Facial Exercises To Smooth Your Cheeks, Follow These 7 Movements
JAKARTA - Chubby or chubby cheeks are generally caused by sagging muscles and piles of fat. To make it taut and the jaw look taper, it takes a special movement or treatment. Well, the natural way that can be done is to do facial exercises regularly.
How effective is facial exercise to reduce sagging and chubby? Launching Healthline, Tuesday, May 18, Dr. Jeffrey Spiegel, head of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery at Boston University School of Medicine, explains that facial exercises can make you thinner if done regularly.
However, this needs to be balanced with a diet to maintain a balanced body weight, adequate nutrition, and body hydration. Because everyone has a different jawbone structure, this is one of the factors that makes facial exercises not as effective as imagined.
Spiegel's message, there's nothing wrong with trying facial exercises regularly. Because this is the most natural way to deal with the signs of aging without worrying.
Here are 6 facial exercise movements that can be done regularly.
Pronounce vowels
When you pronounce vowels one by one such as A, I, U, E, O, your facial muscles will feel tight. This first movement can be done in a sequence of 8 times and can be done in a sitting or standing position.
Although it is impossible to reduce chubby cheeks in 2 days, doing this movement regularly will not only tighten the cheek muscles but also the face will feel more relaxed.
Raised the chin
The next facial movement, take a sitting position so that the body is more balanced. Then turn your head back and your eyes look up. The chin points forward, imagine the lower lip touching the ceiling, and the lower chin feels tight. This movement can be done for up to 10 seconds.
Moving the jaw
This movement trains the muscles and tightens the skin around the jaw. The trick, open the mouth as wide as possible and feel the skin is pulled tighten. This open and close mouth movement can be done up to 3 times.
Movement of the tongue
Usually, when eating the tongue has a role to taste food and direct it. Now, to tighten your facial muscles and make them even tapered, move your tongue forward. First it points to the nose and then to the chin. Each direction can be done for 10 seconds.
Frown
In the work of the facial muscles, the frowning face is centered on the frowning of the mouth. Make the first movement of wrinkling your mouth forward and your cheeks deflating. Then smile or loosen mouth wrinkles. Each movement can be done for approximately 10 seconds.
Puffy face
This movement is similar to that of a mackerel, by inflating the cheeks and tightening to the right and left. Since this movement requires holding your breath, it can be done for 5 seconds in each direction.
Smile
Isn't facial exercise with a smile the easiest movement to do? You can do this at any time because moving your muscles when you smile can loosen the fat around your cheeks. If you are at home and you have no reason to smile, do this movement 2-3 times.
