Whatever women do to prolong the youth of their face. They buy expensive creams and other miraculous remedies, visit beauty salons, undergoing terrible procedures, and even lie down under the knife of a plastic surgeon. Many girls do not even think that they can solve the problem in safer ways.
Exercises for the face and neck are very effective. They will tone the muscles, visibly tighten the skin and smooth wrinkles. And you can do it anywhere: at home, sitting in front of the TV, or in the office at the computer. In a few months, thanks to such gymnastics, the face will again become young and beautiful.
Exercise Performance Features
The skin on the neck and face is so delicate that you need to handle it very carefully so as not to injure and stretch the epidermis. It is believed that after thirty years any facial expression can turn into a new wrinkle. Therefore, in order to maintain youth, you do not need to frown forehead, squint your eyes, and indeed smile.
But recently, this opinion is often disputed. Plastic surgeons have noticed that those who have well-developed facial muscles look younger. Such people include teachers, artists and television presenters. They use a lot of facial muscles, so they have well-defined facial contours and more elastic skin.
Exercises for the face and neck are based on the construction of active grimaces, so they are so effective. Gymnastics affects the deep layers of the epidermis, which masks, creams and massage are not capable of. Thanks to exercises, blood circulation in the tissues improves, muscles strengthen and skin turgor rises, as a result of which the face becomes young and attractive. And you can do gymnastics at any age: at 15 and 60 years old.
Correct execution
- Before the start of the course, it is recommended to photograph the face in full face and profile. Then you need to conduct a control survey every 15 days. So the result after gymnastics will be clearly visible.
- It is better to do in front of the mirror, sitting on a chair. So you can track the correctness of their actions.
- Before starting any exercise for the oval of the face and neck, you need to take a starting position. Straighten your back, shoulders back and straighten, pull the tummy, tighten the buttocks and hips.
- During the exercises, fix the face muscles with your hands. Some cosmetologists recommend doing gymnastics in cotton gloves so that your fingers do not slip. But in fact, it is difficult to control and feel hand movements in them.
- Follow the instructions clearly, as a violation of the execution technique threatens the appearance of new wrinkles. Therefore, you can additionally visit a cosmetologist who teaches face gymnastics, or watch training video lessons.
- Develop a habit of doing exercises for the muscles of the face and neck every day. The main thing is not to be lazy and not to take breaks, then the result will be visible in a week. Exercise for 21 days, and facial gymnastics will become routine, like brushing your teeth.
Face preparation
Before gymnastics, it is better to wash your face with a special tool, if there is such an opportunity, to clean it from pollution. After this, you need to apply oil, nutritious or baby cream. It is necessary to pay attention not only to the face, but also to the neck.
When the product is absorbed, it is recommended to warm the skin with a light massage. To do this, do not pat your palms or lightly tap with your fingertips on the forehead, cheeks, chin and neck for several minutes. Such a massage will prepare the muscles of the face for further stress and prevent stretching of the skin.
Now you can start gymnastics. At the initial stage, a few exercises will be enough, so choose two or three and proceed. Increase the load and number of approaches gradually.
Vowels

Perhaps, many competed among themselves in childhood in performing this exercise, not even suspecting that it tightens the oval of the face. The technique of this gymnastics is both complex and simple. Its meaning is to try to reach the tip of the nose with the tongue.

This is breathing exercises, which is part of the eponymous and famous technique developed for weight loss. Classes will help to generally improve the appearance, strengthen the muscles of the forehead, cheeks and neck. Due to the improvement of blood circulation, the face will acquire a fresh color.
The main advantage of gymnastics is its simplicity. No need to exhaust yourself with difficult workouts. Only two exercises for the face and neck contain bodyflex in its complex. At the same time, they have a wide spectrum of action, thanks to which many muscles are worked out.
The technique is based on proper breathing, which nourishes the blood with oxygen. That is why the tone of the face increases, the skin becomes toned and supple.
Features of bodyflex
For this type of gymnastics, it is important to breathe correctly. First you need to let the air out of the lungs, then take a deep breath. Again, you need to exhale through the mouth, and then completely draw the stomach in. Now the breath is held for ten seconds, and again - a breath. The procedure is of great importance, therefore it is very important not to disrupt it.
If you hold your breath, you need to massage the points of the face: around the lips, under the eyes, between the eyebrows and so on. These places need a little pressure with the fingertips, and then let go. All these actions are done during a lack of breathing. Manipulations are repeated about ten times for each active point.
Consider two miraculous exercises for lifting the face and neck, which are part of the breathing technique and help to look younger for several years.
Exercise "Lion"
This element of gymnastics perfectly corrects the oval, eliminates wrinkles around the nose and mouth, strengthens the muscles of the cheeks and around the eyes. Take the starting position. Spread the legs about thirty centimeters wide, with your hands resting on your hips just above your knees. Taz a little lower down, as if you were going to sit down, keep your head straight. Now you can start bodyflex gymnastics, followed by retraction of the abdomen and breath holding.
Gather your lips in a small circle and open your eyes very wide, trying to raise them as high as possible. This action will perfectly tighten the muscles under the eyes. Now the formed circle from the lips needs to be lowered down, maximally straining the nasal region and cheeks. Then stick out your tongue completely without relaxing your mouth. This will strengthen the muscles of the neck and chin. In this position, you should hold out for at least eight seconds. After returning to the starting position. Repeat this exercise to strengthen the muscles of the face and neck five times.
The ugly grimace exercise
Here is the same starting position as in the Lion exercise. When you finish the introductory part, keep your back straight and try to bring the lower jaw forward so that it protrudes beyond the upper teeth. After that, you need to stick out your lower lip and stretch your neck up, straining your muscles. Now slowly raise your head and try to reach the ceiling with extended lips. At the same time, the feet should be pressed to the floor, and the arms should be folded back. We count to eight and return to the starting position. We also do five exercise approaches.
Recommendations
After exercise, a slight tingling sensation or slight itching on the skin of the face and neck should be felt. This indicates an increase in blood circulation in the tissues, which means that everything is done correctly. If there is no such sensation, you should work on the mistakes.
At one time, you do not need to try to complete all the proposed exercises for the face and neck or set a record for the number of approaches. Loads should be moderate but regular.
After gymnastics, it is useful to do a contrasting wash or rub your face with an ice cube. This will provide additional stimulation of blood vessels and improve blood circulation in the tissues. After this procedure, it is recommended to apply the usual cream to the skin.
Perform the exercises correctly, and you will return to the face and neck the former elasticity and fit.
