That sagging you see in your face – you know – those droopy eyelids, the softening around your mouth and the beginning of a wattle are a result of your facial muscles losing their youthful, elastic contours. Using facial exercise rather than injections or surgery is a very smart choice. Yes, you save lots of money and you look like you only younger but the most important aspect of using facial exercise is that you are out of harm’s way.

That sagging you see in your face – you know – those droopy eyelids,Use Facial Exercise Before You Try Plastic Surgery Articles the softening around your mouth and the beginning of a wattle are a result of your facial muscles losing their youthful, elastic contours.   

As time goes on full blown aging will begin to attack your face and neck; this attack will result in deeper frown lines, lips that shrivel plus folds and creases will embed in your cheeks. Even your nose tip will begin to droop while the mouth corners turn downward and the vertical neck cords become apparent. 

Aging in the face can destroy your confidence and this desperation is what typically what sends women running first to the cosmetic counter hoping to find a miracle in a jar. When it is discovered that slathering your face with costly skin care items does nothing to stop the downward slide of your facial features, many resort to quasi help via a syringe and even surgery. 

When the choice is made to fill the face with chemical preparations that plump and paralyze your features will be altered for a very long time. Your friends may or may not immediately recognize you and how will they react to identifying your voice but seeing a completely different face? Many celebrities have their faces altered with injections and when they do, it is like they have joined the “cookie cutter” club because they now resemble one another. 

Just recently Sharon Osbourne joined that club when she allowed her face to be injected and she hardly looks recognizable. Does she look younger? Have these procedures enhanced her appearance? Paying for results that you may or may not like is a concern when you choose the liquid facelift. As Julia Roberts recently said, “your face tells a story and it shouldn’t be a story about your drive to the doctor’s office.” 

Well, if using injections does not make you look younger, will surgery create a prettier, younger looking face? It’s doubtful. Although there are a few good facelifts in evidence in the entertainment industry most surgically altered faces tend to look a little odd. Walking around Rodeo Drive, having lunch at the Polo Lounge or drinks at McCormick’s is an eye opening experience.  Why? The array of surgically altered faces is astounding and those faces are in evidence everywhere.

Women beware! If you have been toying with the idea of using plumping and paralyzing injections to prop up your face, you are walking on a slippery slope because injections and surgery do nothing to stop facial aging, it only masks it. If you truly want to enjoy a younger looking, naturally pretty face that looks like you only radiant and alive, you must use facial exercise. Exercise will indeed help your face stay lifted and tightened. 

Jackie Silver, author of Aging Backwards – Secrets to Staying Young, insists that exercise is the fountain of youth. Exercise for your face provides the same type of toning and lifting that you witness and enjoy when you exercise your body. Just as your body appreciates the good feelings from oxygenated blood coursing through your arms, legs and torso, your face will enjoy the same benefits.

Using facial exercise rather than injections or surgery is a very smart choice. Yes, you save lots of money and you look like you only younger but the most important aspect of using facial exercise is that you are out of harm’s way. You are safe - No surgery, no drugs, no sutures, no disappointment, no infection, no risk and no pain.

 The downward slide of our facial muscles into other muscle groups is what creates the look of old in our faces. When you examine your face and you see crepy eye lids, pouches around the mouth, forehead lines and the general look of facial flabbiness, these areas can be exercised. Most users of isometric and contraction exercises claim they look ten to fifteen years younger without ever undergoing invasive procedures. 

It just makes sense to use exercise before consulting a doctor. Consider this: if your arms and legs are flabby what would you do to correct that out of shape look? Wouldn’t you enlist the help of a physical fitness trainer who can guide you to create a healthier body? Of course you would! 

Using facial exercise first means you are in control of your destiny and you will love the results as you experience lifting, toning and tightening of your once droopy facial features. Teri Hatcher, well known actress, is on record saying, “see something you love in the mirror every day.” That would be you!
