Why Face Yoga?

Face yoga is a series of exercises that target the muscles of the face, neck, and jawline. These movements involve gentle stretching, massage, and muscle engagement to improve blood circulation, stimulate collagen production, and visible firmness of the skin. While your face has over 40 muscles, we rarely use most of them consciously. With regular facial workouts, you can train these muscles just like you would with a body workout and help them stay firm, lifted, and strong.
