Pinch with your bare hands and have a star with the same small V face？ Is the beauty of social networks reliable？
City Express News No surgery, no injections, no medicine, as long as you are pinched and rubbed by the osteopath’s hand, you can quickly lose face, and the effect is comparable to that of plastic surgery. Recently, Qiaoqiao, a Hangzhou girl who loves beauty, often receives advertisements on WeChat to adjust her face with her bare hands, which makes her very excited. "I checked on the Internet, and bare-handed Xiaoyan osteopathy is very popular now. Female stars like Jolin Tsai, Zhang Ziyi, Nanao, and online celebrity Zhang Dayi seem to have done it. "
Introduction of Xiaoyan osteopathy advertisement
You don’t have to cut the bone with a knife, rub it and pinch it.
You can quickly have the same little V face as a female star
Zhang Dayi went to Weibo a few years ago.
Take a picture of yourself getting a facelift.
Is this bare-handed facelift reliable? Last week, I had an experience after randomly finding a beauty salon in Hangzhou that could do this project.
Experience:
499 yuan at a time
It’s a bit like doing massage in a massage shop.
Searching for "Xiaoyan osteopathy" on Xiaohongshu App, I got 2383 user notes. According to my notes, I found that the users who have experienced this beauty project in Little Red Book are basically women aged around 30.
"It may hurt a little when you press it, but it passes quickly." "I experienced it once, and my face really became smaller." "After an hour and a half of the little face experience, I obviously felt that my left and right faces were symmetrical …" Although some users felt good after the experience, the user comments of "IQ tax", "cheat people beauty project" and "unreliable" were also everywhere in Little Red Book.
Then, is there a beauty institution in Hangzhou that can do small face osteopathy?
I searched for "Xiaoyan osteopathy" on the public comment and found 25 related businesses. Among them, more than 80% of the merchants’ names have the words "Japanese beauty" and "Japanese bonesetting".
According to the price, the highest price is 4266 yuan (the current group purchase price is 999 yuan) and the lowest price is 328 yuan.
I randomly found a beauty studio in the east of the city that can provide this project and made an appointment with the customer service phone.
It may be the reason why the working afternoon passed. At that time, I was the only customer in this beauty studio opened in the residential building of the community. In the studio of more than 90 square meters, there are two male osteopaths and female assistants in their early forties.
Before the experience, the osteopath handed me a questionnaire, asking me to check whether I had done any cosmetic plastic surgery projects such as bone grinding and filling. After filling out the form, the female assistant asked me to stick to the wall and take a front photo of my face. "After doing the whole bone for a while, you can look at the photos and compare the changes before and after the face."
After taking photos and lying on the beauty bed, the osteopath took a pair of calipers and measured my cheekbone and mandibular angle respectively. After that, the experience officially began. The osteopath first pressed the lymph nodes (behind the ear, neck and armpit) on my upper body for more than 20 minutes. "This is to eliminate edema and make your face look better after osteopathy." The osteopath explained while pressing.
After the lymph nodes were pressed well, the osteopath then covered the cheekbones and mandibular angles on my face with his palm, and repeated the vigorous pressing action many times. The whole process didn’t last more than 4 minutes, and it felt a little similar to the full-body massage I usually do in a massage shop. After the end, I can obviously feel the pain on my face after being squeezed.
The female assistant then put a clean mask on my face. After more than 10 minutes, I washed my face after applying the mask. The osteopath took a caliper and measured my cheekbones and mandibular angle again. "The mandibular angle was 103 degrees, and now it is 101 degrees. The width of the cheekbones is 10 mm smaller than at the beginning. "
The female assistant guided me to take postoperative photos. Comparing the photos before and after, I found that my face really tightened a little with the naked eye.
Osteologist:
A course of treatment is 12 times, and it is best to finish it within one month.
The osteopath said that the problem on my face is not very big, mainly because my cheekbones are a little outward. "Bone problems like this can generally be improved by osteopathy."
What exactly is a small face and a bonesetting? The osteopath explained: "Xiaoyan’s osteopathy originated in Japan, and it originated from China’s massage osteopathy. After it was spread to Japan, it became osteopathy."
The osteopath said that a person’s skull is composed of 23 bones. With the increase of age, chewing habits or other reasons, the gap between bones keeps increasing, resulting in asymmetry between the left and right faces. Visually, the human body’s own cheekbones are high and the mandible is wide, which leads to abrupt facial bones and lack of softness of facial lines.
"Xiaoyan osteopathy is to narrow the gap between your facial bones, lower your cheekbones, narrow your mandible, and make the whole facial bones smaller through professional osteopathy, so as to achieve the effect of face-lifting and shaping."
Seeing that I have been staring at the comparative care before and after surgery, the female assistant on the side said that my adjustment was very successful this time. "You may not have paid much attention to your face, and the right face is obviously larger than the left face. Go back and look in the mirror today to see if there is symmetry. "
The osteopath said that Xiaoyan’s osteopathy will have an effect once and can last for 2 to 3 days. "Generally, 12 times is a course of treatment, and it is best to finish it within one month. Our current single price is 499 yuan, and the one-cycle price is 5988 yuan. There are many girls who have come to do it recently. At most, I will do 10 a day. "
The reason why it should be finished within one month, he explained, is that after the user’s facial bones are relatively stable in structure and soft tissues are improved through facelift, facial muscle memory will fix this effect. "This way, the effect will be more lasting and can last for more than two years."
Training school:
Spend 24,000 yuan, and you can become a Xiaoyan osteopath in 7 days.
"If you want to learn this method, you can also master it." The osteopath said. Searching for "Xiaoyan osteopathy training" on the web page, I found that there is indeed a training school for unarmed osteopathy in Hangzhou.
In the teaching introduction of one of the schools, it is written that the school mainly teaches students "freehand osteopathy" based on modern anatomy.
Bare-handed osteoplasty can be divided into facial plastic surgery and body plastic surgery. The former includes adjustment of high cheekbones, adjustment of decree lines, adjustment of nose collapse, face rectification, elimination of neck lines, etc., while the latter includes adjustment of spinal carding, scapula and leg shape, etc. The school sets the tuition price according to the time of bare-handed osteopathy and the type of osteopathy (facial osteopathy and body osteopathy).
I found a school at random to consult the price. The customer service said that if she wanted to learn Japanese-style osteopathy course, she recommended a 7-day course with a tuition fee of 24,000 yuan.
"We have doctors from regular specialized hospitals for training, and you can learn from zero foundation." The customer service said that the school will not only provide practice materials, but also provide free lifelong repair in the later period, and will also issue a certificate of completion.
From this point of view, at present, in the market, an industrial chain of "Japanese-style small face and bonesetting" has been initially formed, from manual training, course design to project management.
Doctors in related fields:
It has nothing to do with Chinese massage and medical beauty.
Xiaoyan bonesetting is said to have originated from Chinese massage bonesetting. Then, will orthopedic surgeons in hospitals also do this kind of "massage" on their faces?
"The current bonesetting of Chinese medicine is mainly aimed at the spine and joints of limbs." Xiong Junlong, an orthopedic surgeon at Zhejiang Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, told me that he had never touched the bonesetting of his face.
However, after listening to my description, Dr. Xiong thinks that if this method is used, there should be no bonesetting method in it. "It’s just through massage and the like to improve the muscle tension of the face and achieve the so-called compactness."
Zhang Jufang, director of the Medical Beauty Department of the First People’s Hospital of Hangzhou, also said after watching the relevant videos I sent her that this kind of small face osteopathy does not belong to the category of medical beauty.
After searching for professional information, I found that although there is no need for surgery or injection, osteopathy is also a medical act, and only regular doctors are qualified to operate and need to be qualified as doctors. At present, chiropractic and bonesetting need to be performed by a Chinese medicine chiropractor in state administration of traditional chinese medicine.
However, there is another saying: this kind of treatment is not a medical act because there is no appearance damage, so the industrial and commercial department can’t judge whether it is beyond the registered business scope. This has become a vacuum zone for the supervision of health and industry and commerce departments.
Many netizens in Zhihu asked: Is Xiaoyan osteopathy an IQ tax? "Plastic surgeon Qin Zikai", a netizen certified as a plastic surgeon in the 960 Hospital of the People’s Liberation Army, said that there was indeed a gap in the skull, but it was closed and stereotyped when the human body was developed (about 24 years old for men and earlier for women). "Moreover, the temporomandibular joint is very fragile. If you meet a technician with no weight in your hand, it may lead to dislocation of your chin or make you suffer from temporomandibular joint disorder syndrome."
