One of the most well-known face yoga exercises, Hagen likes this one as an “overall facial stretch that also helps tone the eye area.” To start, “breath in and scrunch all your muscles” from head to toe, including “face, fists, and buttocks,” then “exhale and stick out your tongue and widen your eyes, and repeat three times.” This brow workout and tension reliever starts with creating a C shape with your hands and placing them over your eyes “as though you were holding binoculars.” Next, gently position index fingers above eyes “so that they are parallel to your eyebrows, and rest your thumbs under your eyes just above the cheeks,” Lewis says. Next, “Pull down on your eyebrows with your index fingers while you try to raise your forehead, making your eyes wide and hold for two seconds, relax, and repeat five times.”
“Face yoga is a description for exercises performed to tone and stretch facial muscles,” explains Dr. Amy B. Lewis, a dermatologist and certified yoga instructor based in New York. A more holistic approach to face sculpting than fillers and injectables, “face yoga has become extremely popular among existing yogis and newcomers,” she says. Annelise Hagen, the author of The Yoga Face, is a certified yoga therapist who’s been teaching and studying face yoga since 2005 (and traditional yoga since the early ’90s). “Muscles lose mass and volume with age, so target-exercising face muscles as one would the body will sculpt, firm, and plump,” Hagen says, noting that anyone can practice its methods “with caution and, hopefully, supervision” in the same way they would traditional workouts. “An older person can still drive benefit from practicing yoga techniques that promote facial rejuvenation, and a younger person can cultivate habits that will last a lifetime plus prevent sags that could happen with atrophy and lack of exercise.”
Over the past few years, and thanks in no small part to TikTok, face yoga has become one of the most discussed above-the-neck sculpting techniques. While #faceyoga has now clocked over 500 million views, celebs from Meghan Markle to Gwyneth Paltrow have already touted the powers of facial fitness designed to lift and tone muscles naturally. There are even instructors teaching lessons IRL (we talked to them), with sessions popping up on ClassPass and apps like Luvly creating personalized face yoga routines. But what is face yoga and what are the real benefits?
