Under-Eye Depuffing Massage
A Quick Lymphatic Drainage Reset for Tired, Overworked Eyes
Why This Matters
Long shifts, night duty, screen exposure, and mask fatigue often take a visible toll on the under-eye area. Puffiness and tired-looking eyes are common concerns for healthcare professionals—but relief doesn’t require expensive products or lengthy routines.
A simple under-eye depuffing massage can help restore a refreshed appearance in just a few minutes.
What Is an Under-Eye Lymphatic Massage?
This technique encourages gentle lymphatic drainage, helping move excess fluid away from the under-eye area. The result is reduced puffiness, improved circulation, and a brighter, more awake look.
Best of all, it can be done with or without eye cream—anytime, anywhere.
How to Perform the Massage
(Optional: Apply a small amount of eye cream or moisturizer to reduce friction.)

- Start at the inner corner under the eye
- Gently tap or glide outward toward the temple
- Move upward along the outer eye and back toward the inner brow

- Finish with gentle presses at the temples
⏱ Total time: 1–2 minutes
