How to remove facial edema

Edema is a symptom that may occur in various parts of the body. Symptoms of edema may also appear on the face. Generally speaking, facial edema is closely related to people’s sleep. If people drink too much water before going to bed, it may also cause facial edema. Therefore, this situation can be treated. So how should facial edema be removed?

1. Sleep

Facial swelling is closely related to sleep. Many people like to stay in bed and sleep until noon. Sleeping for a long time can easily cause facial swelling. Therefore, we should have regular sleeping hours. It is enough from 11pm to 8am every day. Don't drink too much water or eat anything one hour before going to bed.

2. Cold or hot compress on face

After cleaning your face, first apply a hot towel to your face for two minutes. Make sure the temperature of the towel is not too hot. Then apply a cold towel for two minutes and repeat this three times. This can promote blood circulation in the skin, help drain excess water from the face and eliminate puffiness.

3. Avoid strong flavors

Diet and facial swelling are closely related. What you eat today will immediately show up on your skin tomorrow. Spicy and irritating foods can easily cause edema. So eat less salty, light-flavored food.

4. Massage to reduce swelling

Massage can promote blood circulation in the face, allowing the skin to expel excess water and toxins. Press the area around the eye sockets with your fingertips, press each position for 5 seconds, and repeat 3 times. You can refer to the massage technique diagram to perform appropriate massage on the facial acupoints.

5. Black coffee reduces swelling

Drink a cup of black coffee after getting up every day, which can excrete excess water or toxic substances from the body, and then use the detumescence function of black coffee to help eliminate facial swelling. Black coffee is a very good product for detumescence.

6. Exercise to reduce swelling

Exercise is the healthiest way to eliminate swelling. It not only reduces swelling on the face, but also helps the skin excrete toxins better, making your complexion better and your body healthier. Gymnastics, jogging and badminton are all good winter sports.

7. Strong tea reduces swelling

The principle of strong tea in reducing swelling is the same as that of black coffee. It is also due to the effect of caffeine. Strong tea not only contains caffeine, but also catechins, which are very effective in eliminating facial and eye swelling. Applying soaked tea bags to the eyes is particularly effective in removing eye swelling.
