The Sculpting Secret You’ve Probably Never Heard Of (But Absolutely Need to Try): Buccal Massage

There are very few things that feel revolutionary four weeks postpartum. Sleep is patchy, your body’s in recovery mode, and relaxation feels like a luxury you can’t quite reach. But yesterday, I experienced a treatment that cut through the fog and delivered something truly transformative: a Lymphatic Sculpting Facial with Buccal Massage.

Wait—what’s Buccal Massage?

Think: deep, tension-melting massage for your face… from the inside. Buccal Massage is a technique that involves working the muscles intraorally—yes, inside the mouth—to release built-up tension in the jaw, sculpt the cheekbones, and boost circulation for that lit-from-within glow. It might sound a little intense, but trust me: it’s not just for celebs before red carpets anymore.

Sophie Brown, the miracle worker behind my treatment, just arrived in London from Vancouver (thank you, Carli, for the introduction). Sophie and Carli trained together in Lymphatic Massage, and let’s just say—she’s got magic hands. Her background combines the sculpting precision of buccal with the detoxifying power of lymphatic drainage, creating a facial that’s both deeply relaxing and subtly transformative.

So, what does it feel like?

Honestly? Like someone hit reset on my nervous system. As someone who’s running on adrenaline and breastfeeding hormones, my body’s been stuck in fight-or-flight mode. For 45 blissful minutes, Sophie’s treatment brought me back into myself. The jaw work released years (yes, years) of grinding tension. I could feel the fluid moving. I left the snug in that post-facial floaty haze—but the real shocker came the next morning.

The next-day glow up

The difference was wild. Forehead lines? Softened. Under-eye puffiness? Gone. Jawline? Sculpted. I looked like a more rested, clear-skinned version of myself—and I felt like a human again. My only regret? Not taking before-and-after photos to prove just how powerful this treatment is.

And the best part? You can try it too.

We’re so excited to welcome Sophie into the GoodGood family with a special High Summer Sessions Pop-Up in our snug space on Friday 22 August. She’ll be offering both her signature Lymphatic Sculpting Facial with Buccal Massage as an add-on and Full Body Lymphatic Drainage and Massage treatments.

Our snug is warm, cocoon-like, and the perfect tucked-away space to fully switch off. Whether your body needs a full reset or your face is craving a little sculpt-and-drain magic, Sophie’s treatments are your new go-to.

Appointments will be limited, and trust us—you’ll want to be first in line.
