Strengthening cheekbone definition with five exercises
Facial exercises serve as a non-invasive way to improve facial aesthetics, specifically the definition of cheekbones. These exercises target toning and strengthening the facial muscles, which can eventually contribute to more defined cheekbones over time. By integrating these easy exercises into your daily regimen, you can achieve a noticeable improvement without resorting to cosmetic procedures.
The fish face technique
Pull your cheeks and lips inward like you're making a fish face, and then attempt to smile while maintaining this position. This exercise works the muscles in your cheeks, giving them a workout that can result in more sculpted cheekbones. Hold the pose for approximately 10 seconds before releasing it. To get the most out of this exercise, repeat it 10 times.
The air-puffing exercise
Begin by inhaling deeply and puffing air into one side of your cheek. Hold the air in for 10 seconds, then shift it to the other cheek without exhaling. This alternating movement engages both cheeks equally, promoting symmetrical muscle definition around your cheekbones. Repeat this exercise 10 times on each side.
Cheek lifts for higher definition
Smile as big as you can and put your fingers on the top of each cheekbone. Apply some pressure and push the skin up towards your eyes. You should be firm but not too rough. Pushing the skin up works and strengthens the muscles under your cheeks. This helps lift your cheekbones and make them more noticeable after a while. Do this exercise 15 times.
The X-O pronunciation exercise
Saying "X" and "O" in an exaggerated way works the facial muscles around your cheeks and jawline, improving muscle strength and definition. Doing three sets of 15 repetitions every day will help define your cheekbones. This exercise doesn't just target your cheeks but also works the rest of your face, leading to a more chiseled look with regular practice.
Jawline clench for cheek toning
Just clench your teeth while keeping your mouth closed, and then try to smile. This action pulls the lower part of your face upwards towards the ears, indirectly working not only the jawline but also the cheek muscles. This indirect work aids in toning them. Hold this position for 10 seconds before releasing. Do this 20 times a day to see results.
