Face cupping is a Traditional Chinese Medicine technique that increases blood circulation and lymphatic drainage. The negative pressure of the cups gently encourages the muscles to relax and the skin to produce collagen and elastin. The WTHN Face Cups allow you to target the face, neck, and jaw for localized relief and recovery. Put your best face forward.

Each kit includes:

  • 1 Large Face Cup for cheeks + jawlines
  • 1 Small Face Cup for forehead + around the eyes
  • Detailed how-to guide
  • A canvas carrying case

Product Details

  • The increased oncotic pressure in dry cupping is believed to stimulate lymphatic uptake, thereby facilitating the removal of accumulated fluids and waste products from the treated area. (9)
  • Cupping also removes noxious materials from skin microcirculation and interstitial compartment to detox the area https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21285067 
  • Cupping can induce comfort and relaxation on a systemic level and the resulting increase in endogenous opioid production in the brain leads to improved pain control https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26891653/
  • Cupping-induced negative pressure can dilate local blood vessels to improve microcirculation, promote capillary endothelial cells repair, accelerate granulation and angiogenesis, etc., in the regional tissues, normalizing the patients' functional state at last. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23383463/ 
  • Reduces chronic pain and increases muscle relaxation as effectively as massage https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23762355/
  • In the cupped region, blood vessels are dilated by the action of certain vasodilators such as adenosine, noradrenaline and histamine. Consequently, there is an increase in the circulation of blood to the area. This allows the immediate elimination of trapped toxins in the tissues, and, hence, the patient feels better. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3235710/

Directions

Perform face cupping 2-3 times a week for optimal results with a face serum for easy gliding. However, using your cups even just once a week is helpful for renewed appearance.

  1. Keep it clean. Before or after using, make sure to wash the lip of your cup with soapy water, or wipe it down with witch hazel or rubbing alcohol. Better yet, make it a habit. Please do not remove the glass portion of your face cup from the bulb.
  2. Always apply. Apply oil or lotion to your face before using your face cup. This helps the face cup glide smoothly and softly across the skin.
  3. Keep the cup moving. Keep a steady pace while doing your cupping exercises to avoid leaving a mark (or as we call them, "cup hickies").
  4. Pamper yourself. The physical benefits of face cupping are incredible, but the mental benefits are just as great. Take time to release stress and tension. Really live in the moment and enjoy yourself!

*Face cupping is not recommended on cold sores, open wounds, severe acne, abrasions, cuts, fresh bruising, undiagnosed lumps or swelling, melanoma or other cancers, eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, broken capillaries, skin tags and warts.
