Many beautystas have adopted it to fight against the first signs of aging. This technique is called face taping. . The idea of lifting his face using adhesive strips to be strategically placed on affected areas and let it sit for a while . Vie Aesthetics Medical Director Dr. Loannis Liaka told our colleagues at Refinery29 , that “the goal is to contract the muscles and limit their movement "According to him, it's more of a 'night ritual “, sleeping with tape on the face helps “prevent the eyebrows from frowning or making an expression during sleep “.
Facing the buzz from this technique, several cosmetic brands have already released their own facelift patches. Doctors are rather skeptical of the effectiveness of the technique. Some even think it could have the opposite effect and promote the appearance of wrinkles. "By sticking tape on his face to keep the muscles still during sleep, we are not preventing our muscles from working. Instead, we add resistance against which these muscles work. This trains the muscles to work harder and get stronger, which speeds up the formation of fine lines and wrinkles “, they said. They also warn beauty addicts of possible allergies. The glue can cause irritation, redness or rashes. In some cases, it may even tear off a layer of skin. Test carefully!
