condition called primary lymphedema. Regardless of the cause, supporting your lymphatic system is essential!

Why care about a swollen face? According to physiotherapist Ronja, "A swollen face can also lead to blemishes, acne, and other skin issues due to toxins not being flushed out. It’s not just a cosmetic concern; a poorly functioning lymphatic system can harm overall health."

How to Address Facial Swelling

The answer is manual lymphatic drainage. This involves using specific movements with light pressure to help the lymph flow.

Step-by-Step Guide to Facial Lymphatic Drainage:

  • 1) Use circular motions with your fingers on your temples.
  • 2) Massage the sides of your face using your palms and fingertips.
  • 3) Start at your chin and move upwards toward your forehead.
  • 4) Press upward under your cheekbones using your index and middle fingers, moving toward your eyes.
  • 5) Begin at the center of your face and move toward the temples.
  • 6) Use the sides of your pinky fingers to apply downward pressure along your neck, moving from top to bottom.
  • 7) Enhance the effect by using your knuckles to press and glide from your nose across your cheeks toward your ears.

For lymphatic drainage, we recommend using our White Tea & Silk Protein Night Care or Daily Face Oil, as they are excellent for massage routines.

Pure Squalane & Vitamin E Anti Aging Oil 50 ml - Anti-Aging & Moisturizing
Squalane & Vitamin E Oil Serum – Powerful Moisture Care for Radiant, Protected Skin Pamper your skin with our Squalane & Vitamin E Serum – the perfect addition to your daily skincare routine. This high-quality formulation combines two proven natural active ingredients that work synergistically to deeply hydrate your skin, protect it from external influences, and give it a healthy, radiant glow. Natural Hydration with Squalane – for Smooth Skin Without Greasiness Squalane is a particularly skin-friendly lipid derived from plant sources – mostly olives. It is very similar to the skin's own sebum and can therefore be absorbed exceptionally well without clogging pores. Squalane delivers deep hydration, strengthens the skin barrier, and maintains the skin's natural moisture balance. It smooths rough patches, leaves the skin feeling soft and supple, and provides a silky-smooth sensation – without leaving a greasy residue. Another benefit: Squalane helps make the skin more resilient against external factors such as cold, wind, or dry heating air. It is suitable for all skin types – from dry and sensitive to oily or blemish-prone – and helps restore the skin's natural balance. Antioxidant Protection with Vitamin E – for a Strengthened Skin Barrier Vitamin E (Tocopherol) is a powerful antioxidant that protects your skin from free radicals and oxidative stress – one of the main causes of premature skin aging. It supports cell renewal, promotes skin regeneration, and strengthens the natural protective barrier. This keeps your skin not only smooth and supple but also more resilient against harmful environmental factors such as UV radiation, fine dust, or pollutants. The combination of Squalane and Vitamin E not only deeply nourishes the skin but also protects and cares for it. This active ingredient combination is especially suitable for mature, dry, or sensitive skin, but also for anyone who wants to protect their skin from environmental stressors and maintain its natural glow. The Benefits of Squalane & Vitamin E Serum: Intensive, long-lasting hydration without a greasy feel Strengthens the skin barrier and protects against external factors such as cold, wind, or pollutants Gives the skin a healthy, natural glow Antioxidant protection with Vitamin E – helps prevent premature skin aging Lightweight, non-comedogenic texture – suitable for all skin types Ideal as a daily care serum or as a hydrating base before your day or night cream Application: Shake well before use. Apply a few drops of the oil to cleansed facial skin and gently pat it in with your fingertips until fully absorbed. Then apply your usual moisturizer. For best results, use morning and evening. Note: Not suitable for children under 3 years of age. For external use only. Ingredients: Squalane, Tocopherol
