Face exercises have been compared to a mini face lift procedure -- but without the surgery and pain. While you won't see 100% improvement after just one session, daily facial exercises actually lifts up sagging muscles and this is the key to a younger, firmer face.
When age, our face becomes flat and muscles begin to sag. However, a plastic surgery face lift can only lift muscles, not fill them out - which is why a cosmetic facelift surgery never looks natural. Face exercise are an excellent alternative to a surgical face lift! Exercises are a great treatment for under eye hollows.....
Facial exercises or facial resistance training is very similar to weight lifting for the body, except you will be using your hands and gravity, instead of weights.
Free facial exercises are probably the closest you can get to a face lift without surgery and without the high face lift costs. Facial exercising is a non-invasive face lift -- without any side effects! And the wonderful results cannot be achieved with any face lift cream, face lift tape or any product claiming to be a face lift in a bottle.
These movements go beyond toning --- Your actually building muscle!
In addition, face exercises bring more oxygen to the cells of the skin, which results in clearer, healthier skin that has a luminous glow and healthy color. There are many studies attesting to the benefits of face and eye exercises.
Face exercises should be done a clean face that has been moisturized. And extend your skin rejuvenation by applying pure crystal serum vitamin C to further increase collagen production, nourish the skin, and fight free radicals. Click on the picture to the right to learn more.
Keep in mind when exercising the face, it is important to concentrate on applying pressure to the muscles underneath the skin, not just stretching the skin. It’s muscle building that we’re after here.
Still not sure if you should try these free facial exercises? Take a look at some celebrity face lifts -- how many bad face lifts have you seen? Do you want to take that chance and wind up not looking like yourself? I don't!
Also, consider the exuberant face lift costs and you'll see why natural face lifts through facial exercising is one of the best home remedies for face wrinkles -- in addition to the derma roller and copper peptides.
Take a Picture Before Starting Face Exercises
Before starting you might want to take a picture of yourself now -- and again about every 3 weeks. Make sure to do so in the same light and same time of day for a true comparison. The first thing I noticed was how my skin felt after a few months. It felt firmer with less skin play (i.e. – loose skin). Some people actually reported results in as little as 3 days -- which is why it's sometimes called the 3 day face lift.
Ok Ready To Begin Your Free Facial Exercises?
Get ready to experience a fuller face, firmer chin, and more defined cheekbones. The facial exercises below outline cheek lifting exercises, face jowl exercises, exercises for puffy eyes, and exercises for a fuller face.
Perform each face exercise for a count of 10 (10 reps) and repeat each exercise 3 times (3 sets) for a total of 30 exercises per section.
1. Eyebrow Lift – Provides an instant lift to the whole eye area. Results are more lasting and improved with repeated exercise.
Take 3 fingers of each hand and place them directly under your eyebrows.
Push eyebrows upward and hold -- then try to contract eyebrows downward.
Hold for count of 10, then let go and relax.
Repeat for 3 sets.
2. Lower Eyelid lift – Firms and builds the lower eye lid. This one seems a little tricky for some people because of their concerns for under eye wrinkles and lines. You want to make sure you are concentrating on the muscle underneath the skin. .........
With eyes open, place three fingers of each hand on the top of each cheekbone and put your head all the way back.
Now try to close or squint lower eye lids, while keeping fingers in place.
Hold for count of 10, then let go and relax.
Repeat for 3 sets.
3. Cheek lift – This builds up and lifts the cheek muscles.
Place the butt of your palms on top of each cheek bone.
Smile as wide and hard as you can. You will feel your cheek muscles and your hands rise up a bit.
Using the butt of your palm, try to push your cheek muscles down.
Hold for count of 10, then let go and relax.
Repeat for 3 sets.
4. Jowl lift – Helps tighten sagging pouches along the jaw bone .... the ones that develop at the lower corners of the mouth. Over time this droop sometimes changes the appearance of the face….giving it a square-ish look. See picture of aging Face Shapehere.
Place your thumb and forefinger on either side of your chin – feeling your jaw bone.
With a closed mouth, make a smile -- drawing the corners of your mouth out toward your ears.
Using your thumb and forefinger try to hold the muscle in place…creating resistance...as if to stop the smile.
Hold for count of 10, then let go and relax.
Repeat for 3 sets. On this one, I've done almost up to 5 sets while driving in my car and got great results. Pictures will be coming soon.
5. Neck lift – Helps firm and tighten the front of the neck
Press your tongue up into the roof of your mouth.
Tilt your head back as far as you can and keeping your tongue firmly pressed to the roof of your mouth.
Now lower head and bring your chin down toward you chest, but remember to keep your tongue against the roof of your mouth.
Hold for count of 10, then let go and relax.
Repeat for 3 sets.
Do these face exercises at least five times per week and continue building muscle. In a few weeks you should start to see - and feel - slight results, but truly dramatic results can be seen within six months to a year.
