Give A Workout To Your Facial Muscles

Excess fat around your face will melt away at the same time it melts from the rest of you. Devotees of face exercises claim that regular participation is what lends them a youthful appearance, but everyone isn’t convinced about the effectiveness of these workouts.

Exercise alone won’t get rid of wrinkles — you may find an anti-aging moisturizer or cosmetic procedures much more effective if that’s your aim. Likewise, if you have a double chin and want it to disappear, you’ll most benefit from a full-body exercise program.

Neck and jowl exercises

Many of the exercises listed above are quite similar to exercises designed to target the jowls and exercises for the so-called “turkey neck.”

That’s because the muscles of the face are largely connected in one way or another, so working to strengthen one muscle within the face or neck might affect other parts of the facial area.

Cheeks and lips

Both of these exercises are supposed to help tighten the areas around the mouth and cheeks but note that repetitive motion like this can promote wrinkles.

  • Kiss and grin – Pucker your lips and stick them out, as if you’re giving someone a big kiss. Then pull your lips back into a wide grin. Hold each position for a second or two; the two movements together count as one rep. Repeat for 10 reps.
  • Straw exercise – Purse your lips as if you’re sucking on a straw. Hold for a count of five. Repeat 10 to 20 times.

Eyelids

Hooded eyes are sometimes genetic, but they can also happen as you age and the skin of your eyelids starts to droop.

  1. Close your eyes tightly.
  2. Roll your eyeballs up toward the sky with your eyelids still closed.
  3. Keep your eyes pointed up for 20-30 seconds.
  4. Go through this sequence 2-3 times.

Exercises for double chins

Try one or both of these exercises designed to help reduce double chins.

  1. Sit in a straight-backed chair and look straight ahead. Lean your head back and face the ceiling. Open your mouth into a round O without stressing it; hold for a count of 10 to 20, close your mouth and return to the starting position. Repeat 8 to 12 times.
  2. Tilt your head back to look at the ceiling. Lift your lower lip over your top lip. This may be difficult, so only stretch your lip as far as you comfortably can. Hold for a count of five. Repeat 5 to 10 times.

Forehead exercise

Though not as effective as Botox or fillers, this simple exercise is supposed to help tone the forehead muscles to tighten the area.

  • Close your eyes and lift your eyebrows as high as you can, while keeping your eyelids shut.
  • You may place gentle pressure on your lids if you have trouble keeping them closed. Repeat 10 times.
