What it is
What is a buccal facial?
A buccal facial is a deep facial massage that works on the muscles of your cheeks and jaw from both outside and inside the mouth. Wearing gloves, your therapist gently massages the inner cheek muscles, which normal facials can't reach.
This releases tension, boosts circulation and helps the face look more lifted and sculpted. It's sometimes called a sculpting or buccal massage facial.
What it can do for you

FAQs
Questions people ask us
It can feel firm and deep in tight spots, but it shouldn't hurt. We check in with you often and adjust the pressure.
Yes, with clean medical gloves. It's gentle, and it reaches muscles that outer massage can't. You can ask us to pause at any time.
Please tell us what you've had, where, and when. We'll advise how long to wait after fillers or anti-wrinkle injections.
It can ease the muscle tension that comes with clenching. It isn't a medical treatment, so please see your dentist about grinding too.
No. It's a natural, non-invasive massage. It can help your face look more lifted and defined, but it won't give surgical results.
