There is no definitive bible on “how to lose face fat”! Unfortunately, there is no miraculous cure or device that can make your double chin disappear. There is no proof that some slimming straps and gadgets can help reduce facial fat. Diet and lifestyle modifications that last a long time are usually necessary to lose body fat. However, face-slimming exercises and facial yoga can be effective supplements to your overall fitness journey that can help reduce your facial fat!
How to reduce face fat?
Spot reduction is the process of reducing fat in a particular area of the body. Despite several assertions in the fitness industry about the possibility of precisely targeting fat loss in the face, there is less data to back up the idea of spot reduction. This can be because your body stores fat, which can be broken down and used as fuel when you exercise. These fat reserves could originate from anywhere on your body, not only the place where you're working out. Maybe the best and most long-term way to reduce fat in your face is to work on your general fat reduction.
What are the best face fat reduction exercises?
Cardio
It’s as simple as cardio! When trying to shed pounds, aerobic, or cardiovascular, exercise may be your best bet. There is a wide range of intensities that people may use while doing cardiovascular activities. While both low- and high-intensity exercises contribute to overall fat reduction, studies demonstrate that high-intensity workouts may get the same results in less time. Losing weight, in general, will make you seem slimmer all over.
Okay, we know you’re here for the face slimming exercises- so here’s a deep dive on facial yoga!
Facial yoga: what is it?
A more natural alternative to injectables and fillers, "face yoga" refers to a series of exercises designed to strengthen and lengthen the muscles of the face. Sculpting, firming, and plumping the facial muscles—just like any other part of the body—will counteract the natural ageing process of losing mass and volume. Even in old age, there are yoga poses and methods that may help rejuvenate the face, and even in youth, there are ways to build habits that will last a lifetime and even avoid the sagging that can result from inactivity and muscle loss.
The right way to practise face yoga
The 57 muscles that make up your face and neck may be gently strengthened with face yoga, which usually focuses on one set of muscles at a time. Doing certain facial yoga poses repeatedly can tighten your skin and facial muscles. Face yoga may benefit you in three primary ways: To start, you may increase your muscle tone and tightness by activating them. Secondly, these exercises enhance blood flow and circulation, contributing to skin healing and overall health. Lastly, they alleviate stress-related tension in the facial muscles. Even though there are a ton of variations to attempt, the most important thing is to keep your face relaxed and not squint too much when you complete these exercises. Lifting and extending should take centre stage instead. To get the most out of it, we recommend practising 20 minutes a day for six weeks.

Jivha Bandha
For a jawline and face chisel, this is the move to do. Gently press the back of your tongue on your top lip as you sit down on the floor. Press your tongue firmly against the wall to stretch your neck. Go through this motion four or five times.
Simha Mudra
Perform the Simha Mudra, also known as the Lion Pose, to strengthen and sculpt your whole face. Put your hands on your thighs and kneel comfortably on the ground. Forcefully stick your tongue out and extend it downwards. Make it as long as possible. As you do this, let out a lion's roar.
The crowning
Since a lot of common face problems are "symptoms of bad posture," this pose was designed to promote keeping the head in a "neutral position" relative to the spine and upper body. "Put a book on your head or wear a crown and practice excellent, regal posture," the instructions say, and "cultivate a mysterious smile" that slightly flexes the lips without squinting the eyes. The effect is to make the neck longer, the shoulders lower, and the chin higher. For those who are always hunched over electronic gadgets, this is a must-have.
The owl pose
Starting with your hands in a C shape, place them over your eyes "as though you were holding binoculars." This can help reduce stress and strengthen your brow muscles. Then, with your thumbs resting just above the cheekbones, place your index fingers softly over your eyes, aligning them parallel to your eyebrows. Then, using your index fingers to draw down on your eyebrows, open your eyes wide, and hold for two seconds. Then, relax and repeat the process five times.
