Exercises for weight loss of the face, cheeks and chin. Methods, weekly program

To lose weight, professional specialists have developed effective gymnastics called face-building.

What areas on the face can be corrected with exercise

On the face of a person are 57 muscles that perform facial, chewing and oculomotor movements. To improve the external contours, it is necessary to train all the facial muscles in the same way as the rest of the body.

Facial areas that can be easily corrected by fitness include the chin, cheeks, and forehead, since they focus the largest number of working muscles. It is more difficult to modify the cheekbones, eyebrows and nasolabial parts.

A positive result from performing facial gymnastics will depend on:

• age-related changes (the older, the harder);
• nutrition systems (with proper nutrition with a large number of fruits and vegetables, the rejuvenation process progresses faster);
• cosmetics used according to the individual needs of the skin (the effect is enhanced when using products with hyaluronic acid or its analogues);
• the presence of bad habits (smoking will slow down all the efforts);
• compliance with sleep and rest.

• You should always start with a warm-up to warm up your muscles. Options: rotation of the head in different directions, stretching and lowering the chin, patting on it, extending the jaw, singing the letters of the alphabet, swelling and retracting the cheeks.
• When training a particular muscle, it is important to represent its location, direction and path of contraction (beginners are advised to look into the anatomical atlas and see the localization and attachment points of the main facial muscles).
• Do not grimace in front of the mirror, since most exercises are performed statically and with some effort with the fingers. Thus, additional folds of skin and bruises will not form.
• The pressure of the fingers should be directed inward and not lead to a shift in the skin.
• Always use a mirror to maintain symmetry of the worked out areas of the face.
• The trained muscle should be strained and relaxed quickly and smoothly.

• When acting on one area of the face, it is important to ensure that other parts are not involved and are in a relaxed state.
• Training should take place in a calm atmosphere, morning and evening, every day (in the first month), and then you can go 2 to 3 times a week.

Simple ways to lose weight in the face

Exercises for weight loss can be performed using additional accessories, while walking or working. To do this, balloons for a children’s party, chewing gum, exercise machines for the mouth (for example, “Japanese lips” or a shaker simulator) are suitable.

Inflating balloons

In almost every technique of facial gymnastics, there is an exercise in inflating imaginary balls. It promotes the active work of the muscles of the mouth and reduces the subcutaneous layer of fatty tissue. If you need to quickly bring the cheeks into a more toned and built look, it is recommended to buy 10 balloons for daily home training and inflate them constantly.

Chewing gum

This is an extremely effective fitness for reducing puffiness of the cheeks. If you take 15 minutes for this procedure daily, then after 10 days the first result will be noticeable. Important features of this technique are to use the safest chewing gums (without sugar and dyes), as well as chew them immediately after eating.

An added bonus will be reassurance from the chewing process. Since it is proved that the process of chewing something reduces the production of cortisol (a stress hormone) and a person becomes less irritable.

Tongue Charge

Training exercises for the tongue are useful not only in the development of speech and oratory, but also for the formation of a beautiful outline of the lower jaw, the elimination of fatty deposits on the chin. Another plus will be a qualitative improvement in diction and easy pronunciation of difficult words and phrases, including tongue twisters.

Exercises:

1. Open your mouth wide and try to reach your chin with your tongue, then relax and reach for the tip of your nose. Repeat 20 times.
2. Fold lips and tongue in a tube, hold for 10 seconds. Make 20 repetitions.
3. Open your mouth with bared teeth. Sharp and tense tip of the tongue slightly forward. Hold for 10 seconds.
4. Alternate the previous exercise with the relaxation of the tongue in the form of a “scapula” (sticking it out of the mouth).
5. Make the tongue “cup” by lifting the sides and tip up. Hold position for 5 seconds. Repeat 10 times.
6. Alternate the “cup” (tension) with the “shoulder blade” (relaxation).
7. Run the tongue “slide” (open the mouth and rest with the tip of the tongue on the lower teeth, bending it up). Hold for 5 sec. Repeat 5 times.
8. Opening his mouth, press the tip of the tongue against the sky. Hold pressure for 5 seconds.
9. Draw circles in opposite directions with the tense tip of the tongue, without touching the lips.
10. Stick out your tongue as much as possible and lick your lips in a circle several times. Repeat the other way.

Combination of exercises with facial massage

Exercises for weight loss of the face will be much more effective if strengthened with a massage that improves blood circulation, relieves swelling and gives a healthier and radiant complexion. A facial massage for weight loss can be done with hands or a towel.

For manual massage for comfortable manipulations with the face, it is better to use a special oil with a subtle aroma.

All movements with fingers and palms should be directed strictly along the massage lines, starting from the central part of the face and gradually moving towards the temporal lobes. Massage the forehead correctly in the direction from the eyebrows to the hair (in no case not across). The neck is massaged from the base to the chin and across. One of the popular self-massage techniques with line directions is shown in the figure.

Another magic remedy for facial massage is liquid honey. Fingers of both hands should be moistened in honey and performing patting movements on dry cheeks for 5 minutes. By regularly resorting to this technique, you can quickly reduce the swollen cheeks.

If you have a significant second chin, you can perform kneading actions (stroking, pinching, rolling with your fingers with the capture of the skin and subcutaneous tissue). This will lead to increased blood circulation in this zone, lymphatic outflow and increased skin turgor with the simultaneous breakdown of body fat.

An energetic bath towel massage is good at home. For him, it is necessary in advance to prepare a warm decoction of herbs (suitable for the type of skin) and soak a hard towel with it. Twice a day after conducting facial gymnastics perform pats.

The correct technique:

• roll a small towel;
• hands to take at both ends;
• pat on the face in the direction from bottom to top (5-10 claps per zone).

Facial weight loss through simple exercises and massage is a great alternative to expensive cosmetic procedures, bringing a more pronounced rejuvenation effect and requiring a minimum amount of time.
