How to lift cheeks naturally: make your face young and tight from the inside out

The cheek is located above the cheekbones, which is an important symbol of youthfulness on the face. The plump apple skin not only makes the face look more three-dimensional, but also reduces the presence of nasolabial folds and makes the whole face full of vitality. 

However, as we age, collagen is lost, subcutaneous fat is sagging, and the skin is loose, and the cheeks gradually sag, making our face look tired and old. Many people want to know: how to lift cheeses naturally?

This article will analyze in detail from six aspects: lifestyle, dietary nutrition, skin care habits, facial massage, facial exercise and non-invasive treatments to help you regain your firm and full apple skin.

Understand the causes of cheek sagging

To lift effectively, you must first understand the root cause of cheek sagging. The main reasons are:

Collagen loss: From the age of 25, collagen has decreased year by year, skin support has decreased, and facial tissues have sagged.

Gravity and facial habits: Long-term downing of your head, playing with your phone, holding your chin, or sleeping inappropriate position will accelerate your face sagging.

Fat loss and displacement: Facial fat is reduced or displaced, and the cheeks are no longer full.

Bad living habits: staying up late, smoking, drinking, and lack of exercise will accelerate aging.

Lifestyle adjustment: delay sagging from the source

Maintain regular routine

Ensure 7-8 hours of sleep every day to give the skin enough time to repair it. Staying up late for a long time can lead to dull and loose skin.

Control the use of electronic products

Reduce the time to bow your head, avoid long-term pressure on the neck and facial muscles, and prevent the soft tissues of the facial tissue from sagging continuously.

Improve sleeping position

Try to sleep on your back to avoid asymmetry caused by long-term pressure on one side of the face.

Smoking cessation and alcohol restriction

Free radicals in tobacco destroy collagen, alcohol dehydrates the skin and accelerates aging.

Dietary nutrition

Dietary conditioning can provide raw materials for the skin and help delay aging.

High-quality protein: fish, eggs, soy products, helps to synthesize collagen.

Vitamin C: Strawberries, kiwis, citrus, promote collagen synthesis.

Omega-3 fatty acids: deep-sea fish, flax seeds, keep the skin moist and full.

Antioxidant foods: blueberries, spinach, nuts, resist free radical damage.

Skin care habits: daily maintenance is essential

Stick to sun protection

Ultraviolet rays are the number one killer of skin photoaging. You use SPF30 or above every day to prevent collagen from being damaged.

Use skin care products containing anti-aging ingredients

Retinol: stimulates collagen synthesis and improves firmness.

Peptide: Helps repair skin barriers and enhances elasticity.

Antioxidants: such as vitamin C and astaxanthin to prevent free radical destruction.

Regular use of facial masks. Hydrating masks can increase the moisture content of the skin and make the apple skin look fuller.

Facial massage: double the effect of the technique

Facial massage can promote blood circulation, lymphatic detoxification, and improve skin elasticity.

Common massage techniques

Lifting technique: Pull the nasolabial folds on both sides of your hands upward to the cheekbones, and stick to 5 minutes a day.

Lymph detoxification: Gently press along the mandible to promote facial waste metabolism and reduce swelling.

Peripheral lift: Pull outward from the inner corner of the eye to prevent the deepening of bags and tear troughs of the eye.

Case sharing: Ms. Zhang, 30, insisted on using essential oil to massage the cheeks after washing her face every day. After 3 months, her face contours became clearer and her complexion improved.

Facial exercise: natural skin-pulling

Facial muscle exercise is a natural and free method that strengthens the muscles that support the cheeks and improves sagging.

Recommended action

Upward training

Smile upwards, stick to 5 seconds, repeat 20 times, and 2 sets a day.

Cheek-blowing exercise

Puff your cheeks and hold them for 10 seconds, then slowly relax, repeat for 10 times to enhance the strength of the zygomatic muscles.

Tongue to the upper jaw

Press the tongue against the upper palate, and lift the chin upwards, keep it for 10 seconds to exercise the muscles near the jaw and zygomatic bones.

Long-term persistence can make the face more supportive and the cheeks will naturally lift up.

Non-invasive treatment: a gentle and efficient choice

If you want to take effect faster and don’t want to get an injection or a knife, you can choose some non-invasive treatments:

Radio Frequency Skin Firming (RF)

RF Firming is a very popular non-invasive anti-aging project. It uses RF energy to penetrate deep into the dermis of the skin, accurately heats collagen fibers to immediately shrink, resulting in an instant tightening effect.

At the same time, warm stimulation can also activate fibroblasts, promote the production of new collagen and elastic fibers, and make the skin gradually tighter and fuller in the next few months. The radio frequency skin tightening process is almost painless and there is no need for recovery period after the operation.

It is suitable for people who are busy with work and do not want to take leave to repair. It is generally recommended to do it 2-3 times a year to maintain the best condition.

Ultrasonic knife (HIFU)

HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) is one of the few non-surgical items that can directly reach the fascial layer of SMAS. This layer is also the layer of action of traditional skin-removing surgery, so the lifting effect is very significant.

The ultrasonic knife forms a thermal solidification point in the fascial layer by focusing energy, stimulating collagen contraction and regeneration, thereby tightening the loose facial tissue and improving problems such as blurred jawline and sagging cheeks.

There will be a slight soreness during the treatment, but most people can tolerate it. After one treatment, you can see the initial effect of contour lifting and reach the best condition in about 3 months.

Microneedle combined with nutrition introduction

Microneedle therapy uses small needles to create uniform microchannels on the skin surface, stimulating the skin's self-healing mechanism and promoting collagen regeneration. Combining highly active ingredients such as nutrient solution, hyaluronic acid or PRP can allow the active ingredients to reach the dermis, enhancing the repair and anti-aging effects.

In addition to improving sagging, microneedle treatment can also reduce fine lines, reduce pores, and brighten the skin tone. It is a comprehensive skin youthful chemotherapy course. After treatment, the skin will feel a slight redness and will recover in 1-2 days. It is very suitable for people who are afraid of obvious recovery periods.

These non-invasive treatments are generally low invasive, fast in effect, and low in risk, and are particularly suitable for people who are afraid of pain and long-term recovery periods. Most projects last about 6-12 months. If you are combined with regular skin care, healthy work and facial exercise, the effect can be longer and the overall facial condition will be more stable and natural.

Comprehensive strategy: Multi-pronged approach to the best results

If you want to lift your apples naturally, the best solution is to combine lifestyle habits, diet, skin care and massage exercises + gentle treatments.

Young people focus on prevention, focusing on sun protection, good work and daily routine and facial exercise.

In the early stage of old age, anti-aging skin care, radio frequency skin tightening and other items can be added to maintain the effect.

For those with obvious relaxation, you can consider combining photoelectric therapy with daily maintenance, which will last longer.

Conclusion

The fullness of the cheeks directly affects the youthfulness of the facial body. Instead of waiting until the sagging is obvious before repairing, it is better to adjust your living habits, insist on massage and exercise, and scientific skin care from now on, and combine it with a gentle medical treatment course to gradually improve from the inside out.

The key to how to lift cheats naturally lies in persistence for a long time, forming a virtuous cycle, making your face look tight, upward and full of vitality at all times.
