Facial Exercise To Tone The Face Muscles
Posted on Apr 03, 2007 | Comments 42
Facial exercises are used to stimulate blood flow and circulation, relieve tension, and improve overall appearance of the face.
As you get aged, it is normal that your facial muscles become slaggy, slack, and baggy.
Facial exercises promote a smooth and wrinkle free skin. As facial muscles loose firmness, the facial exercise helps in toning the facial muscles.
Facial exercises help in achieving anti aging, youthful, and wrinkle free face.
You can simply massage your face with your hands. Stroke your whole face with both hands across the cheeks and over your forehead.
Facial masks can be used to tone your facial muscles. Masks tighten the skin and make the skin healthier while preventing wrinkles. Protective creams are used to keep your skin healthy.
Facial Exercises For Face Muscles:
Forehead: Place your index fingers just above your eyes and pull down your eyes while raising your eyebrows. This facial exercise firms your forehead. Repeat this exercise for ten times.
Lips: Suck on your finger as hard as possible and slowly remove it. Repeat this facial exercise for ten times. This face exercise firms your lips.
Eyes: Sit with your eyes closed and relaxed. While keeping your eyes closed, look down and look up as far as possible. Repeat this face exercise for ten to fifteen times.
Sit straight with your eyes closed and relaxed. Lift your eyebrows and stretch your eyelids down as far as possible by keeping your eyes closed. Keep in this position for a count of ten, relax and repeat it for ten times.
Cheeks: Take your three center fingers and place them on the cheeks and push them down. At the same time, raise your cheeks by smiling as hard as you can. Keep your head back when you are performing this workout.
Neck: Sit straight and tilt your head back looking at the ceiling. Keep your lips closed and relaxed. Move your lower lip over your top lip as far as possible and keep for a count of ten. Relax and repeat for ten times.
Double chin: sit straight in a chair and tilt your head back and look at the ceiling. Keep your lips closed and relaxed. Make your lips round, count up to twenty and relax and bring your head back to the normal position.
Relax Facial Muscles :
- Open your lips as wide as they can go. Feel your cheeks, chin, and lips stretch to their limit. Hold and release and then repeat. This facial exercise relaxes your muscles of the face, increases circulation, and relieves tension and stress.
- Take a deep breath at once and exhale forcefully opening your mouth wide and stick your tongue out as far as it will go. Open your eyes and look up. It relieves tension in the face and throat, improves circulation and stimulates the eyes.
- Pinch your cheeks by taking flesh in your hands and squeeze. It improves blood circulation.
Facial exercises do not take much time and they are economical which helps in achieving healthy and glowing skin.

The best facial exercise, designed by nature itself, is to chew meat! Have you noticed that cheeks of vegetarians become soggy even in relatively young age?

Interesting article and posts. My research indicates that face exercises are a myth, but no penalty for trying!

hi ineed a very effective face exerise.I have a age spot,sagged cheek,fine line and a very tin skin around my face.
Hi i need a very effective face exercise.Because i have face fate problem.I want reduce face fat Pls tell me face exercise.
Learn how to reduce and get rid of that double chin or drooping or sagging jowls.
Use the only exercise guaranteed to improve your facial profile and help you achieve a sleeker neckline and the perfect jawline.
Do any of these reduce sagging skin underneath eyes? I am only 15 and have horrible eye bags.
Try to close both your eyes at the same time (to save time)using the lower eyelids and keep that position for a few seconds and repeat the same say 50 times. Do this for a few days. Increase duration if you like.
As with many exercises the more you do the better the results.
I have been doing the face workouts and i have notice a big change. My face muscles are now difined, and cut in shape!
I love it thanks so much…
I have pretty big dimples, and a slightly flat face. How can I make my cheeks bigger for my face to appear more attractive?
Fit Gal, this is the most ridiculous comment I have ever read!
Whether myth or not, facial exercises can benefit problems with the jaw. Relaxation of the face and neck muscles also help to reduce stress.
wow almost worked straight away! lol.
hi,
i just wanna ask, would it be possible that there are any excercise for me to develop facial dimples?
thanks..
Great article….keep up the good work….
I wonder how long will I have to do these exercises before I see any results!! I am looking for exercise to take away that fat that’s part of cheek but,continues under the eyes, boy!I hate it.
Those with more fat will notice immediate change too. This is only clear indication for you that it works. Don’t stop. Continue daily.. If a Change within 30 minutes, imagine the change after 1 month. You don’t become a bodybuilder with perfect abs, calfs, thighs, chest, shoulders, biceps and triceps within a day either.. And yes better to try than to have never tried.. and missed out on a dream facial look..
Great ideas. Pilates Training is the one to go for. I started I feel more relaxed and nowhere near as tired. I don’t hesitate to recommend Pilates to everyone.
good idea to exsercize the face, we need this more advertised out there however not many know about it, instead of facial surgery this i believe would be better unless your trying to change your identity this would be the way to go
hi,

well it sounds good.. but once you have started exercising and if you stop after some time is there any danger for your skin and facial muscles to get even worse than before?
Hi,
I am a gal with 23 yrs old.bit skinny and 5.8 height.my father is basically skinny.so am genetically skinny.I do not have flesh in cheeks.ppl say that since am genetically skinny..i dont get cheeks till i marry…plz help me to get the flesh in cheeks..I am entering the modeling…plz help me..
I have a question…it has been said that facial excersies for teenagers or young people (like for an example someone in the age of 16) could actually have the opposite effects and make the skin more saggy…so my question is: Is this a fact? in other words, do facial exercises have the same effect and are safe for all ages?
thank u
I started using the facial exercises a few years go and I found that they really delivered.
I then strayed, and yes as with any other muscle group, if you don’t use it, you will lose it.
I am back to using them again and in my 51 years, I find I am looking pretty good. The more I do, the better. :O)

I have very wide nostrils and I have tried the pencils (which I hope you weren’t joking about as I felt totally stupid) and it doesn’t seem to do anything. Is there another exercise you recommend as an alternative?
i am skinny and 25, i have no meat on my face, i will use this to improve my facial tone and help me with my tmj.
I am 19 and had a round face and double chin these excercise made my face a lot slimmer and even improved my crooked smile also if youre vegetarian chewing gum will help lose fat buid muscle in jaw line.. one question, do these excercises give you any wrinkles?
I do have a question. How much dayzz will it take to reduce facial fat….?? plz do reply..
Very nice article!
Here’s another simple skin firming exercise that is really effective. It’s quite easy to follow and you can do this while standing on your feet or sitting on a chair.
With your head pointing forward, slowly turn your head to the right and maintain this position for about 30 seconds. Go back to your starting position (face forward), and then slowly turn your head to the left. Hold for about 30 seconds.
Perform three sets of this simple neck exercise at least four times a day and soon, you’ll see great results on your facial and neck muscles.
Gooduck!
Hi! This is a good article on facial exercises
Allow me to add more to this though. “Turkey neck” or sagging neck skin is also a problem of many that can easily be resolved by following certain facial and neck exercises.
One such exercise can be done either while your sitting or standing up:
Tilt your head backwards and start a “chewing movement”. This will help tone your neck and upper chest muscles. Do this for about 30-45 seconds three times day.
Another simple “activity” you can do is to actually chew bubble gum. The constant chewing movement actually helps exercise your neck muscles, thus, don’t hesitate to pop that gum in your mouth anytime you want.
Hope this helps!
Cheers!
Hi…thanq for the Good inputs , was wondering if there is some handsfree massager or any equipment which does the massages the face thus increasing blood flow to the face without you needing to use your hand. Any such machine please lemme know.
Great ideas. i have notice a big change with exercises
i am 57 years old and i constantly worry about wrinkles and sagging facial skin….my girlfriend told me about the A E I O U exercise. as you say these letters , say them quickly with a pronounced bold form..opening you mouth wide as you say each one. do it 5 times in a row and rest 15 seconds and repeat the same thing again and do 5 sets of 5 3 times a day.
The Yamuna Save Face Program begins by lifting and aligning all the bones of the face. Research has shown that women lose more bone in their face than in other parts of the body. As we age the bones shrink and narrow in and down. By directly stimulating and aligning the bones of the face you are improving the bone quality and the look of your face. Once the bones are lifted and aligned then it is easy to tone the muscles and the skin.
Is facial exercise alright 4 someone who is 25, is it 2 early 2 start d exercises?
Is there any exercise dat I can do 2 have Dimples?
does using face excercises and getting more muscular cheeks and facial features make your face not so flat? Because I am asianand I have a really flat face and I was wondering if getting more muscles on my cheek would make my cheeks higher to make my face not flat looking.
Can this help me for a handsome face? I’m a 17 years old skinny guy and I want to have that beautiful face. And I heard that this can do the opposite of what it can do for older people if your young like my age, is that true?
