by Linda Robison

Considering a plastic surgery face lift, but cannot afford the high cost of a face lift? These days people are looking for inexpensive home remedies for face wrinkles and many have found that face exercises offer an effective and natural alternative to a face lift.

Face exercises are one of the best ways to get a face lift without surgery. When properly done, facial exercises can lift and tighten underlying muscles and smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. Why take a chance on bad face lifts when you can lift sagging cheeks and droopy jowls simply, inexpensively and without side effects or surgical risks. This is something even the best face lift creams can promise or deliver.

The concept of exercising facial muscles has been around for many years, however, some people feared that rubbing or massaging the skin would cause more wrinkles. However the truth is facial skin and muscles benefit from a good exercise and massage just as the rest of body.

Skin begins to lose vitality and elasticity as it ages. In addition, muscles start to sag and droop..sort of like melting wax. This makes us look tired and older. By performing facial exercises in a certain way, you not only help build up sagging muscles, but thicken the skin and stimulate blood flow bring much needed oxygen and nutrients to the skin.

There have been several studies published on the benefits of face exercises. Results from the Eureka Physical Therapy Center found that in short eight weeks, there was a 250% increase in muscle strength and a 35% increase in skin elasticity. Other studies show that face exercises produce firmer skin with more elasticity and an increase in collagen production.

Facial exercises are similar to body building in that you apply resistance or contraction to certain muscles of the face and neck. This helps to build the up muscles creating a nice lifted fuller look of the face. Also, since these exercises are performed with your fingers, the skin benefits from a nice massage bringing more oxygen and nutrients to the skin.

Try this sample exercise to reduce eye wrinkles:

1. Put one thumb from each hand at the outer corner of each eye. Thumbs should be facing downward toward your cheeks ” the rest of your fingers can rest on the top of your head.

2. Close your eyes and squeeze tightly. Slide your thumbs over the contracted eye muscles .moving from the corners of the eyes out towards your temples. The sliding motion over a contracted muscle is what makes this exercise so effective and doesn’t not stretch out or damage the skin.

3. Repeat 10 times and do it at least 5 days a week.

People have reported better skin tone and reduced eye puffiness in a few days. Which is why some call it the 3 day face lift.
