Facial yoga is a type of muscle training for the face, which is becoming more and more popular. Our face has around 25 to 35 muscles, which are specifically trained in face yoga. Muscle training can tighten the facial skin and reduce tension.

There are countless exercises to strengthen your facial muscles. They all have in common that by holding certain"grimaces"the underlying muscles are trained. Training these muscles creates more volume, which tightens the overlying skin.
