This works - and you can do another exercise for the eyes along side it

I have been facial exercising for a while now, using the Eva Fraser and Carole Maggio methods. While I do not agree that facial exercise makes you look 'younger' per se....it does definitely tone and firm the muscles of the face and neck. The Facial Flex is a good addition to my routine; a little like lifting weights with your mouth corners! I have less sagging around my jaw, although like another poster mentioned, my cheeks have gone rather gaunt looking. If you have deep hollows under your eyes, you can lift the lower eyelids while you use Facial Flex, a little like squinting up with your lower eyelid as you work out. Try to close the eyes without using the upper eyelid. This makes the facial flex more difficult to use, but you feel like you are toning your whole face up to your forehead.
REALLY WORKS

I have always had nose to mouth lines, think I was born with them lol. Have been using this a few weeks and honestly they are definitely not as deep. Also, a really strange thing...I can actually feel the muscles in my cheeks which is quite weird. When I smile, I can feel the long cheek muscles if I press gently, so they must definitely be getting a work out. I am 41, and will continue using this device as i think it can only help improve facial structure. i have never reviewed anything before, so take my word and try it.

I had tried various exercises to reduce my double chin, but nothing worked. I saw results pretty fast with this device and it takes little time or effort to progress. I like that it is a very simple program, the device is easy to take with you and that you can get results without waiting for months. I am ready to go to the stronger bands after only 4 weeks at the lowest strength. I feel good about being able to find a non-surgical approach to this problem.
Worth your money!

I <3 the facial flex. After reading all the great reviews on this site, I was convinced to give it a try. Now I have been using the device for about 1 1/2 months and I already have deep definition under my cheekbones. People have asked me if I lost weight!! But take it slow, I think I am going to cut back a little bit because my face is starting to look a emaciated. But for anyone with chubby cheeks, this product is a must!! tip: as others have said, pull back the skin near your nasolabial folds while you exercise, otherwise you may develop deep creases.
WOW!!

I've been using it for a month now and I definitely see a difference! From the third day I noticed a tightening of the muscles around the jawline and in my case, how the area looks after the muscles receive the initial "shock" is a good indicator of how the area will look later. After a month of use, the sagging jowls around my mouth and that annoying bump under my chin are almost gone! I do recommend gently pulling the skin away at the nasolabial folds during use to avoid creases there...just a tip. I HIGHLY recommend this product!!!

I've been using Facial Flex Ultra 4 weeks without telling anyone. This weekend my daughter asked me if I had different make up or mascara on because my eyes looked lifted and my face looked younger. I said no change in the cosmetics...I'm using Facial Flex Ultra. I've noticed my sagging chin is tightening up and for me that's great. In the pic I'm the one on the far left and my daughter is next to me.
Best alternative to a face lift!

I'm 69 and have been using my Facial Flex for several years now. Definitely firms the underlying facial structure. The tips I've just read from other users: #1.Wrapping lips over teeth; and #2.Using fingers to smooth nose to mouth corners while using the Facial Flex really makes a difference and I will keep doing these two things. Who would go through the agony (and expense) of a face lift when you can fight age and gravity so nice and easy!!

After my chemo and radiation treatments my face lost a lot of elasticity. My eye lids become hooded over a period of time , accompanied by deep laugh lines and fround lines show the agony I had felt from my treatment's Facial Flex was my last attempted before plastic surgery. It is three years now, I look like my self again. Looking at my eye lids now is my new pass time. thank you for Facial Flex. I'm loving the skin I'm in once again!
I won't be without my facial-flex toner

I purchased this product after seeing it on TV about 4 years ago and immediately loved it. I was 63 then and still working and I could see the facial toning it was accomplishing with me using it about 4 times a week. Now I'm 67, retired and recently lost my facial-flex toner somewhere. I immediately reordered it because even though I am retired, I still want my face to look good. What a great product!! It goes with me wherever I go.
A Follow Up
Reviewer: CJ from

I decided to write a little follow-up review to my original one over two years ago. I have been using my Facial Flex twice daily over this period and it has made such a difference in my appearance. My face is toned, has good definition and looks younger than my 32 years. I can't recommend this product enough. However, there are a couple of things I want to mention for anyone using the Facial Flex. This first point is especially for those who have found that they have developed creases from using the device. You must, and I stress the must part, hold your mouth at the sides whilst doing the compressions. Place your fingers at the sides of your mouth and pull the skin out, aiming roughly toward your ears. This will prevent creases/grooves from forming or your nasal folds becoming more pronounced. The second point concerns regular use. You can't stop and start with this device and still expect to see results. You must use it every day (twice daily is ideal) and do the compressions until you really feel it. If you need to, increase the time you spend exercising with the unit and go up a band size. At the moment, I'm working with two 14oz bands on the product and do two sets of three minutes each (a total of six minutes) twice daily. It is important not to rush up the band sizes, though: I've worked my way up to this level. My final point is actually a small gripe about the bands themselves. I have ordered many sets of bands over the 2+ years I've been using the Facial Flex and I have noticed that in every packet I've received, the band thicknesses are not uniform. There needs to be some sort of improved quality control when manufacturing and sorting these bands to ensure that they are all the same size and thickness. To conclude, I've got to reiterate how overjoyed I am with the Facial Flex. Used diligently and with care, it will work wonders with your face, specifically your jawline and cheeks.
