How to Exercise Facial Muscles





 

A workout regimen is an excellent way to tone your muscles, lose inches, and control skin from sagging. Doing facial exercises, or facial yoga, is a natural way to make your face look younger by firming muscles and reducing wrinkles. These are also good exercises to do if you have a muscle problem on your face, creating stronger muscles for a toned and more confident look. There are approximately 50 muscles in your face, and exercising them has the added benefit of helping eye strain and releasing neck and facial tension. Putting some work into your facial muscles can help give you a more attractive face to show the world.

 

Pull on your forehead with your index finger. Using just your fingers, you can apply pressure to your forehead so that shifting your eyebrows can strengthen that part of your face. This can help smooth lines on your forehead.
·        Put your index fingers just above each of your eyes.
·        Pull down on your eyes while trying to raise your eyebrows.
·        Repeat 10 times to help firm your forehead.

 

Push your forehead with your hands. This simple exercise uses your palms to create resistance while flexing your eyebrows. Doing this workout will help create smooth lines on your forehead.
·        Place each of your palms on the sides of your forehead, the bottom of each palm resting on your eyebrows. Your palms should be holding the skin firmly in place.
·        Raise your eyebrow muscles, like you are surprised, then lower them, like you are angry.
·        Raise and lower 10 times, then raise and hold for 30 seconds. Lower and hold for 30 seconds, then repeat the up and down against 10 more times.


Do brow lifts. Using your fingers and your eyebrows, you can exercise the muscles in your forehead. Just a little bit of pressure can create enough resistance for a good exercise.
·        Using two fingers in a peace sign, and place your fingernails over each eyebrow.
·        Gently push that skin down with your fingers, then push your brows up and down.
·        Repeat the up and down motion with your brows 10 times.
·        Do 3 sets of 10, take a short rest, then do another 3 sets of 10.

Do an eye squeeze. Work your eyelids further by squeezing your eyes shut with a little stretching resistance from your mouth. Because it uses so many different muscles, this exercise can help to stretch out your entire face, not just your eyes.[5]
·        Pull your lips downward so that your facial muscles tighten, then pull your lips to one side.
·        Squeeze one eye shut for one second, then repeat 10 times, holding your lips to the side. Then do the other eye.
·        Do 3 sets of 10 for each eye, take a short rest, then do another 3 sets of 10.

Stretch your face while holding your eyes. This will help to build the muscles around your eyelids to give you more awake-looking eyes. Use your fingers to provide some resistance to the basic action of opening and closing your eyes.
·        Make a C around your eyes using your thumbs and index finger. Make sure your index finger is over your eyebrow and thumb against your cheek.
·        Shut your eyes, and slowly squeeze your eyelids close together. Relax the tension without opening your eyes
·        Repeat squeezing and relaxing your eyelids 25 times.
