Kobido face massage is chosen by patients who want visible improvement in facial tone and skin quality without injectables or devices. The treatment combines rhythmic lifting movements, myofascial release, and lymphatic drainage to support the skin and underlying structures.
This approach helps to:
Relieve facial and jaw tension
Improve circulation and lymphatic flow
Reduce facial puffiness
Support natural lifting and sculpting of the face
Encourage relaxation of overactive facial muscles
Many patients also notice benefits beyond the skin, including improved comfort in the jaw and neck and a general sense of calm.
Treatments at Dermal Health are delivered within a medical-led clinic environment, with careful attention to anatomy, safety, and individual need. Kobido face massage is not offered as a generic facial, but as a structured clinical therapy that considers facial muscles, fascia, lymphatic pathways, and postural tension.
Each treatment is adapted to the individual, whether the focus is facial sculpting, tension relief, lymphatic drainage, or supporting recovery following aesthetic procedures. If you are unsure whether this treatment is suitable for you, a consultation allows time to discuss your concerns and goals in detail.

Clinical face massage works alongside dermatological and aesthetic procedures by addressing elements that devices and injectables do not reach. By working with fascia, muscles, and lymphatic pathways, face massage supports tissue health and recovery.
When carried out at an appropriate time following treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections or dermal fillers, gentle lymphatic and myofascial techniques help reduce swelling, support circulation, and encourage the face to settle more evenly.
Regular facial therapy also helps manage chronic muscle tension and jaw clenching, supporting a softer, more balanced facial appearance over time.
Anna Godek is a manual therapist specialising in clinical face massage therapies. Her work focuses on hands-on treatment of the facial muscles, fascia, and lymphatic pathways, supporting both skin health and overall facial function.
Anna’s approach is grounded in a detailed understanding of facial anatomy and tension patterns.

She offers a range of advanced facial therapies, including Kobido face massage, buccal massage, facial sculpting, and lymphatic drainage techniques. Each treatment is adapted to the individual, with careful consideration given to comfort, tissue response, and therapeutic outcome.
Anna’s treatments are frequently chosen by patients experiencing jaw tension, TMJ-related discomfort, facial puffiness, headaches, or those seeking a natural approach to maintaining facial tone and skin vitality. Her work also supports patients undergoing or recovering from dermatological and aesthetic treatments, helping the face settle more comfortably and evenly.
