I have read that some people have developed lines or their facial lines become worse after using the tool
You do feel your muscles working, in particular the sides of the mouth, lower cheek and neck. I have read that some people have developed lines or their facial lines become worse after using the tool. To prevent this you need to isolate the muscle. This ensures that you don't develop or make lines worse. Another benefit of doing this is that it makes the movement a bit more difficult and therefore I use my bands longer. You isolate your muscle by using your fingers at the spots that tend to wrinkle. Let's say you want to work the sides of your mouth, place your finger at each side of the mouth with a bit of firmness. Go on youtube and search for a video called how best to use facial flex video demonstration (Facial flex Europe) to get a visual. MOISTURIZE 1st, ENSURE that the large side is in your mouth NOT the smaller. I did it with the larger side out initially and my jaws started to pop like TMJ. So I gave it a break for about 2 months. I later found out that the larger side should have been placed in the mouth. I've been ok since. I think the book Facial Fitness by Patricia Goroway is great.I also isolate the muscles with her techniques. Her exercises are very simple, except the one with the nose :). I think I would try her's 1st to see if you get results ( videos on YouTube). If you have horizontal lines on your forehead her simple exercise eliminated mine. Plus I started drinking more water to keep my skin hydrated. Try her 1st. Take a before picture. Then do an after pic in about 2 weeks for the facial flex. If you try Patricia's exercise take a picture in about 1 week of doing it consistently. Facerobics on youtube is another one that is ok-ish but too complicated for me. I want simple. I hope this helps someone.
