If you got bruises on your face after cupping, it may indicate that the suction was too strong for your skin, you cupped for too long or the cup was left in one spot. It’s important to use gentle pressure and keep the cups moving in smooth, gliding motions. To avoid bruising in the future, start with a light suction and gradually increase as your skin gets used to the treatment. Make sure to a great facial oil to help the cups glide smoothly and to nourish your skin. We recommend Curam Face massage oil.
