Is there a way to prevent yourself from blushing?

Answer

Go to Google and type in "ETS surgery." This is a last resort for people who sweat excessively, but it can also relieve people from excessive facial blushing. However, it can have VERY serious side effects, so most doctors do not advise it for mild cases. You might also want to see a dermatologist to determine if you have rosacea. For rosacea, there are many topical, oral, and natural medications that can greatly benefit this condition.

Blushing is a spontaneous physiological reaction to a specific set of circumstances and, I'm sorry to say, there is no way to prevent blushing from happening unless you can anticipate the circumstances and control your reactions. But keep in mind that many men find 'blushing' to be very attractive in a woman - it suggests innocence, simplicity and a refined and genteel upbringing! Quite a few women actually try to make themselves blush (It's impossible)...Maybe you could try to just enjoy something that others may very possibly envy you for.  

A Suggestion

Often, I'll be blushing and start to get embarassed about it, so I blush more. I've found that thinking "Now why don't you get as red as possible?" and actually trying to get red makes it less extreme. This may not work for eveyone or work all the time, but you can try it.




ANSWER

years ago i had this problem and the only thing i did to stop it was tell myself 'well theres not much you can do about whatever it is you just did' and 'really who cares, its not that important'
and it worked,
i stopped blushing not long after i stopped feeling so embaraced and bothered by everything

its going to be a psychological not physiological problem you have so that's how you have to treat it. with psychology

life is full of people embaracing themselves, we all do it, say something we shouldn't at the very wrong time, show a bit too much skin by accident, have toilet paper stuck in out trousers,

i once forgot to take out my dirty knickers from my trousers and they were in my trouser leg all day, no-one else knew but i did, i just laughed and said 'idiot, should check them next time'
my bro once at someones 21s bday party said at least our presents better than that stupid plastic 21s bday key, everyone fell silent, the persons fiance went and brought them a plastic key a few mins later
i once said you wont pry my drink out of my cold dead hands(joking), at someones funeral, in front of his family,( it just slipped out i have no idea why)
that's just a few of the stories i remember, everyone i know has hundreds of those stories

we all do it
all you have to do is accept that who ever you just said or did something to or in front of, has already done and will do things like that too,

that its not that big a deal

that if anyone gets truly hurt by something you say you say sorry

that if you fall down in front of a crowd of people, you laugh with them when they laugh at you
(even if its fake laugh you do and inside your dying of embaracement, i know ive done that a lot, its not funny when you fall, but you look like a great person who can laugh at themselves AND this fools your body into thinking you are not embaraced so it doesn't react embaraced)

don't ignore it all the time, mention it, poke fun at yourself say something lke 'oh that's typical of me eh'

remember its not funny when you fall or do or say something emabracing but its always funny when someone else does and everyone, including you, will laugh at them too,

and remember that even though you laughed at them, by tomorrow, the next week, whenever, youll have forgotten all about whatever it was they did. and that's what everyone does when it was you

remember these things happen sometimes to simply entertain us and give us a few mins of laughter out of life

don't feel embaraced or bad about yourself when you blush, its just a response, its not a big deal either if you don't bother so much about blushing itself that will help a lot

an important fact to remember is that if you fool your body into thinking your not embaraced it wont act embaraced, everything here works on that principal,
and soon enough if you tell yourself your not that bothered and you tell your body your not that bothered, you will end up not being that bothered for real. its all in the psychology.

and as said in the movie terminator," in a hundred years whos going to care"

Advice

If you're looking for a way to cool down, calm and even stop facial blushing altogether, you need to know what works and what will simply add fuel to the flames.

In this article, as an ex blusher myself, I would like to point out a very effective and simple mental theory that will aid you in times of need, particularly when you feel the blushing is at its worst.

Just Relax...

Yes I know, it's not easy...but hang in there for a second...

In fact, it's far easier said than done isn't it? Well, let me reassure you. When you first climbed onto your brand new bicycle that you had for Christmas, did you think that you would always fall off? Well, maybe so, but something made you want to keep on climbing back onto that hunk of metal for another try...

...but what made you put yourself through that?

It's not because you knew that the experience of riding a bike was so joyful. That couldn't have been the reason...because how would you have even known what it was like to ride a bike in the first place?

It's actually because you knew that it was possible to learn and more importantly, at that tender age, you didn't have the negative thought pattern that would make to doubt your ability to improve yourself. The way you saw it, if other kids can then so can you. Plus, you didn't want that bike to go to waste or have some other kid ride it whilst you stood by the wayside...right?

So how does this relate to the ability to relax?

Well, it's very much the same actually. The art of relaxation is a form which must be practised with the same discipline that you held just as you did when learning to cruise on those two wheels all those years ago.

You must learn the art of being able to switch your "relaxation mode" on and off like a tap. That way, when you face difficult situations and you really need to stop facial blushing episodes, the new found skill of relaxation will help you maintain a lower heart rate and aid you in seeing things in a more healthy and calm perspective.

Take five minutes out of each day, sit in a quiet place free from distraction and close your eyes. Make sure you are comfortable and notice your breathing. The idea is to slow your breathing down and relax every muscle in your body. Breathe air to the bottom of your lungs and allow your tummy to expand, not your chest.

The more you can train your body to fall into a deeper sense of relaxation each day, the better adjusted you will be when you need to quickly get intio that state of relaxation in the future.

So next time you see the task of learning to relax as an inconvenience or time consuming chore, remember back to when your bike riding teacher let go of the frame and watched you glide off into the distance with full control. Because that feeling you had back then is the feeling that awaits you in the very near future...a life free from excessive blushing.

There are many theories for a blushing free life. I can only hope you are not led to the ones that cost you more time, pain and discomfort than the original problem of blushing itself. Instead, I would encourage you to visit and see how you can block out and stop facial blushing for good with my unique system before the spiral goes too far.
Re First Comment, blushing at a young age can lead to flushing when you get older and that can lead to Roseacea. If you are Northern European, and fair skinned, you should stay out of the sun and use a mild cleanser twice a day and avoid stenuous exercise that makes you sweat, food that makes your face flush, stay away from alcohol, cigarettes and use sunscreen. And, as the first person advised, go see a dermatologist because you may be in first stage Rosacea. If you do this early, you may avoid going into second stage Roseaca too early in life.
