Facial Exercise

There’s no need to mention the  importance of physical exercise. But the fact that your face muscles require exercise does worth mentioning…

Though most anti aging remedies focus on skin care and plastic surgeries - a new approach is now begining to take more and more attention: Facial Exercise.

It is now proven - conducting  facial exercises on a regular basis can have a dramatic impact on how your appearance to a great extent.

Human beings have 57 different muscles in area of the  face alone - these muscles are working together to support our facial movements.

Those muscle are all interconnected via massive fibres and work together to enable our face to create various facial expressions, movements and activities.

The 57 muscles are attached directly to our facial skin (not to bones) making your face skin more “age revealing”. Lack of sufficient muscle mass and tone (caused by aging)  causes the

well-known sagging face syndrome.  But here are the good news - new studies show that this syndrome can be vastly improved via facial exercise:

Recommended Facial Exercise Sessions:

Neck

Put  your hand (wide open) at the base of your throat, stretched across your collarbone.

Holding your hand downwards, extend your neck up - make sure to lead the movement with your chin

and stretch with your bottom jaw, only, towards the ceiling.  “attemp” to reach with your bottom lip towards the

ceiling just  like a gulping fish. Complete 5 sets.

Improve Frown Lines

Put the  pads of your middle fingers over the bridge of your nose. Place your index fingers on each side of the bridge of your nose

below your middle finger. Now move the muscles under the fingers upwards - then hold for ten seconds.

Complete 5 repetitions.

Lips

A) Sit upright facing forward. Start  pursing your lips together. Lift your pursed lips towards your nose and keep there for 7 seconds. Relax. (Repeat 3 sets)

B) Sit upright facing forward and keep your lips closed and teeth together. Smile as broadly as possible, without opening your lips, keep there for 5

counts and when relaxing start puckering your lips in a pointed kiss. Keep there for 5 counts and relax - repeat 10 times.

C) Move your lips into a puckered kiss and while relaxing the kiss keep your lips closed and curl your lips into your mouth across your teeth. Hold this position for a count of 10 and repeat 5 times.

D) Sit relaxed with your lips hardly open and pucker your lips outwards. While your lips are in the outward position, move your

puckered top lip towards your nose. Hold in this position for 10 counts and repeat 5 times.
