How well do you know your facial muscles? With over 50 muscles in your face and neck, understanding your facial structure is key to addressing the areas where sagging often begins. By identifying these critical points, you can proactively target them with exercises that help lift, tone, and rejuvenate your appearance. Let’s focus on two key areas: the Temporalis and Frontalis muscles.
Temporalis Muscles
The temporalis muscles are located on the sides of your face, and sagging here can lead to more pronounced nasolabial folds (the lines around your mouth) and drooping mouth corners. Identifying this as a weak point is simple:
- Place the heels of your hands on your temples.
- Press inwards, upwards, and slightly back.
- If this smooths out your nasolabial folds and lifts your cheeks, your temples may be the area needing attention.
An effective exercise to strengthen the temporalis muscles is the Cat Eye. This movement targets the temples, helping to lift and tone this critical area.
Frontalis Muscle
If adjusting your temples doesn’t impact the center of your face, the frontalis muscle on your forehead might be the culprit. Weakness here can cause hollows under the eyes, sagging eye corners, bags, and even jowls. To counteract this, focus on exercises that lift the central facial region.
The Forehead Lift is an excellent exercise for targeting the frontalis muscle, helping to restore firmness and reduce sagging in the mid-face area.
