Face yoga is one of the trendiest types of yoga. The big advantage is that the exercises are very easy and can be practiced in the comfort of your chair. In order to see the first results, you need to practice your facial exercises regularly six to seven days a week for 20 to 30 minutes a day. According to experts, it takes at least three to four weeks before you start noticing results. As these exercises can be actually harmful if you have a pre-determined medical condition, you may need to consult your dermatologist before starting to perform them.



 Will you look younger?

 Many studies on this topic have been published over the past few years and most of them point out that if practiced regularly, this type of yoga can actually help you rejuvenate your skin. These facial workouts help reduce wrinkles, minimize the signs of facial aging and also help fill in sunken cheeks. By strengthening and developing your eyelid, eyebrow, jaw and cheek muscles, you will definitely look younger and your skin will go through a dramatic rejuvenation process.

By properly covering all layers of your skin, at-home facial massage can also increase blood circulation, allowing more oxygen and nutrients to reach skin cells.
