How to remove jowls on your face?
Every woman wants to feel young and beautiful. But age-related changes spoil the appearance. Sagging in the lower part of the face (jowls) sooner or later appears in every woman. And this is natural. The laws of gravity pull our skin to the ground, as a result, the turgor and elasticity of tissues decrease every year, the skin begins to fade, and the oval of the face changes.

In addition, sagging cheeks are affected by excess weight, genetic predisposition, stress and fatigue, and excess ultraviolet rays.

Jowls (correctly - jowls) - this word refers to saggy, flabby cheeks that deform the line of the lower jaw and chin. Jaws on the cheeks age the face by 5-10 years, making it sad and tired. They cannot be hidden with makeup.

But sagging skin is a natural process of aging. And it is almost impossible to avoid it. But it’s within our power to fix it! But first, let's look at the reasons for the appearance of jowls.

Why do jowls appear?

Our face consists of 57 muscles and fat, which is concentrated mainly in the cheek area. This cheek fat, in honor of the French anatomist Marie François Bichat, has its own name - Bichat's fat pads, and reaches a very impressive size. They are located between the skin and the mucous membrane of the cheek in the so-called “capsules,” which are located in three facial zones: above the lower jaw, in the infraorbital region and next to the parotid salivary glands.

With age, any person experiences drooping of facial tissues (gravitational ptosis). The lower jaw to the left and right of the chin is devoid of muscle support (this can be easily seen in the figure), and nothing prevents sagging in this area. As a result, characteristic sagging is formed along the jawline - “bulldog cheeks”, which make the facial contour wavy. In thin people, shaving is usually due to excess skin and only skin. In all other cases, sagging is enhanced by subcutaneous fat or Bisha lumps

It is believed that Bisha's structures contribute not only to the “blurring” of the contour of the lower jaw, but also cause nasolabial folds and lay the zygomatic bags (malar fat).

Most often, sagging skin in the lower jaw area is the visible result of a number of invisible changes that have occurred to our face over the years:

  1. Low collagen and elastin content . Collagen inside our skin is like the reinforcing mesh in buildings made of monolithic concrete. Only with age does the old collagen “break down”, and the new one is not synthesized actively enough. This causes the skin to lose support and elasticity.
  2. Weakening of the facial muscles , which cannot hold the skin and subcutaneous fat high in the same place. Thus, as a result of weakening of the cervical platysma muscle, a “goiter” and a double chin are formed in the neck area. The same mechanism underlies sagging cheeks.
  3. Due to a lack of certain elements and hormonal changes , the bones become thinner and the face becomes flattened. Cheekbones lose their “sculpted” volume. Deprived of this important support, all facial structures, like on a sled, literally “slide” down.
  4. An age-related decrease in the amount of melanin pigment in the skin makes it vulnerable to sunlight and accelerates aging.

Earth's gravity forces Bish's lumps, and with it all the soft tissues of the face, to fall down. In women (and sometimes men), thick “sausages” appear near the nose, thick jowls and other “fleshy” sags appear on the lower parts of the cheekbones.

A face with jowls is not just a problem of age. There are other reasons too. Individual facial features, stress, constant exposure to wind and cold, smoking, alcohol, coffee, poor nutrition, certain medications, endocrine diseases, rapid weight loss, poorly developed chin, etc. all contribute.

The risk of developing early jowls is especially high in heavy individuals with a large amount of cheek fat. These are overweight people and those who, at normal weight, inherited chubby cheeks.

The same factors apply to men. But due to gender characteristics, they have less facial fat. Their skin is not subject to hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy and menopause; it remains dense for a long time. Therefore, men's jowls appear 10-15 years later.

Hollywood beauty standards have long been shaping the fashion on faces and in everyday life: beautiful, high cheekbones and the effect of sunken cheeks even after 50.

The procedure for removing Bisha's lumps performed at a young age is a reliable prevention of the formation of jowls after forty. By the way, it is used not only to get rid of excess cheek fat. This technique has a dazzling bonus for correcting the shape of the face: you can noticeably highlight the cheekbones and create the effect of sunken cheeks a la Angelina Jolie, lighten the lower part of the face, visually making it narrower and more prominent .

During the procedure, Bisha's fatty lumps are not completely removed. This approach allows you to get “thoroughbred” and young, blooming cheekbones, avoiding the effect of a haggard face.

Exercises for jowls

If you are not lazy and devote only 15-20 minutes a day to yourself, then gymnastics will return a blooming, fit look to young people. People with pronounced age-related changes, unfortunately, will not be able to remove jowls with exercises, but the complex proposed below will help slow down further sagging of the skin:

  • Puff out your cheeks as much as possible. Hold this state for a few seconds. And exhale.
  • Puff out your cheeks strongly and move the air in your mouth to the right and left.
  • Puff out your cheeks and move the air in a circle.
  • After taking a deep breath, you need to exhale the air by moving your lips left and right. The lips should be tightly compressed.
  • Open your mouth as wide as possible and pronounce vowels while smiling.
  • Pursing your lips like a tube, pronounce the vowels “u” and “yu”, as if pushing out the air in short bursts.
  • With your lips pursed, “blow out” an imaginary candle 50–55 times daily.
  • Puff out your cheeks, then close your mouth tightly with your palm and exhale into your palm. Do this exercise as slowly as possible.
  • Use your lower lip to overlap your upper lip, then swap them. Do at least 20 times.
  • Try to reach your nose with your lower lip.
  • Clench your teeth as hard as possible. Record this state for 10–20
  • Press your index fingers firmly against your cheeks and try to smile against resistance. This is a great exercise to strengthen your facial muscles!
  • Inflate balloons as often as possible. This exercise will be useful not only for people with sagging cheeks, but also for people with weak lungs.

Remember that the appearance of jowls is caused by the weakening of several muscles at once, and if you lift only one of them (as advised in the video), the effect may be hardly noticeable. The upper facial muscles are responsible for the tightened oval of the face: the zygomatic minor and major, the levator anguli oris muscle, the buccal muscle and the laughter muscle. In addition, the hypertonicity of the muscle that lowers the angle of the mouth (it belongs to the lower facial muscles) also plays a role.

To get rid of facial deformation or at least smooth it out, you need to put in order the junction of the lower and upper jaws (to reduce the jowls at the junction of them with the cheeks), and also straighten the line of the lower jaw. The author of the “Physiological System of Rejuvenation” method, L. Tel, advises doing several exercises, and in combination. Only then can good results be achieved.

Well, let's get down to correcting the oval of the face, tightening and strengthening the muscles.

Exercise 1 It can be done immediately after waking up.
Remember the American horror movie “Scream” and the scary mask that caused panic among the film’s characters? So, now we need to give the face the same expression as on that very mask.

Technique for performing the exercise: you need to open your mouth and lower your lower jaw as much as possible. In this case, the lips should be tense and stretched out like a tube, as when pronouncing the sound O. Most often at this moment, people feel pain at the junction of the jaws.

The author advises: place your palms at the junction of the jaws and, not paying attention to the pain, try to lower the muscle, smoothing it along its entire length. To do this, press downwards with palms, starting from the side at the outer corner of the eye (with the eyes wide open), move down vertically and along an oblique line (see picture). Repeat several times.

Let me express my opinion - all manipulations should be enjoyable or at least not cause severe pain, therefore, in my opinion, the exercise should be done carefully, without causing yourself suffering.

Exercise 2 Necessary to restore the center of the roundness of the cheeks. And this should happen through training. small and large and zygomatic muscles
. As a result, nasolabial folds should decrease.

To perform the exercise, you need to fix the skin around your mouth along the nasolabial line, press it with your fingers to your teeth, while trying to smile. L.Z. Tel advises performing the exercise 15-20 times.

Note! The first and second exercises should only be done in combination! Otherwise, by performing only the first exercise, you will “pull” the center of the roundness of your cheeks down.

Exercise 3 Aimed at correcting the second part of the “jowls” in the place where they connect to the chin). To get results, you need to restore muscle that depresses the anguli oris (triangular muscle

).

Technique for performing the exercise: fix the corners of your mouth with two fingers and try to lower them (as when expressing disgust and disgust) 15-20 times, at a slow pace until you feel tired. This will help relieve hypertonicity of these muscles

Exercise 4 (I think this is a more complete explanation of the Shaving technique :o)

But the biggest challenge, according to Thel, is yet to come. For that. To align the place where the skin of the triangular muscle meets the skin of the chin, you will have to work hard. In this place, several muscles are attached to the jaw arch at once - the masticatory, triangular and lowering lower lip. So, all of them are gradually overgrown with fat and cartilage deposits, and waste accumulates here. (In fact, there are a lot of deposits here))

It is more effective to do this exercise on steamed skin, lubricated with oil (in a bath or bath). Holding and fixing the angle of the jaw with one hand, move the other along the jaw line from the beginning of the “jowls” to the center of the chin. Don’t be surprised if the jaw arch greets you unwelcomingly - with the crackling sound of “slag” and lumps of fatty deposits that interfere with free passage.

Try to stretch, overcome all these barriers, trying to ensure that the skin triangular muscle

and the skin
of the mental muscle
were one whole, smoothly transitioning into each other

The same should be done with the lower part of the masticatory muscle. Holding the skin of the triangular muscle, use your thumb and index finger to move along the jaw line to the corner of the jaw, as if restoring it.

Exercise 5

Promotes elevation of the cheek fat pad (Bishat's lump).

Technique: lubricate your face with oil and rub your knuckles from bottom to top from the “jowl” area, gradually moving towards the eyes. Then you need to carefully iron and stretch the tightened muscles. At first, the procedure causes unpleasant and sometimes even painful sensations.

If you do the exercise constantly, the pain will disappear.

Cleansing mask with soap and soda

A tar mask requires special attention to its preparation and application. The mask is best suited for caring for problem skin. People with dry skin types should be more careful when using the mask.

Before using tar, it is important to check the skin's reaction to allergies. To do this, the composition must be applied to the wrist and left for a quarter of an hour.

It is best to apply the mask to a steamed face. Enlarged pores will help the composition penetrate deeply, which will ensure the most beneficial effect. Leave these masks on your face for no more than ten minutes.

Recipe for a mask with soap and soda:

  • Prepare tar shavings from soap;
  • Beat until foamy;
  • Add salt and a pinch of soda.

Before applying the mask, the skin needs to be provided with a steam effect. Then the mask will cleanse the skin by penetrating deep into the pores. At the same time, it will help tighten the pores, which will prevent skin contamination. The mask should be applied no more than once or twice a month.

Massage the ears and ear muscles surrounding the external auditory canals

are also very important. Although the size of this zone on our head is very small, they seem to hold the tendon helmet and at the same time contribute to its tension and face lift.

Remember, only constant work on yourself brings the desired success. One-time actions give only short-term results. yspeh4life.ru

A few more recommendations:

There is no need to pump up the jowl area. It is necessary to perform exercises to stretch and relax the masticatory muscle, which is very often responsible for their formation. Raise the tone of the middle and upper cheeks (these are pumping exercises). And the area of ​​the jowls (fat sacs) itself needs to be massaged. Massage – pinch (stimulating blood circulation) or cupping, kneading and smoothing.

It is very important to monitor the position of the jaws . They should be relaxed and slightly open. If in the normal state they are rigidly linked to each other, then it will be almost impossible to remove the jowls.

Correct application

Before using the product, it is necessary to check the body’s reaction to it, since the cleansing mask should not cause additional problems (for example, allergic rashes). Apply a small amount of soap or liquid tar to the wrist (or elbow) for 15 minutes, then rinse with water. If after a few hours no skin changes occur, then the mask can be safely (but carefully) used. To maximize the opening of the pores, the face must be steamed well before each procedure. In this case, the cosmetic product will penetrate deeper and be more effective.

Maximum effect with minimum effort!

What to do if exercises and massages do not give the desired effect? Modern beauty salons and medical centers offer a number of procedures to improve facial contours. The good thing about the salon is that specialists will conduct a comprehensive examination of the body and select an individual program for getting rid of jowls for each specific patient. Salon procedures have one undeniable advantage over home methods: the effect is noticeable after the first time, although often the matter is not limited to one procedure. You can turn to professionals at any age: the choice of methods is wide, the effectiveness is at the proper level, the terms are the shortest.

So, the most famous remedy is the lifting technique.

  • Lymphatic drainage massage

A specialist who performs manual lymphatic drainage massage of the face makes all movements strictly in the direction of the lymphatic flow. The manipulations are soft, wave-like, very pleasant, giving relaxation and relaxation. There is no pain associated with this massage. As a result of the massage, lymph flow accelerates, decay products and toxins are removed from cells, and the amount of nutrients and oxygen available to the skin increases. The most important thing is that excess fat, intercellular fluid, and swelling are eliminated. The facial contour is tightened, jowls disappear after several sessions.

  • Thermolifting / RF lifting

This procedure involves applying heat to the skin. Thermolifting accelerates the processes of microcirculation of blood and lymph, puts metabolism in order. Under the action of targeted heat rays, old, no longer needed cells die and are removed faster. This leads to a general renewal of tissue, a new portion of collagen and elastin produced in the cells. The skin framework is strengthened, cellular partitions are restored, fat deposits are subject to breakdown. As a result, not a trace remains of the jowls after several thermolifting procedures.

  • Injection cosmetology / mesotherapy

There are various drugs that are injected under the skin of the face in a problem area (lower part of the face, area where jowls form). Injection lipolysis selectively, gradually, without shocks or revolutions, reduces the volume of fat deposits without damaging the muscles and skin. Many salons offer similar mesotherapy, but given the general dislike of injections, it is not particularly popular among those who want to get rid of jowls.

  • Bio-reinforcement / vector facelift

Another injection procedure, but it involves the administration of a biostimulator based on hyaluronic acid. It penetrates into the deep layers of the skin and forms a kind of web of active biothreads. Their goal is to strengthen the skin framework, rid the face of jowls, wrinkles, any manifestation of ptosis (sagging skin), and tighten the facial contour. Within a month there will be no trace left of the biothreads, as they will dissolve, but the lifting effect that they produce at the cellular level during this time will be effective for quite a long time (this will depend on the type of threads and the individual characteristics of the body).

  • Contour plastic surgery of jowls

Facial reinforcement with Radiesse gel or RegenLAb plasma filler. The drugs are injected deeply into the periosteum area under the cheekbones. Thanks to this technique, the face restores youthful volume, acquires clear, graceful contours and a heart shape. In the injection area, gels as a bonus start the process of skin restoration and help to significantly refresh it, eliminate wrinkles and smooth out folds.


Remember! There is no point in injecting gel or lipofilling directly into the lower jaw. This will solve the problem (and only briefly) for those whose sagging is caused by excess skin and is not accompanied by excess fat.

“Reinforcing shavings alone is fundamentally wrong. The flutters are just a consequence. The reason is the prolapse of soft tissues. Therefore, first of all, you need to strengthen your face in the area of ​​the cheeks, cheekbones and temples. Strengthening them will pull the fringes up and prevent them from sagging quickly. To enhance the effect of the procedure, it is usually recommended to eliminate excess subcutaneous fat, which over time will move down again and lead to the formation of new jowls.”

If jowls appear on a “heavy” face against the background of large excess skin, the methods listed above will give a weakly expressed aesthetic effect. In this case, the face can only be sculpted using surgical lifting. During the operation, the tissues are moved to their previous, youthful position and securely fixed. Excess skin is removed.

Anyone who turns to professionals with the problem of jowls should keep in mind two significant disadvantages of such rejuvenation technologies:

  • high prices: thermolifting will empty your wallet by 15,000 rubles, injection (depending on the drug) will cost starting from 30,000 rubles, bioreinforcement - at least 10,000 rubles;
  • side effects, complications and consequences sometimes negate all the joy of eliminating jowls: hematomas, allergic reactions, tissue necrosis, bruises and much more may remain.

As for the first drawback, the prices are indicated on average for one procedure, and a whole series of them will be required. But for the sake of beauty, you will make any sacrifice if you have the financial opportunity. As for the second drawback of salon procedures, you simply need to be more responsible when choosing a clinic (salon). It is advisable to consult a cosmetologist who has performed this procedure more than once and has experience in this matter. Study the reviews about this establishment and specifically about the specialist you see. It’s even better if the salon and doctor are recommended by friends.

Those who do not have the opportunity to eliminate jowls in the salon can do this at home. The problem of how to remove jowls at home, as already mentioned, can be solved with the help of special gymnastics, self-massage and cosmetic masks. The main thing is the desire to achieve the goal and tidy up the contour of your face, removing the hanging folds of your cheeks. Yes, it will take much more time than if you go to a beauty salon: you will have to work on yourself for not just one week, but entire months. However, you don’t have to be afraid of complications and side effects, and money will be saved, since these procedures will not require financial costs.

To get rid of sagging skin on the face, careful and regular care is necessary. After all, only a complex effect will contribute to a beautiful and toned oval. And daily gymnastics and massage can transform your appearance. Based on materials from www.platinental.ru, beautyface.net
