One method that has been touted for more than fifty years to reduce facial wrinkles and aging is to exercise the facial muscles. One of the original book about it titled "Lift Up Your Face 'from 1950, and I actually have a copy in the library of my plastic surgery. The concept was adopted and continues to write about today, is now even extending the theme to include the practice of yoga Facelifts , Facelifts acupuncture and electrical stimulation devices that promise to tighten the face of 'muscle build-up' through.Having a good knowledge of the facial muscles and facial aging process, it is difficult to understand how most of these approaches have the hope that effective. Short platysma neck muscle (which I really think could be tightened and may have very little effect tightening), the rest of the facial muscles are quite small and will have little impact on keeping face lift because they are responsible for facial expressions and no support network or face suspension. Face age as the ligaments become loose skin, which then allows the sagging skin and fat. (With the exception of the lips and chin) ligaments System, known as the SMAS, and leather on it is what the fall of the muscles so to speak, and create wobble jaw and neck, the hallmarks of aging and sagging face and neck.
It is important to appreciate that the facial aging does not occur by muscle weakness or sagging muscles. This is mainly a problem of skin that lost its attachments to the underlying muscle and bone. This ligament, known as the osteocutaneous ligaments and ligaments musculocutaneous, is what actually weaken through near constant facial movements and gravity. The facial muscles can not prevent this problem, no matter the 'strict' how efforts to make them. In fact, exercise (making extreme facial expressions) may be to improve the aging face by making the bad wrinkles by excessive movement and excessive.
One exception to the concept of disability in the neck muscles. Platysma muscle is a neck sling suspension. With age, not torn in half and become a bit loose. Tighten the muscles, which only ever tighten the muscles in the face of actual or neck lift, could have several potential benefits. Because it is a muscular sling, can actually cause a slight angle cervicomental tightening, which will produce the effects of the spirit. However, the biggest contributor to the neck vibrate loose skin and excess fat. In most cases, the contribution of platysma muscle weakness is usually quite small.
facial exercise to 'lift the face of aging is fundamentally flawed approach. For real prevention or improvement in the face of aging, stick to the tried and true method, Botox, injectable fillers, skin resurfacing, and finally surgical excisions of skin beauty and procedures.
