La tendance "Snatched Skin" : qu'est-ce que c'est ?

The “Snatched Skin” trend: what is it?

Have you heard of the “Snatched Skin” trend?

Are you looking for alternatives to injections or a technique to prolong their effects? Then the “Snatched Skin” technique is for you.

Today, there are non-invasive techniques that offer the same results without requiring surgery thanks to massage. Let's decipher together this new anti-aging technique for lifted and sculpted skin.

What is Snatched Skin?

Popularized in the 1990s by the New York drag scene, the slang "snatch" has been taken up to refer to a perfectly "sculpted" face and/or smooth, lifted skin.

Famous facialist Ivan Pol, known as @thebeautysandwich on Instagram, formerly a fan of botulinum toxin, noticed that aesthetic treatments did not always have the desired effects. Working at the dermatology department of Mount Sinai Hospital in Miami, he decided to develop a painless method: the "Snatched Skin". A massage created and adopted by stars like Bella Hadid and Cindy Crawford, which consists of a "beauty sandwich" where several treatments are applied successively before a lifting massage.

This non-invasive technique focuses on the "inverted pyramid of youth", targeting the lower parts of the face that lose definition over time, it enhances and reshapes the face by redefining the jawline, lifting the cheekbones and draining toxins from the face.

The anti-aging power of massage

“Snatched skin” is above all a concept created to highlight the benefits of massage. In France, massage techniques such as face sculpting, kobido and lymphatic drainage are increasingly developing. It is also a mixture of these techniques that you can find in our Skin Studios thanks to an ultra-expert protocol developed with the renowned facialist, Sandrine Framezelle.

And for good reason, it is scientifically proven that massage has a beneficial effect on your skin: it helps to stimulate blood microcirculation, reduce wrinkles and fine lines, improve skin elasticity and relax facial muscles.

Boosted by active ingredients, the massage will target the subcutaneous muscles, responsible for skin aging. Think of it as a workout for the skin, it's all about training. The earlier you start working these muscles, the better they will age over time.

This is the type of in-depth work that you find in our TensioLift treatment . Designed as a natural alternative to aesthetic medicine techniques, the TensioLift treatment combines a complete anti-aging protocol with a complex of botox-like active ingredients for an immediate and long-lasting result for all skin types.

Thanks to a dynamic massage, it acts directly on the facial muscles and stimulates the fibroblasts located in the dermis to restart collagen production. The different gestures associated with the phytotensor effect of the TensioLift Oil allow the active ingredients to penetrate deep into the skin and inhibit the muscle contractions that cause wrinkles and fine lines.

And at home?

To perform the Snatched Skin technique at home and obtain a lifted effect, follow these steps:

Double cleansing

Start with a double cleanse to remove any impurities from the skin. Use a cleansing oil and a cleansing gel and massage it into your skin for a minute. Make sure to massage gently but vigorously to avoid any irritation.

Exfoliation

Next, exfoliate to remove excess sebum and dead skin cells, which will brighten your skin and help your skincare products absorb more effectively. Opt for a gentle exfoliant with AHAs or PHAs that you can use regularly.

Background treatment

Apply a serum that is tailored to your skin's specific needs. Choose an anti-blemish, mattifying, anti-spot, or hydrating serum depending on your skin's needs. Look for ingredients like niacinamide, salicylic acid, vitamin C, retinol, hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or aloe vera.

Hydration

Use a rich, nourishing moisturizer to plump up your skin and give it a glow. You can add a drop or two of oil, like our TensioLift Oil . This oil, enriched with Spilanthes, acts on the 8 signs of skin aging by reproducing the effect of botox by blocking muscle action.

Transformative massage

Finish with self-massage gestures. In general, a few minutes of massage per day is enough. Massage the jaw area in particular, starting from the chin and going down to the ears to smooth the features. You can also smooth the contours of the eyes and cheekbones. If you don't know which gestures to start with, discover our digital program : in 21 days, learn how to massage yourself by receiving 1 video per week in your mailbox. And bonus, if possible, use an LED mask to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin and obtain an optimal lifting effect, as recommended by Ivan Pol. If you don't have one at home, you can do it with us in one of our treatments!
