Face Yoga: Exercises for Healthy and Youthful Skin
Face yoga is a simple and effective way to strengthen facial muscles, increase blood circulation and refresh skin tone. Like the muscles in our body, our facial muscles also require attention to stay young and firm. Face yoga helps to increase skin firmness, smooth wrinkles and create a natural lifting effect without the need for complicated procedures.
Benefits of Face Yoga
• Increases blood circulation : Exercises stimulate blood flow to the facial area, thus helping the skin receive more oxygen and nutrients.
• Reduces swelling : Face yoga helps reduce swelling, especially around the eyes and chin area.
• Relaxes muscles : Facial muscles often become tense due to stress or facial expressions, which causes wrinkles. Facial yoga relaxes the muscles and softens the expression.
• Provides firmness and flexibility : Regular exercises strengthen the muscles and help maintain a youthful, firm facial shape.
How to Prepare for Face Yoga?
Before starting your workouts, cleanse your face and apply a light oil or moisturizer to keep your skin soft and ready. Adding a special oil-based elixir can increase lubrication, give your skin elasticity, and enhance the benefits of the massage. The oil locks in moisture, providing comfort and protection during your workouts.
Simple Exercises for Skin Health
1. Cheek Strengthening Exercise
• How to do it : Puff out your cheeks and slowly shift the air from one cheek to the other. This creates gentle pressure on the cheek muscles.
• Benefits : Tightens the cheeks, giving them a fuller and more shaped appearance.
• Recommendation : Repeat the exercise slowly 5–7 times until you feel a slight stretch in the muscles.
2. Exercise for the Eye Area
• How to do it : Place your middle fingers under your eyebrows, raise your eyebrows upwards, and hold this position for 10 seconds, slowly closing your eyes.
• Benefits : Tightens the skin around the eyes and reduces swelling, eliminating signs of fatigue.
• Suggestion : You can reduce bloating after waking up by doing this exercise in the morning.
3. Chin and Sub-Facial Lift
• How to do it : Lift your head up and jut your chin slightly forward, feeling a gentle stretch in your neck and jawline. Hold for 5–7 seconds, then relax.
• Benefits : Strengthens the chin, reduces the appearance of a double chin and highlights facial features.
• Recommendation : Repeat this exercise 5 times to increase the effect.
4. Tension Relieving Facial Massage
• How to : Using your fingertips, massage your face in light circular motions, starting from the center and working toward the temples. Pay special attention to the forehead, cheeks, and chin area.
• Benefits : Massage increases blood circulation, relieves tension and relaxes facial muscles.
• Recommendation : You can enhance the relaxation and regeneration effect by performing the massage with an oil-based elixir that nourishes and moisturizes the skin more deeply.
