What is a gummy smile?

A gummy smile is a term used by dentists and plastic surgeons to define a cosmetic defect.
A person will be able to detect it on their own if they smile in front of a mirror - the upper gums will be exposed by more than 2 mm. The lower edge of the teeth can be covered by the lower lip, resulting in a kind of smile without teeth. In this situation, the entire upper gum is visible, and the wide smile is often called a “horse smile” due to some resemblance to this animal. Normally, the upper teeth, when a person wants to smile, should be exposed so that the gums and lower teeth are not visible, but exposing the edges of the lower teeth by 1-2 mm is acceptable.

In women, the anomaly is approximately 1.2 times more common; every 25th girl cannot smile or laugh out loud because of this feature, visible to everyone.

Men don't focus on this so much

How to visually and visually enlarge lips at home with makeup

Exfoliate your lips before applying makeup.

Basic facial scrubs can be used on both the lips and the rest of the face. They are excellent at unclogging pores and exfoliating dry, dead skin from the surface. Spend a few minutes massaging the scrub into your lips.

You can make a natural sugar scrub at home with equal parts sugar and olive oil, or you can buy these products at most beauty supply stores. You can also gently brush your lips with a dry toothbrush.

Moisturize your lips to make them look full.

Keeping your lips moisturized will keep them from drying out and flaking under your lipstick. You can use a variety of moisturizers and lip balms to prevent the skin on your lips from becoming too dry. Try to apply moisturizer every day, especially on dry and windy days.

• When applying makeup, start by applying a layer of moisturizer to the outside of your lips and your face. Let it absorb before applying makeup. You can use lip balm or moisturizing facial serum on your lips.
• Hydrate is also found inside and outside. This means drinking at least 8 cups of water a day. It is not only good for your body but also keeps your skin and lips hydrated.

Choose the right shade of lipstick.

When choosing your lip color, try to stick to lighter shades. We all know when dressing that dark colors are slimming and light colors are not. The same goes for lipsticks, so any dark colors will firstly make your lips look smaller and secondly will draw more attention to that fact because of the way they grab attention. Outline them with lip liner.

Outline them with lip liner.

Line right along the outer edge of your lip with a liner and then line just a little on your actual lip. This will prevent the lipstick from smearing all over your face, which can sometimes happen, especially with darker colors.

Be careful. Remember Kylie Jenner. Don't give yourself a dramatic Cupid bow; this will not only draw attention to the fact that your lips are painted on, but will also make them appear smaller. Instead, follow the natural shape of your lips. Apply lipstick near the middle of your lips

Apply lipstick near the middle of your lips

Take the lipstick color of your choice and place it on your lips, using the brush to blend it into your lip liner and also remove any harsh lines. Take a lighter lipstick and pat it onto the inside of your lips where the light naturally hits. Take a brush and mix it with the base color to make it look natural.

If you want, try using a little white eyeshadow and try applying a small amount just above the middle of your upper lip in a “cupid's bow.” If you are using white eyeshadow, blend it well so it doesn't look like a white ball, but just a slightly lighter, slightly shimmery spot.

Apply some lip gloss.

Use clear gloss on top to help reflect light to give the illusion of a fuller lip. If you don't like the look of gloss, make sure the lighter lip shade you use has a gloss and is not matte.

Apply it on both your upper and lower lip. It will spread out when you smear your lips together, but will be concentrated in the middle, making your lips look fuller.

Highlight your lips

Take highlighter in your preferred form, brush or liquid, and touch the top of your natural Cupid's bow to make your lips appear fuller. Using a matte bronzer, apply it to the curves under your lips and above your chin. This will give the impression that your lips are raised up.

Folk remedies

Our grandmothers enlarged their lips without surgery or injections, and in a matter of minutes. The desired sexuality and swelling is achieved with the help of the most common spices and herbs. Some methods, however, are quite extreme, but the effect is achieved quickly enough, although not very long-lasting. When choosing grandma's methods, you need to remember that:

• if you are allergic to any of the products, it is better to avoid this method;
• after a few hours (about 5-6) the lips will regain their previous shape.

If there are no medical contraindications and the short-lived effect does not bother you, you can start looking for your own beauty recipe.

Hot pepper

1. Grind one pod of red hot pepper along with the seeds, add hot water to make a paste, wet a napkin and apply it to your mouth for a few minutes.
2. Mix crushed pepper with Vaseline and apply the mixture to your lips until a burning sensation appears. Lubricate with balm.

Ginger

Chew a piece of ginger and apply the paste to your lips, lightly massaging them. Remove the mask with a napkin and cover your lips with gloss or hygienic lipstick.

Cinnamon

Mix candied honey, cinnamon and olive oil until smooth, apply to a toothbrush and massage your lips for about 5 minutes. Honey will remove dead epithelium, olive oil will lubricate, and cinnamon will cause a rush of blood.

Peppermint

Crush peppermint leaves. Soak a cotton pad with the resulting juice and apply it to your lips. Rinse with warm water and lubricate lips with Vaseline.

Lemon

Finely grate the peel and pass it over your lips. As soon as they begin to go numb, the procedure can be stopped. Lemon will not only plump your lips, but also whiten your teeth and freshen your breath.

After any procedure, apply the right makeup, and attention to your lips will be ensured. According to statistics from fashion glossy publications, men, looking at a woman’s face, first of all pay attention to the lips

How to properly stretch your lips after lip augmentation?

After lip augmentation with filler, a massage is necessary for its better, even distribution. When doing a massage, be sure to do all the exercises on both the upper and lower lips. Do not press too hard on your lips or pinch them. It is necessary to gently stroke in a circular motion along the contour.

After lip augmentation with filler, you need to knead your lips using your fingertips. You can use a toothbrush. Instead of fingertips, a regular spoon can be used. When using a spoon, it is better to apply balm or special oil to your lips. Cosmetic oils will not only moisturize the skin when massaging the lips after lip augmentation with filler, but will also supply it with nutrients.

After the swelling has completely gone, you can do a hot-cold contrast massage. A spoon works well for this technique:

• heat the spoon;
• apply it to the lips;
• After this, apply a chilled spoon or, for example, an ice cube.

This massage is performed very carefully. You can also use honey while kneading your lips after they have been enlarged. This substance will relieve swelling. This product can only be used if you are not allergic to bee products.

It is not recommended to massage with the same brush that is used directly for brushing your teeth. It’s better to get a new one, especially for massage. To massage using a toothbrush, you need to choose the softest bristles or use the back side. The massage should be done without pressure, gently moving along the contour of the lips in a circular motion. The bristles of the toothbrush must be soft. Hard ones can damage the already injured skin of the lips.

Massage should be carried out at least once a day, and preferably 2 times - in the morning and in the evening.

It is necessary to knead your lips after augmentation in different directions, namely:

• soft movements in a circle;
• soft movements from the center to the corners;
• soft movements from the corners to the center;
• gently massage the corners of the mouth;
• in circular motions the skin above the upper lip, under the lower lip.

The whole process takes approximately 5 minutes. Lip massage after lip augmentation with filler will slightly reduce the rate of resorption of the hyaluronic acid. It will also be useful to do a little gymnastics immediately after the procedure:

1. Purse your lips tightly and try to make rotational movements left and right.
2. Stretch your lips slightly and try to pronounce the vowel sounds “-o, -i, -a, - u.”
3. Take a shallow breath, gently stretch your lips into a tube and slowly release the air.
4. They close their lips and gently rub them together. This is very similar to the movement of the lips after applying decorative cosmetics.
5. Gently squeeze your lips and slowly pull them into a tube. Then return to the starting position.
6. Try to carefully imitate a whistle.
7. Bite your tongue slightly with your lips and try to tense the muscles of your jaw and mouth.
8. All movements are repeated about 5 times.

It is necessary to stretch your lips after augmentation with filler. This will allow the gel not to stagnate in one place, but to be evenly distributed over the entire surface of the lips.

You can apply a little cosmetic oil or balm to your lips. This will make the massage much easier, as it will remove friction and reduce pain. You can also use butter or an ice cube.

It is also recommended to use various special scrubs or herbal decoctions, such as chamomile or calendula. You can buy a scrub in a store or make it yourself. Buy herbs at the pharmacy. At home, you can use baking soda and honey or honey and sugar as a scrub.

Who is face building for lips intended for?

Slavs by nature rarely have large lips. More common is a small mouth framed by thin skin. “Delicate” lips do not attract attention. The face becomes less expressive. Without additional care, thin lip skin gradually dries out and becomes even less attractive.

The beauty of natural full lips also does not last forever. A juicy mouth loses its beautiful outline with age. The firmness and elasticity of tissues are lost, and the shape is deformed. Excessive expressiveness can become a problem.

Age-related changes affect all the details of the face: the oval “floats”, the cheeks and eyelids sag. Gradually, the skin of the lips also becomes sagging, and excess folds and sagging appear. The corners of the mouth turn downward, providing external emotional gloominess. Wrinkles form around, aggravating the created picture.

All of the above problems can be solved at home by performing special gymnastics, without leading to more serious interventions. Face building will help to slightly “pump up” the volume, tighten sagging, prevent the formation of an unaesthetic “accordion” of folds, and reduce the number and depth of wrinkles.

How to visually enlarge lips

Bright and plump lips always attract attention. The image becomes more feminine, carefree and sexy

Owners of thin lips try to correct the defect with the help of makeup and add zest to their image.

There is no need to rush and go to a beauty salon for beauty injections. Using the advice of experienced makeup artists, you can create a push-up effect using lipstick, gloss and lip pencils.

With age, due to facial wrinkles, the shape of the lips becomes less clear. Wrinkles appear on the delicate skin and elasticity is lost. Not every woman is lucky enough to be born with an ideal shape. Beauty standards state that the upper lip should be proportional to the size of the lower lip. Achieving this symmetry is difficult with exercises and creams. Only decorative cosmetics will show quick results.

First of all, you should pay attention to the color, texture and method of using lipstick. Tips from makeup artists for visual enhancement:

1. Light and natural shades.
   These include beige, pink, peach and coral colors. They will add sexuality and piquancy to the image. It is better to avoid orange, red and crimson shades.
2. Glitter and shining lipstick.
   The combination of lipstick and lip gloss will increase volume; it is better to use cream and satin shades. Gloss should be applied over lipstick, as it is the best light reflector.
3. Two shades.
   One should be dark, the other light, the dark one will emphasize the boundaries, but you shouldn’t make them too clear. A light shade is applied to the central part, the darkener should be matte, and the brightener should have a glossy structure.
4. Varnish effect.
   Instead of regular lipstick, it is better to use liquid lipstick. Thanks to the convenient applicator, application is uniform and a glossy finish is created on the lips.
5. Plumper.
   These are glitters that come in a variety of colors and shapes, rich in beneficial substances such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, as well as natural ingredients - mint and pepper, which will give your lips color, volume and smoothness.
6. New form.
   To perform this procedure you will need skill. Thin lips should be painted over with foundation, and then with a pencil, draw a new, smoother contour just a few millimeters higher than the original one, then shade the line and apply lipstick.
7. Glare.
   To do this you will need a highlighter, they need to highlight the central part of the lips. Shimmering shadows are also suitable for this purpose.
8. Bow.
   This is the shape to be drawn on the lips. Its implementation consists of two steps. The upper lip is a swoosh with vertical lines from its base. The lower one is a horizontal line, equal in size to the check mark on the upper lip; branches are also made from it, creating a bow effect. After these manipulations, apply lipstick to add volume.

Special cosmetics

There are two types of lip enhancement products:

• Stimulate blood flow to tissues due to irritating action. Red pepper, mint, cinnamon, ginger, and essential oils cope with this task. They act immediately after application, the effect lasts 3-5 hours.
• The ingredients penetrate into the deep layers of the skin and attract water, making the tissue more elastic. Products with hyaluronic acid and collagen have this effect. Moisturizing and shine are provided by additional components: panthenol, vitamin E, sea buckthorn oil, plant extracts of aloe, lingonberry, etc. To see results, you need to use the products for at least a month.

Best cosmetics:

• Dior Lip Maximizer lip gloss contains hyaluronic acid fillers. Quickly enlarges lips, the effect lasts 2-3 hours.

• Lip Priority, Christian Breton – cream with hyaluronic acid.

• Fillerina Lip Volume Grade 3 lip enlargement gel – the product formula contains 6 types of hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate, which emphasizes the enlargement effect.

Adding volume to your lips with makeup

If you need to quickly enlarge your lips, you can use the secrets of experienced makeup artists. With the help of decorative cosmetics it is quite easy to give your lips visual volume

It is important to know and apply some details:

Makeup application sequence

• thoroughly cleanse the skin of the lips;
• lubricate them with moisturizer and wait 1-2 minutes for complete absorption;
• Use a special brush to cover your lips with foundation;
• use a pencil to outline the contour of the lips; if they are particularly thin, the “border” of the lips can be increased by moving a few millimeters away from the red border;
• Starting from the center of the lips, apply lipstick with a brush;
• Lightly powder the surface painted with lipstick and apply another thin layer of lipstick;
• The final touch is to lubricate your lips with gloss;

Selection of cosmetics

• the pencil should be 1 tone darker than the lipstick;
• It is better to use light berry tones of lipstick, because the dark colors of this product visually reduce them;
• take glitter with a metallic or pearlescent sheen

Important nuances

• paint the center of the lips with lighter lipstick than the outer edges, this will make them larger;
• lipstick with a dense matte texture lasts longer on the lips;
• If only glitter is used for makeup, then the pencil should be flesh-colored.

Visual increase

Skillful makeup will make your lips seductively plump. Your actions:

• Outline the natural contour of your lips with a white or nude pencil.
• Take a pencil that matches your lipstick color. Draw a line on top repeating the previously drawn outline. You can go beyond natural boundaries quite a bit.
• Using the same pencil, draw vertical lines in the center of the lips and arcs on the right and left sides. This will visually increase the volume.
• Apply lipstick from the center to the corners.
• If desired, cover your lips with a clear, shimmer-free gloss.

Dark shades visually enlarge the mouth, while matte tones make it smaller. Pearlescent pink lipsticks are not suitable for everyone: for some they help make lips plump, while for others the opposite situation occurs.

How to lift the corners of your lips up with exercises

Also, against drooping corners of the mouth, any exercises with resistance are needed, for example:

• Using your palms, press on the skin around the mouth. We try to lift the corners of our lips upward, depicting a smile.
• We fix our index fingers along the nasolabial folds and press down. We pull the corners up.
• We pull the lips in and press them to the teeth. We try to stress them out as much as possible.
• It is necessary to pronounce the letter “o” by straining your mouth very hard. Tension is replaced by complete relaxation.
• Place your index fingers on the corners of your lips and move inward. That is, the fingers are trying to bring the corners to the center. At the same time resistance is performed with the lips.
• First you need to open your mouth, drawing an oval shape. After this, the upper lip is pressed against the lower teeth. You should try to portray a smile with the corners. It is recommended to repeat until you feel a burning sensation.
• Fold the sponges into a tube. Inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth. The lips must be pressed together as tightly as possible.
• To begin with, the mouth is drawn out into a tube. You need to hold your chin with your palm so that it does not move. Mouth movements are performed that resemble those of a fish. Upper lip up, lower lip down, chin in place. The exercise is performed for 2-3 minutes.
• The most difficult exercise on this list. It's called "eight". You need to draw a figure eight with your mouth extended into a tube in the air.
• Do not forget that the deformation of the shape of the mouth is caused by spasmed muscles in this area, so the main and best exercise for raising the corners of the mouth should be an exercise to relax the muscle that lowers the corners of the mouth from the Revitonics course:

Technique:

• Place your index fingers on the corners of your mouth, place your thumbs on the jaw arch where the triangular muscles attach to it (see picture).
• Pull your fingers slightly towards each other. Take your time, wait until the skin is moisturized and moves freely. When the skin becomes moisturized, it will mean that the muscles have relaxed.
• Next, work on each corner of your mouth in turn.

For techniques from the face-building course for lips, watch the video from a famous trainer:

With these simple lip exercises you can achieve good results. The main thing is to perform the complex every day (or at least 4-5 times) for 15-20 minutes and then the effect will not be long in coming.

Exercises for lip muscles

With these simple exercises you will strengthen your lip muscles and prevent them from aging. Classes are recommended for ladies who smoke, as during the process of smoking vertical wrinkles form around the mouth.

Strengthening muscles:

• Alphabet. You need to pronounce vowels. To do this, sit in front of a mirror and watch your mouth. Pronounce the sounds and try to make it clear from your lips which letter you are saying. That is, you need to stretch your lips as much as possible when pronouncing “u”, and widen your mouth when pronouncing “a”
• Pencil. This is a great subject to practice with the mouth. To do this, close your lips and put a pencil between them. Now try to move the stationery back and forth and from right to left without using your hands.
• Vibration. An excellent activity for strengthening muscles. Close the lips with a tube and pull forward strongly. You should feel the tension. Move your index finger from top to bottom, making a vowel sound. You should eventually hear a vibrating sound

Lip augmentation techniques

You can adjust your lip size in different ways. Plastic surgery methods offer the placement of implants from natural and artificial materials. The latter includes silicone. It is also the most popular because it can not only make lips look lush, but also maintain their natural shape. In plastic surgery, a special type of material is used - soft silicone. Its introduction into the body is safe and an allergic reaction rarely occurs to such implants.

To solve the problem, they resort to another surgical method - thread lifting. The use of synthetic threads allows you to even out the contour of the lips and make it clearer.

With the help of lipofilling, the volume will become larger, and the result will look as natural as possible. The technique of the procedure is simple: fat is injected into the lip area. Lipofilling is completely safe for health. During the procedure, not synthetic material is introduced into the tissue, but biological material - your own fat, taken from different parts of the body.

The following options are available in cosmetology:

• fillers. Plastic gel for subcutaneous administration, which contains various acids;
• Botox. The procedure involves the injection of botulinum toxin intramuscularly. Under its action, facial folds are smoothed out and no longer appear;
• injection of hyaluronic acid. This substance is evenly distributed under the skin and does not cause the formation of scars, acne and other defects. The method is often used because it is safe, non-traumatic and gives excellent results.

Japanese lip exercises

There are several Japanese mouth enlargement techniques. The silicone trainer “Japanese lips” is now on sale. It is inserted into the mouth and it is necessary to pronounce all the sounds of the alphabet, trying to form the lips as usual when speaking. Silicone creates resistance, and it is not at all easy to perform the exercises.

Japanese exercises, instructions:

• Whistling your favorite tune with your lips curled up
• Make a tube of your lips and try to touch them to your chin or nose
• Open your mouth a little and stick out your tongue. Try to reach them as far as possible

Indications for use

Many women want to make their lips bigger and brighter. After all, a significant volume of this part of the face has long become one of the requirements for attractiveness. Some specialists are ready to meet the patient halfway, even seeing that she does not need the procedure. But a good cosmetologist will not allow a woman to disfigure herself on a whim and out of ignorance of the situation and thus spoil his reputation. There are indications for the procedure:

Too little lip volume. Their excessive subtlety gives the face a stern, angry expression and makes it look older. A specialist and an adequate patient will easily evaluate this criterion.

Fuzzy outlines. For some, the boundaries of their lips are naturally blurred, which also does not add to their beauty. This problem occurs more often with age.

Wrong shape. Sometimes lips are asymmetrical by nature or due to external influences. Or the shape is such that they look like they were taken from someone else’s face, which does not suit the patient.

Upper lip scar correction

Inconsistency of proportions. If the upper and lower lips are too different in size, it looks unnatural.

The appearance of wrinkles. The skin on the lips is thin, and it is even more difficult to keep it fresh than on the face and neck. The solution is to fill the folds with fillers, thereby returning volume, smoothness and shape.

Drooping of the corners of the lips. Withering can lead to the fact that the face, due to their changed location, becomes unnaturally dull and too aged.

It is not for nothing that specialists have compiled a clear list of indications for the procedure. After all, unsuccessfully inflated lips in some cases become so because the woman had no objective reasons for manipulation.

Advantages and disadvantages of different methods of professional enlargement

Modern cosmetology focuses on the desires of its clients. Professionals use the latest, innovative methods for lip volume correction.

However, each organism is individual. To avoid problems, you need to know what each of the proposed lip augmentation methods is.

The most current technologies that lift the upper lip:

• use of gels,
• lipofilling procedures,
• cheiloplasty,
• electroporation.

Gel correction

This method is one of the most popular in cosmetology. The effect of such a procedure is visible almost immediately. For everything to go well, you need to first select the gel that will be pumped.

The disadvantage is that the gel, being under the skin, can move, thereby distorting facial features, for example, making an upturned mouth. Sometimes a foreign substance can cause an infection. In addition, it is very difficult to remove the substance from under the skin, and after surgery, stitches may remain on the face.

The advantages of gels include the speed of the procedure and the absence of allergies to the material. You can adjust the size of your upper lip and make it voluminous. With the help of filler, the lip lifter will become plump and eye-catching. In addition, the injection can be repeated after six months when the effect disappears. Sometimes, if the upper lip is significantly smaller, its shape is corrected surgically.

You should always remember to use moderation: you should not overuse injections, otherwise your lips will look unnatural.

The procedure is not recommended for pregnant women, people with high sensitivity and blood problems. You should avoid if you have herpes or a viral infection.

Use of lifting

This method of augmentation is recommended for people with significant disabilities. During lifting, the client's adipose tissue is used as a filler. The disadvantages include the high cost of the procedure, the appearance of swelling on the face and the unpredictability of the result. The advantages include the duration of the effect, the absence of allergies and the process of rejection of foreign tissue.

Modern cheiloplasty

This method uses new augmentation technologies - contour and surgical. The contouring technique helps eliminate age-related changes in the lips, while the surgical technique eliminates imperfections using plastic surgery and the introduction of implants under the skin.

Contraindications include blood diseases, herpes, epilepsy, oncology and a number of other diseases. The advantages are the safety of implantation and the impossibility of rejection due to the fact that one’s own adipose tissue is used. The operations are performed under anesthesia, and if the technology is followed, they do not leave any traces.

Exercises for wrinkles

Surgical procedures, Botox and collagen injections will give you attractive and sexy lips. But remember that they can cause a number of side effects.

In order not to harm your own body, abandon radical methods of rejuvenation in favor of alternative ones. Regular exercises for wrinkles around the lips will help get rid of wrinkles and maintain freshness for a long time.

Before performing, we recommend watching the video on the Internet. This way you can avoid mistakes.

Smile

Stretch the corners of your mouth in different directions as wide as possible. Do not open your teeth while doing this. Hold this position for 5 seconds, then relax. Repeat 10 times.

Be careful to ensure that the zygomatic muscles are engaged. After all, the plumpness of the cheeks depends on their tone.

To enhance the effect, press your upper lip against your teeth with your fingers while performing the exercise. You can also lower your lower lip, exposing your teeth. This will not only get rid of wrinkles, but also remove the double chin.

Kisses

Shape your lips into a tube, as if you want to kiss someone. Pull them out as far as possible and wait in this position for 15 seconds. Then start moving from side to side. 10 times to the right and the same number to the left.

Remember that you cannot unclench your lips. Then relax, rest and repeat all over again.

The duration of the exercise depends on the degree of your fatigue - you need to stop when you feel tension in your muscles. You should end it with a wide smile without opening your mouth.

Pulls

Purse your lips tightly. Place your index fingers in the corners and begin to pull them up and down. You should pause for 15 seconds at each end point. You need to do the exercise at least thirty times. Then relax, rest a little and repeat everything again.

Such gymnastics will help not only smooth out wrinkles that appear near the lips. It can also make the contour of the lower part of the face more defined. It is good to use to combat a double chin or prevent its formation.

Cheek puffing

This is a very simple exercise. Take as much air into your mouth as possible and hold your breath for five seconds. Then exhale. This must be repeated 10 times. To make the effect more pronounced, roll the air from one cheek to the other.

After this, take a deep breath again through tightly clenched teeth. You need to exhale first through the left corner of your mouth, then through the right. One by one. Do at least 5 repetitions. Aim to perform this exercise at least 10 times in a row.

Exercise by Carol Maggio

Special exercises for lips allow you to maintain their volume after thirty years. One of them was developed by professional face-building instructor Carol Maggio. It is very popular among women.

Here's how to do it:

1. Purse your lips and lift their corners up.
2. Imagine tying them into a knot and pull as hard as possible.
3. Don't clench your teeth.
4. Place your index fingers on the corners and begin to lift them towards your cheekbones.
5. Do the same, but in the opposite direction.

This exercise should be repeated until a slight burning or tingling sensation appears. It indicates that you did everything correctly and the effect will not be long in coming.

Recommendations for quick results

The speed of obtaining results depends on the scale of the problem and individual requests. When it comes to increasing volume, it is foolish to expect a stunning effect. Lip exercises will help to slightly pump up your muscles.

Special devices (plamer, Japanese silicone simulator) will bring more tangible results. To achieve the Hollywood format, you will have to use “beauty injections” or the services of a plastic surgeon.

A regular approach to training will help you get the maximum possible effect from exercise. Daily exercise will bring noticeable results in 1-2 months. Each exercise is repeated 10–12 times at the initial stage of training. As you get used to it and strengthen the muscles, repeated repetitions are required. The duration of the series depends on the individual characteristics of the organism.

When the desired results are achieved, gymnastics is not abandoned. Reduce the intensity and frequency of exercise.

It is advisable to start doing gymnastics in front of a mirror. Exercises are done slowly, trying to “understand” the movement of each muscle. This is how you can work out your individual technique. As you get used to it, it is permissible to perform gymnastics without interruption from other activities.

A combined approach to training promotes maximum development of facial muscles, tightening the oval of the face, correcting relief lines, and minimizing wrinkles.

There is no need to get hung up on a single zone. Alternating areas and involving different areas will help create a harmonious appearance, solve various problems, and achieve overall tone.

To work with the lip area, it is important to clean the area of ​​makeup. To improve the condition of the skin, it is recommended to first make a moisturizing (nourishing) mask. It is unacceptable to exercise muscles if your skin is excessively dry.
