The support of facial muscles plays a vital part on the appearance of one's skin. With the presence of wrinkles and loose skins on the neck and throat area, it makes one appear much older than he/she is supposed to look. That is why facial exercises designed for the neck and throat area was developed to help the muscles remain smooth and firm to show a much younger looking skin.

Here are some suggested facial exercises that would benefit the neck and throat area. Read on the following instructions.

1. Sit upright and tilt the head back looking at the ceiling. Keep the lips closed and then start a chewing movement. Feel the muscles working in the neck and throat area and be amazed of the results. Do the procedure for 20 times.

2. Sit upright and tilt head back looking at the ceiling and keep lips closed and relaxed. Start puckering the lips together in a kiss and stretch it as if it was trying to kiss the ceiling. Keep the lips puckered for 10 counts then relax. Bring the head back to its normal position and repeat the procedure 5 times.

3. Sit upright with head back looking at the ceiling. Keep lips closed and relaxed. Move the lower over the top lip as far as possible and keep it until the count of 5. Relax and repeat the procedure 5 times.

4. Lie on the bed with head hanging down over the edge. Slowly bring up the head up towards the torso and keep it there until the count of ten. Relax and lower the head towards the floor again. Repeat the procedure 5 times.

5. While lying on the bed, hang the head down over the edge. Slowly bring the head up towards the torso until the count of 10. Relax and lower the head towards the floor and repeat the procedure for 5 times.

The chin, neck and throat area is difficult to treat. But with regular facial exercise, a smoother and firmer neck plus a compact chin will make one look years younger.
