Isometric facial muscle exercises are an effective method of smoothing facial wrinkles. Certain muscles are trained so that sagging skin becomes firmer again, blood circulation improves and the connective tissue becomes more elastic.

 

The five isometric exercises

 

Double chin and sagging chin: With the neck tilted back, push the lower lip forwards towards the nose. Hold for a few seconds, then relax.

 

Reduction of nasolabial folds: Hold the muscles in the mouth and nose area with your thumb and index finger while contorting your mouth to laugh. Hold for a few seconds, then relax.

 

Crow's feet around the eyes: Pinch both eyes tightly together. Hold for a few seconds, then release the tension and slowly open your eyes again.

 

Dark circles: Close your eyes so that only a small gap remains open. Try to blink against the resistance. Then close your eyes completely and relax.

 

Vertical forehead wrinkles: Stretch the forehead crease with your thumb and index finger. At the same time, try to wrinkle your forehead. Hold for a few seconds, then relax.
