Want to look younger without Botox or plastic surgery? Face yoga can help strengthen and tone your face muscles.
Gary Sikorski is a certified facial toning yoga instructor and says, “These exercises are a natural alternative to plastic surgery. He further explained how face yoga can benefit you: it can increase blood circulation and that the skin will “become more elastic and softer to the touch and that improvements can be seen in as little as two to three weeks.
You have to be consistent with your routine to see all the benefits including: “widen eyes, lift cheeks, lift mouth corners and firm the jawline.” Over time, as muscles get toned and lifted, skin becomes tighter, “helping to smooth away fine lines.”
Physical therapist Sandra Gail Frayna says, “Facial-focused yoga exercises can help you achieve a more sculpted and slimmer look by allowing muscles to relax and appear more youthful.”
And scientific evidence agrees. A five-month study finds that a 30-minute daily facial yoga program improved the facial appearance of middle-aged women, leaving them with a younger appearance, with full upper and lower cheeks.
