Presented is a massaging device (100) having a massaging surface comprising a plurality of massaging elements (101, 102, 103) moveable relative to each other; characterized in that: the massaging surface is adapted such that when applying the massaging surface to a skin surface (111) and moving the massaging elements (101, 102, 103) relative to each other, two differently directed forces are simultaneously exercised by the massaging elements (101, 102, 103) on the skin surface (111) thereby causing simultaneous pinching and stretching of the skin surface (111) present in between the massaging elements (101, 102, 103).
