CHIN CARE

HOW TO PREVENT A DOUBLE CHIN

ONE FIRST SIGN OF AGING is getting that stub of flesh under the chin. It is termed as double chin. This little extra sag of flesh is an eyesore, and can make you look older than what you actually are. Apart from the age factor, loose facial muscles or improper eating habits may also lead to a double chin.

One way of preventing and getting rid of these unwanted baggy layers under your chin is to eat a nutritious meal.

Another way is to start and follow an exercise regimen. Well, you can try facial exercises. These will help you strengthen the slack muscles and remove the under-chin fat.

Learn how to get rid of a double chin with these exercises listed below.
