http://www.healthynewage.com/facelift.html "As you age, repetitive patterns cause some muscles to become over-exercised or pull on the face. This can cause jowls, turkey neck, baggy eyes and also premature wrinkles. So it is vital to stimulate the right facial muscles. Chinese regenerating face exercises can help the muscles remember your vital facial signature." I wonder what repetitive movements can give you jowls because I'm starting to get them and wishing i could pinpoint what i need to do. Anyway i am very interested on your thoughts on this | ||

Bill: I understand the lure this kind of language - "As you incorporate this technique into your daily skin care procedure the Chi energy will harmonize in your face protecting your skin from the effects of aging." Many people are attracted to anything from the East especially if it has been "practiced in China regularly for thousands of years." And "inviting the Chi into the face" sounds as peaceful as a nature painting. It's poetry, but will all this laying on of "energized hands" really help your face? I doubt it although I'd like to believe it would. It's all so peaceful. I don't think repetitive movements are the cause of jowls. Lack of good facial posture, lack of effective exercise for the front of the neck, and gaining weight - all these things contribute to jowls. A clean jawline is what keeps a face looking young and vibrant. |
