How to Alleviate a Double Chin

The infamous double chin---that accumulation of skin and fat around the neck area---is one of the first signs of weight gain for many individuals. Unfortunately, the proximity to the face and lack of cover beneath clothing makes it the most apparent sign as well. Alleviating the signs of a double chin is a joint effort of both revised exercise and eating habits and smart dressing. With a few basic changes you can have your double chin under control very quickly.

Instructions

1

Practice good posture. Standing up straight is considered a sign of strength and energy, but it also has immense health benefits for the entire body. You'll get tired at first because it takes more effort to straighten the spine and neck, but in the process you'll elongate the neck, which will mask the effects of a double chin.

2

Make basic wardrobe changes, opting for V-neck shirts and wider neck holes as opposed to turtlenecks, button collars, and crew cut shirts. When trying to hide a double chin, the goal is to draw the eye away from the neck area rather than toward it. These basic changes will minimize the relative size of the neck in proportion to the head, shoulders and chest.

3

Chew gum. You might be surprised what gum can do for alleviating a double chin. Choose sugar-free brands so that you can exercise your jaw and chin muscles all day long. The constant repetition will tone the area around your mouth, drawing up the surrounding skin and replacing some of that fat with muscle.

4

Exercise the platysma muscle. This is the muscle directly under the mouth and behind the chin, and it is also the principal starting point for a double chin. By folding your bottom lip over your bottom row of teeth and pulling your lower jaw back into the neck, you'll isolate this muscle. Once you've isolated it, exercise it by lifting the lower jaw up and down repeatedly as often as possible.

5

Consider broader lifestyle changes. Whether fat accumulates around the face and neck or elsewhere, weight gain is rarely a good thing unless specifically recommended by a doctor. Eat a lower calorie diet, focusing on fruits and vegetables with only sparing consumption of fats and sweets. "...Been hiding your age from the whole world? But for how many years will this keep on? Or got given up attempting those seducing anti aging creams, unpleasant surgery and unhealthy chemicals? Do Not Worry, dear. Below is a natural remedy to look and get younger, healthier and sexier than you are. So here it is for you Anti-aging Foods..". Exercise regularly, in addition to changing your diet, and you'll see a dramatic improvement in both alleviating the double chin and in your overall appearance.
