As you get older, facial muscles will naturally begin to lose elasticity and flexibility, which leads to wrinkles and a saggy appearance. Face yoga strengthens the 55 muscles of your face and is a great alternative to common anti-aging remedies. The yoga techniques are designed to stimulate collagen and elastin production in the middle layer of the skin, giving you smoother, tighter-looking skin and a more radiant complexion. If you practice face yoga regularly, it can smooth your wrinkles, lift eyes, reduce puffiness, tone cheeks, firm jawlines and create a healthy glow. Doing the following face yoga exercises once or twice a day, you will see results faster than you think!
