Facial exercise can really keep the face muscles toned up

Women are willing to try anything to look younger, and engage in all kinds of methods to get rid of wrinkles. This is why researchers decided to test a new way for them to preserve their youth, which is both easy and effective. They revealed that spending at least 30 minutes every day to perform facial exercise should slow down the aging of the skin and tone the muscles.

Women are desperate about looking younger

There is an entire anti-aging industry out there that promotes all kinds of methods to keep us young. They start from creams which combat wrinkles and go as far as plastic surgeries and chemical treatments for the skin. Now, a team of researchers came up with the easiest method of them all, facial exercise.

This probably sounds like the best method out there, since it’s both cheap and doesn’t imply complicated procedures which come with risks. However, facial exercise might look a bit too simple to actually be effective, so the researchers decided to investigate its benefits and disadvantages.

Facial exercise toned up the muscles of the face and made the women look younger

They performed a study on a group of 27 women with ages between 40 and 65. They had to perform a session of 30 minutes of facial exercise every day, and were taught 32 individual positions they should put their faces in. These positions had been developed by one of the authors, Gary Sikorski, who is an expert in face yoga.

The trial lasted for 20 weeks. During the first 8 weeks, they had to perform one facial exercise session daily, then they switched to one session every other day. Also, they were photographed when the trial started, at the end of the first 8 weeks, and then at the end of the trial.

A team of dermatologists, who didn’t assist to these sessions, had to study their faces throughout the trial. They noticed how the women’s cheeks had become fuller. Also, the average age they assessed dropped throughout the experiment. This means that performing regular facial exercise can really tone up the face muscles and make women appear a few years younger.

The study was published in the journal JAMA Dermatology.
