• or such a feature of appearance was passed on to you by inheritance,
• or as the Rabbit from the unforgettable cartoon “Winnie the Pooh and All-All-All” said, “this means someone is eating too much.”

If your face becomes round when you type excess weight, then this can be dealt with easily. It is more difficult to get rid of the problem if the shape of your face is inherited from you. In this case, only cosmetology will help.

How to remove cheeks using cosmetology:

1. Perform plastic surgery to reduce the volume of the cheeks
2. Non-surgical SMAS face lift for cheek lift
3. Thermolifting: laser or radio wave.

How do cosmetic procedures for cheek reduction work:

1. Surgical cheek reduction

Between the buccal muscle and the superficial muscles of the face there is a fatty formation, the so-called Bisha lump. The lumps have a very high density, so general weight loss through sports or special diets does not make them smaller.

The surgeon will suggest that you remove these lumps and reduce excess volume in your cheeks. How does this happen?

Under local or general anesthesia, the surgeon makes a small (1-2 cm) incision on the inner surface cheeks to access excess fat. Excess fat is either removed completely or moved to the cheekbones to create additional volume. Next, the incision is sutured with a cosmetic suture.

The likelihood of complications is minimal. In rare cases, an inflammatory process may develop. The most important thing is to find an experienced doctor, since the facial nerves and ducts of the salivary glands pass next to the lumps. It is important not to damage them.

2. Cheek lift using SMAS face lifting machine

If you want to tighten your cheeks without surgery, then this procedure is ideal for you. Altera deeply affects skin tissue without incisions or violating its integrity.

The concentrated ultrasonic waves of the device heat up the soft tissues. As a result, the process of fat burning in the problem area is activated and blood circulation improves, the facial frame is tightened.

Altera will help remove “chubby” cheeks not only for young, but also for older women.

Altera is the only procedure that affects not only the skin, but also the underlying layer - SMAS. Also, Alter's ultrasonic waves trigger the process of synthesis of new collagen and elastin fibers, so the results of the procedure increase over the course of several months.

Until now, many cosmetologists claim that this technique shows the safest and most long-term result of facial weight loss and skin rejuvenation.

3. Reducing cheek volume with

Another way to get rid of cheeks without plastic surgery. Different types thermolifting lead to one effect - heating of tissues, right down to subcutaneous fat. At a temperature of 42 degrees, proteins denature (fold), and collagen fibers (the framework for the skin) become denser and compressed. Damage to collagen leads to stimulation of new collagen.

A wide face is a problem that concerns not only ordinary people.

Expert comment:

Probably one of the most famous attempts to narrow her face was made by the singer Cher. Rumor has it that she had several chewing teeth removed to correct her broad facial features.

We don't know if this is true or not, but modern approaches won't require you to sacrifice your digestion.

Optical illusions, or why relative facial proportions are often more important than absolute ones

Do you perceive your face as wide? To narrow it down, it is not at all necessary to go to South Korea and undergo a complex operation to cut away excess bone tissue. In most cases, it is enough to change the “weight distribution” of the features on the face.

Expert comment:

Lindsey Wixson

For example, there is the three-thirds rule, which was formulated by Leonardo da Vinci.

According to the rule, the face can be divided into 3 parts by two horizontal lines. One of them runs along the line of the eyebrows, the second - at the level of the base of the nose. For the face to appear beautiful and harmonious, it is necessary that 3 parts - from the base of the hair to the eyebrow line, from the eyebrow line to the base of the nose and from the base of the nose to the chin - are equal.

In a harmoniously beautiful face, the distance from the hair growth to the eyebrow line, from the eyebrow line to the base of the nose and from the base of the nose to the chin is approximately the same.

If in the background round face measurements show a lack of chin area, to narrow the face you won’t have to remove the cheeks - it will be enough . This simple manipulation will significantly lengthen and narrow your face. That is why before each procedure we carry out a series of measurements and mathematical calculations.

There are different methods to change the “weight distribution” of traits. From playing with light and shadow when applying cosmetics to permanent methods of plastic surgery.

We will not talk about the most obvious reason for facial fullness associated with excess weight. If after losing weight you do not get the desired effect, then you need to look for other ways to make a wide face narrow.

We will start our story with home remedies, then we will talk about the latest low-traumatic developments in the field of cosmetology and plastic surgery.

To get a narrow face, you must first visit the dentist

But not at all for the reason for which Cher did it.

One of the common reasons for a wide face is a low bite and worn teeth. As a rule, the problem in this case is accompanied by crunching and pain in the jaw joint, headaches.

To solve the problem, the dentist raises the bite with crowns, removes excess load from the jaw joint and returns the correct contours to the face. The face becomes narrower.

This is what faces with a low bite (on the left) and a normal bite (on the right) look like.

Do exercises help narrow a face with wide cheekbones?

To narrow the face, face-building instructors recommend training the muscles of the cheek-zygomatic region, and in theory, the exercises can have a good effect.

Facial fitness or a new gadget for facial gymnastics.

We will not dissuade you from gymnastics, because keeping your facial muscles toned is useful in any case.

Unfortunately, you won’t be able to “pump up” just one or a couple of muscles in isolation. To one degree or another, all groups of facial muscles will be loaded, including those zones that expand the face.

How to apply blush to narrow your face

If you apply makeup correctly, your face will be visually narrower and slimmer.

To narrow your face with blush, you need to make the skin under your cheekbones a shade darker. For this purpose, dark blush, dark shades of foundation or matte bronzer are suitable, which makes the skin tanned.

How to apply these products?

With your mouth closed, lower your lower jaw and draw in your cheeks. The cheekbone line is clearly drawn on the face.

Apply a dark shade to the area under the cheekbones, moving from the center of the cheek to the ear.

We apply highlighter to the top point of the cheekbones to emphasize: everything light appears visually larger.

All cosmetics should be used without fanaticism and the line of transition from one tone to another should be shaded so that the face does not lose its naturalness.

The second way is to focus on the eyes and eyebrows to distract the viewer’s gaze from the cheeks. We paint the eyelashes in two layers, giving a neat shape to the eyebrows.

The main advantage of this method is that you can narrow your face with makeup in a few minutes, on your own and almost free of charge.

Posing skills and accessories will make a wide face visually narrower

What to do if you need to make a narrow face “here and now”, urgently? For example, you have a photo shoot coming up. Remember how celebrities pose.

The mouth is slightly open, the teeth are open. In this position, the chin drops, the face visually stretches, the cheeks recede a little, the cheekbones stand out and in general the face seems narrower - that’s the whole secret. Just lower the lower part of your face a little – and voila, a great photo is guaranteed!

Look, for example, at how Jennifer Lopez poses:

And here is the result:

Jennifer Lopez

To make your face visually narrower, you can use glasses with square frames. This accessory works in two directions at once. On the one hand, it makes the temple area more massive, and thereby hides a wide face in the cheek area. On the other hand, it distracts the eye from the massive line of the lower jaw.

The same effect can be achieved with side bangs or a voluminous hairstyle.

If temporary measures do not suit you, and you want to narrow your round face for a long time, pay attention to cosmetic methods.

How to make a face using cosmetic methods

1. For general fullness of the face, lipolytics are recognized as the most effective and INNO-TDS Draining ppc. These drugs safely “burn” and remove excess subcutaneous fat.
   
   Their effect is comparable to liposuction, so do not trust the procedure to a cosmetologist. The drug should not get beyond the fatty areas. The procedure should only be performed by a doctor who is familiar with facial anatomy in detail.

   

   “Before” and 10 days “after” rhinoplasty (surgeon) and removal of Bisha’s lumps (surgeon). The lower third of the face stretched out, the heaviness of the cheeks went away. The face looks lighter and more harmonious.

   
   

   It is important to understand that in order to perform an operation, the doctor must have a well-developed sense of proportion. There is a risk of getting excessive cheek retraction after removing Bisha's lumps. Then the face takes on a tired, haggard appearance. At Platinental we remove just enough to keep the face fresh, natural and attractive.

2. Laser facial liposuction. In this case, the destruction of fat cells is carried out by laser. A cannula with a laser attachment is inserted through punctures in the anatomical folds in the ear area.

After fat removal, the cannula is switched to collagen stimulation mode - this way the skin recovers and tightens faster after the procedure.

The procedure allows you to get rid of fat deposits and narrow your face without scars - two-millimeter punctures heal without a trace.

3. With initial age-related skin sagging – – thread lifting helps to cope. The threads pull the soft tissues upward, making the face noticeably narrower and slimmer.

Photos "before" and "after"

Many women are eager to learn how makeup artists use makeup to make their faces smaller.

Professional cosmetics allow you to change appearance and significantly mask imperfections.

First, apply makeup base cream to clean skin. Then your face will not float and your cosmetics will last a long time. For healthy skin, BB cream is suitable. Apply a small amount all over the face and allow to be absorbed. Those who do not have such a cream use any moisturizer.

If there are spots on the skin, they are masked with corrector or concealer. These concealers are applied over the base.

Concealers come in pink, light beige or green. With their help, mesh, red spots or dark circles under the eyes.

After all skin imperfections have been worked out, move on to foundation. To narrow the face, mentally draw a perfect oval. Then they take Foundation, 1 tone darker than the skin, and apply the contours of this oval to the face. The outer part of the drawn face is treated with a dark tone, and the inner part is made a tone lighter. Transitions are shaded very carefully. For mature women, it is recommended to choose mousse instead of cream. It is lighter and does not wrinkle.

After applying the tones, move on to blush. They will help narrow a large face and create an oval shape. The selected blush is applied in the form of a triangle from the middle of the cheek to the temples.

How to make your cheeks smaller?

After working with highlighter, use powder in dark shades. It is applied to the middle of the cheek (just below the wings of the nose, but above the corner of the lips) and pulled parallel to the lines of the eyebrow and lower cheekbone. The dark line should go under the light stripe.

If you want to make your cheeks look sunken, use bronzer. It is applied with a brush under the upper cheekbone, to the place that sags when trying to draw in the cheeks. If you apply bronzer to your temples and sides of your forehead and highlight the line of your lower cheekbones, your face will become narrower. The remaining parts are treated with powder with a shade that matches the natural tone.

When working with bronzer and powder, always make sure that the boundaries of application are not visible. Using a brush, carefully shade everything.

Video: how to get rid of sagging cheeks

Many owners of chubby cheeks dream of an ideal oval face. However, is it worth dreaming in vain if it is possible to get what you want without even going under the surgeon’s knife? In the current issue we will introduce our readers to the art of make-up modeling. How to make your face smaller with makeup? Get tips from the world's makeup gurus.

To elongate your face and reduce the volume of your cheeks, you will need compact (combination and oily skin) or cream (mature and dry skin) products in two colors - light and dark, as well as blush. Correction of the oval face with the help of cosmetics is achieved by darkening areas that need to be reduced and highlighting those areas where volume needs to be increased.

1. Shadings

Shadings (from the English “shade” - shadow) are modeling products for the face that allow you to reduce its volume by darkening certain areas. As a result of applying shading, missing shadows appear on the face, making it more proportional and prominent. Proper contouring, as well as moderation in the use of darkening products, can improve the shape of the face while maintaining its naturalness. Excessive shading on the face is completely inappropriate in everyday makeup. According to the generally accepted rules of makeup, the following areas of the face are subjected to modeling with shading:

• hairline;
• temporal zones;
• orbital ossicles (edges of the eye sockets);
• wings of the nose;
• areas under the prominent bones of the cheekbones;
• chin;
• lateral surfaces of the neck.

To start modeling your face, prepare a dark powder or foundation one or two shades darker than your natural skin color. If you wish, you can complement your makeup with blush and shadows from a dark beige or gray-brown palette (necessarily without any admixture of red and red). Give preference to matte and satin textures of cosmetics. For application compact means Use angled brushes with natural bristles. As for cream shading, they interact much better with synthetic brushes, cosmetic sponges and fingers. To visually lengthen your face, draw in your cheeks and, using shading, draw a comma on the formed depressions - its head should be under the “apples” of your cheeks, and the tail should look towards the hairline. If necessary, narrow the square or rectangular face apply shading under the earlobes. If there is a need to “tighten” the oval of the face, shade the jawline and blend it towards the neck. Using shading to highlight its wings will help hide a wide nose. But to visually shorten a long nose, darken its tip and bridge of the nose.

2. Highlighters

Highlighters (from the English “highlight” - to highlight something, to focus attention), like shading, are designed to model the oval of the face. However, unlike darkening agents, they, on the contrary, highlight certain areas of the face, creating radiant highlights and light spots on its surface. The main purpose of using highlighters is to emphasize the winning aspects of one’s appearance and thereby divert attention from its imperfections. It is customary to highlight prominent areas of the face with highlighters, namely:

• cheekbones;
• center of forehead;
• bridge of the nose and bridge of the nose;
• center of the chin;
• area under the eyebrows;
• inner corners of the eyes;
• nasolabial folds;
• center, corners of the lips, contour of the upper lip;
• the depression between the nose and upper lip.

There are compact, crumbly, liquid and creamy highlighters. For modeling the oval of the face, liquid and cream products are most preferable. Liquid highlighters are convenient to use when you need to apply thin strips, for example, in the area of ​​the lips or eyebrows. At the same time, cream products are good for treating large areas of the face - chin, cheekbones, bridge of the nose, etc. Highlighters with reflective particles have the best modeling properties. The color range of such cosmetic products is quite extensive - transparent, mother-of-pearl, white, golden, pink, lilac, etc. The application of highlighter should be preceded by applying a tone to the face. Now let's talk about the intricacies of using highlighters. To narrow your face, draw a light line in the center of the forehead and chin, as well as on the bridge of the nose and in the dimple above the upper lip. Highlighting the temporal zones and the area under the eyebrows will slightly “raise” the cheekbones. Highlighting the areas under and above the eyebrows with a highlighter is necessary if you want to create a forehead and lines brow ridges visually higher. To make your eyes appear larger, lighten the inner corners or bridge of your nose. A light vertical line drawn along the bridge of the nose will create the effect of a shorter nose.

3. Blush

Another effective cosmetic product that allows you to reduce the proportions of your face. Blush with a slight pearlescent look on the skin is much better than matte ones. If you have fair skin, apply peach, soft or hot pink tones to your cheeks. For dark skin, blush in apricot, bronze, honey, raspberry or fuchsia shades is a priority. To create the illusion of a narrower face than it actually is, apply blush to the prominent parts of your cheekbones (the apples), and then blend the pigment towards your temples. It is important that the area highlighted with blush does not cross the hollows under the cheekbones and is not too close to the nose.
