Doing one Facial Exercise doesn’t work

We always say that facial muscles are interconnected and doing one facial exercise simply doesn’t do a lot. This means that they work together to perform a wide range of expressions and movements. The muscles of the face are divided into several groups, including the orbicularis oculi (around the eyes), the orbicularis oris (around the mouth), the zygomaticus (around the cheeks), and the platysma (around the neck). Each of these muscle groups plays a specific role in your facial expression and movement.

How do these work together?

For example, when you smile, multiple muscle groups work together to create the expression. The zygomaticus muscles pull the corners of the mouth up and out, while the orbicularis oris muscles contract to purse the lips. At the same time, the orbicularis oculi muscles contract to create wrinkles around the eyes, you know these as “crow’s feet”. This coordinated effort of multiple muscle groups is what gives a smile its natural and dynamic appearance. Jawning, sneezing and so many other facial reflexes involve even more muscle groups at once to do just one facial expression. That’s why it is super important to work on all of them for the best outcome.

Why one Facial Exercise won’t move the needle

One single facial exercise may not be enough to improve your overall facial aesthetic. By focusing on one muscle group, you may see improvement in that specific area, but the rest of the face may still appear unbalanced or asymmetrical. To achieve a more comprehensive and natural-looking improvement, it is essential to include a variety of exercises that target different muscle groups of the face. This is why we love to take a holistic approach at All You Can Face that targets all muscle groups. This will help to lift and sculpt your entire face rather than just one area. The same criteria apply to facial massages. Just doing one facial massage might not bring you the effect that you are after when compared to treating your entire face.
The result? A more awake and balanced appearance.

Pay Attention

Moreover, facial muscles like any other muscle adapt to the stress you put on them. If you repeat the same exercise over and over again, the muscle will get used to it. Therefore, it is important to vary the exercises and target different muscle groups just like on your body.
That’s why we love to take a holistic approach at All You Can Face that targets your entire face every day. Of course, the focus may vary in extent but it will always be relying on treating your entire face.
