The buccal facial massage is a non-invasive technique that works inside and outside the mouth to release jaw tension, improve circulation, and sculpt facial contours. At Sakura Estética Avanzada in Mexico City, we offer this specialized treatment to support relaxation, well-being, and a natural lifting effect for your face.

Many people seek facials for relaxation, glowing skin, or anti-aging effects. Yet, few treatments reach as deep and transformative as the buccal facial massage. This advanced technique focuses not only on the outer muscles of the face but also the inner oral cavity, creating a unique effect on tension release, muscle tone, and overall facial balance.
At Sakura Estética Avanzada, this treatment has become one of our signature protocols, offering patients relief from tightness in the jaw and visible improvements in facial definition.
What is a buccal facial massage?
Unlike traditional facials that only address the surface, the buccal facial massage involves gentle, precise movements inside the mouth. With gloved hands, the therapist works on the orbicularis oris and masseter muscles — key areas responsible for chewing, clenching, and facial expression. By reaching these deep structures, the technique helps to release chronic tension, improve circulation, and stimulate collagen production.
The result is both therapeutic and aesthetic: less stiffness in the jaw, reduced appearance of fine lines around the mouth, and a more sculpted facial contour.
Key benefits of buccal massage
Patients who try this treatment often notice their face feels lighter and more relaxed immediately afterward. Over time, the massage contributes to improved skin elasticity, softened expression lines, and a refreshed overall look. It also helps those who clench their jaw or grind their teeth at night by reducing the tightness of the masseter muscles.
One of the most appreciated outcomes is the lifting effect: by relaxing and retraining deep facial muscles, the skin sits more smoothly, and the natural structure of the cheeks and jawline becomes more defined.
Who is it for?
Buccal facial massage is ideal for individuals who experience jaw tension, facial puffiness, or early signs of sagging. It is also well-suited for anyone looking for a natural, non-invasive approach to facial rejuvenation. However, it is not a medical cure for conditions like bruxism — which may require dental or medical supervision — but it can complement your overall wellness and aesthetic routine.
How we perform it at Sakura
At Sakura Estética Avanzada, each session is customized to your needs. After a gentle surface cleanse, I work with gloved hands to carefully massage inside and outside the mouth, focusing on areas of greatest tension. Each session lasts about 50 minutes and can be combined with other facial techniques for enhanced results.
