Rise of the ‘smartphone face’: Is technology to blame for sagging complexions?
I think that it is possible to stop and even reverse the look of a sagging jaw. First of all realign your computer monitor so that you are not looking down. Chin level, looking straight ahead is probably the best advantage for your face. The same with your phone…be aware of your facial posture, perhaps an ear piece would be helpful and if you’re using Face Time, position the phone more eye level.
Facial exercise will help correct those sagging jowls and that wattle. Try this exercise at your desk…(lift your chin, nestle your tongue flat in the roof of your mouth, push up with your tongue and count to five)
Read MoreFacelifts at 50 are an ugly betrayal
Sandra Parsons, author of the following article, Facelifts at 50 are an ugly betrayal, reminds us that “the simple truth is that all you have to do to look younger is lose a bit of weight, do some exercise and colour your hair. All it takes is the courage to start — because once you’ve begun, you won’t want to stop.”
That’s exactly why I love facial exercise. The movements create a vibrant, younger looking face. Heavy jowls and pouches? There’s a facial exercise for that! Tired of seeing droopy eyelids that impair your ability to wear your favorite eyeliner and shadows? Try this Upper Eye Exercise. Every portion of your face and neck can benefit from isometric exercise. No funny faces, puckers, twists or contortions.

Read MoreDo You Want a Chinplant?
Chinplants are becoming a household word now that they have been featured on many blogs, internet news sites and television shows. The procedure seems so simple, so safe for receding chins or short jaws…just a little slash with the scalpel and that dab of whatever the chosen material is soon inserted into your body. Poof! You look different; your jaw line looks tapered yet strengthened and contoured. Maybe the double chin has lessened as your previously benign chin is certainly more dominant.
Read MoreCan Too Much Plastic Surgery Change Your Personality?
Unique characteristics define us and this includes our facial characteristics; if you cut and suture your beautiful face, you may not like the results in more ways than one because psychologists say that your self-definition may be affected. You could feel disconnected from your face because it no longer looks and feels like you. Ladies, stop cutting your faces and learn to exercise it. Sagging facial muscles and skin do not need a surgical correction, rather, exercise will lift, tone and tighten those features that you believe detract from your youthfulness.
Read MoreWhitney Houston Was Refused Facelift After Medical Exam – Weeks Before Death
Such sad news that one of our favorite song birds left us recently. Whitney Houston had long been one of my favorite stars and her voice was magical when she sang songs that demonstrated her range of talent.
Several articles were released after her passing suggesting that she had contemplated a surgical face lift and that her surgeon, Dr. Marc Mani refused the singers request. I understand that this young, beautiful and talented woman was denied the procedure due to medical testing for heart, liver and lung function.

I was in Florida for seminars and met Paul Allen, publisher of NuYou Magazine, and his lovely wife, Tracy. They attended an Innisbrook workshop where I got to work “magic” on Tracy’s face.
