Droopy Chin....

[Misky]

Has anyone really ever got rid of their droopy chin? I'm quite thin and don't have a double chin as such, but the skin under my jawbone is sagging. I've seen the props you can buy to do the exercise, but has anyone any real-life experience where they've actually toned up this bit of their body? I keep forgetting to hold it up and catch sight of myself in a reflection and it ain't pretty! A shallow question, I know.

I have a friend who swears by this device, but to be honest I haven't noticed any difference in her

Oh I wish you'd said "and she looks 30 years younger..." lol

[mrs_overall]

OK...erm....she looks a bit younger....maybe by 6 months lol

I often think with these things, if they stop using them will they age quickly again and catch up to whats normal. You cant keep the wrinkles away forever no matter what you do. I once read that just raiding your head up to look at the ceiling and then down to rest your chin on your body could help

If you mix epsom salts with hot water into a thick paste and put it quite thickly onto a wide elsatic bandage or piece of stretchy fabric, then tie it under your chin as if you have the mumps as tight as you can stand it a couple of times a week for an hour or so, your jawline stays quite firm. Both my mother and grandmother do this and both have good jawlines and lots of actors and actresses use this trick too.

Oh I've given up trying to do anything about wrinkles... and really Sharingan?! Really? I wonder if that's more of a prevention than a cure, but I just might try it. I think I'm too lazy though, and would be scared of the photos my husband would no doubt post on Facebook... lol

Yeah really, you can also use the same thing on other parts of your body as a temporary inch loss wrap and that does work for sure because I use it and have measureed it before I have any important pics taken.

I dont have a very defined jaw line or chin so tend to have the droopy skin issue as well. I spoke to a cosmetic surgeon about it and his soulution is surgery (obviously) because he says it really is just loose skin no real muscle that exercises will tighten. He also reccomended a chin implant to give a nice line but being a big coward I have decided to live with my lack of chin and droopy skin.

Sharingan....by this evening most of the female Abers will be sitting at their computers....looking like mummies. :-)

[mrs_overall]

Can someone report back later to let us know if it works on all droopy bits?

[gness]

And the AB men will be hiding in their sheds..... ;-)

Lol Gness the night before my step sister's wedding was like a horror film with us all wandering around in face maks and bandages.

No matter how thin or fat (fat now) - I never ever get a double chin. Altho wouldn't say to my sister or other friends - can't believe they can be so thin and still have actually double chin

My mum used to say that you open your mouth really wide, then tilt your head back as far as it will go, then slowly close your mouth. you can feel the neck tightening at the front. Don't know if it really works long-term, though....

[yogasun]

I like to think it does boxtops as it's an exercise I teach in my classes, so I often do it about 6 times a week and my jawline is fairly well defined (for my age!) but then it might have been anyway....no controlled experiment!!

This is supposed to work for a while and it isn't cheap.
