Workout For Your Facial Muscles
September 14, 2007
A good workout for your face can be given without using expensive creams. Follow these six facial exercises and say good-bye to those wrinkle lines. These exercises will only take ten minutes from your hectic schedule. It is crucial that you follow the techniques with care.
Youthful Glow:
- With index fingers and thumbs hold the top rim of your ears and lift slightly, massaging in small rotations.
- Move down, pulling your ears out gently and massaging.
- When you reach the lobes, pull down and massage.
- Massage up towards the top rim again for about a minute. This action stimulates the flow of blood to the face.
- Finally, using small quick, circular movements, begin to massage all the crevices or spiral of the ears.
- Use the pads of your index fingers.
Lower- Eyelid Lift:
- Place pads of middle fingers at outer corners of each eye.
- Slowly raise lower eyelids as though squinting into the sun. Do this in four or six upward movements.
- Raise eyebrows for a stronger lift. With lower lids still raised, close your eyes and squeeze tightly upwards or almost close the lids.
- Hold for a count of 10. Now slowly release, open your eyes, relax and breathe.
- Repeat this once more.
- Make sure your eyes look straight ahead.
Smooth Forehead Lines:
- Place all your fingers just above raised eyebrows.
- Close your eyes and feel a strong pull downwards with your brow, eyes and nose.
- At the same time push up slowly with your fingers on your forehead – from eyebrows to hair line – and hold for five minutes.
- Repeat once.
- This is like ironing out your wrinkles.
Turkey Neck Eliminator
- Raise your chin while slowly drawing up the centre of your lower lip over your top lip.
- Place your tongue tip at the base of your gums. Hold for 10 minutes, relax, and repeat once again.
Lower Face Lift
- Place lower lip over top lip. Stretch chin up and smile.
- Lift chin slightly. Hold for 6 to 10 counts.
- Release slowly. Repeat this once more.
- This will help to get rid of jowls.
Basic Upper Cheek Lift
- Place three fingers on each side of the face, in the hollow of your cheeks just below the cheekbones.
- The back teeth should be lightly touching the top lip slightly raised.
- Slowly lift the upper cheek in six movements.
- Hold for count of six, making small pulsating movements.
- Return slowly in six movements. Repeat.
- Keep your eyes relaxed.
How To Do It
- There is no cream that can lift a muscle – you have to exercise it. Facial muscles can be trained to become firm and strong.
- Work your face muscles for at least 10 minutes a day, four days a week. When you have built the muscle, then two days is sufficient.
- Do the exercises at any time as long as you are not tired.
- Learn a few exercises and then play music that follows your rhythm.
- Use a mirror to check what you are doing.
- Muscles should feel stronger in the first fortnight. Subsequently you will notice changes.
- Results depend on age – some see improvements in two months, for others it may take four months.
- Like all exercise, you need to work at it.
