I've never done the exercises but I can't imagine that working your face more would give you less wrinkles.  I get fillers twice a year and the areas around my mouth wear off quicker than under my eyes just from the movement.

Re: Who believes in Facial Exercise/Facial Flex

Whatever tv show is on that hosts 5 doctors/plastic surgeons - I happen to flip to it last night and they were discussing wrinkles. They were all pretty much in agreement that it is movement that causes wrinkles. And they specifically said, not the sun.

 

(All right, I can see that too much unprotected sun exposure might be a cause of dryness, etc.)...

 

Are facial exercises different than facial massage? Because I do hold to facial massage. Facial massage, which is beyond good topicals, to stimulate collagen production and strengthen muscle memory.

 

There is always more to this story - like eating a clean diet, and a bunch of etc.

I bought it the first time it was on QVC and have been using it ever since.

 

You have to use it consistently.  It works, and I have no intention of stopping.

I use it too but not consistently. It does keep my face and jawline tighter.  I travel with one too.

muscle spasms and soreness 


For me, I also felt soreness in my mouth also.  Not the same day but if I did it say 3 days in a row, on the 4th day my lower jaw would ache.

I use it once a day, and it works. I have been adding face yoga (you tube it) as well. It tones facial muscles without dangerous emfs, which some machines are known for causing neurological problems. If eating and talking toned our faces, I'd be the cover model for face muscle inc.

Re: Who believes in Facial Exercise/Facial Flex

I recently started using mine again. After about 2 weeks I definitly saw an improvement in my jaw line. A tutorial on line said to fold your upper lip over you teeth when you use it to avoid lip lines and to put your two pointer fingers at the base of and to the left and right side of you nose to avoid nasal labial folds.
