How Often Should Kobido Massage Be Performed?

Kobido massage is one of the oldest Japanese facial massage techniques, offering both deep relaxation and lifting effects while improving skin condition. Although the first results can be noticed after a single session, for long-lasting effects, it is recommended to undergo a series of treatments. The frequency of the massage depends on the skin’s individual needs and the desired results.

Frequency of Kobido Treatments

Series of Treatments for Lasting Results
To achieve noticeable and long-term effects, it is recommended to perform a series of 5 to 7 treatments, with one session per week. This level of intensity helps gradually firm the skin, reduce muscle tension, and improve microcirculation.
Maintenance Treatments
After completing the initial series, it is advisable to have a massage every 4 to 6 weeks to maintain the achieved results. Regular sessions help preserve skin elasticity, prevent premature wrinkles, and support natural regeneration processes.
Individual Needs
In cases where the skin has more significant issues, such as excessive muscle tension, puffiness, expression lines, or loss of firmness, the specialist may recommend more frequent sessions. Conversely, those with sensitive skin may need longer breaks between treatments.

What Are the Benefits of Kobido Massage?

Lifting Effect
Kobido massage works on the deep muscle layers of the face, naturally lifting facial contours and smoothing out expression lines.
Improved Circulation and Skin Oxygenation
By stimulating microcirculation, the massage helps the skin become more radiant and even-toned. Enhanced blood flow also improves the nourishment and oxygenation of skin cells.
Muscle Relaxation and Tension Relief
The massage helps release tension in the facial, neck, and shoulder muscles, which can reduce stress-related symptoms and headaches caused by muscle strain.
Increased Skin Elasticity
Regular sessions promote collagen and elastin production, enhancing skin firmness and improving its structure.

Are There Any Contraindications for Kobido Massage?

Although Kobido massage is generally safe, there are some contraindications, including:

active skin inflammation,
open wounds,
recent aesthetic treatments (e.g., Botox, fillers),
serious dermatological or neurological conditions.

If there are any concerns, it is recommended to consult a cosmetologist or doctor before the procedure.

Kobido massage should be performed in a series of 5 to 7 treatments once a week to achieve long-lasting improvements in skin condition, lifting effects, and relaxation. After completing the series, maintenance sessions every 4 to 6 weeks are recommended to sustain the results. The massage supports skin regeneration, improves microcirculation, and provides relaxation, making it an excellent addition to a regular facial care routine.
