Exercises for youthful upper and lower eyelids and skin around the eyes. Raise the eyelids above the eyes - exercises and gymnastics on video Exercises for the muscles around the eyes
As sad as it may be, this moment The question is “how to tighten your eyelids?” worries many representatives of the fair sex.
Eyes are the most important part of the face; they largely determine the first impression that others have of us. Every woman tries to choose her makeup in such a way that her eyes appear even larger and more expressive.
But, unfortunately, the skin on our eyelids is very thin and delicate, and contains absolutely no fat. This is where the first wrinkles appear, often by the age of 25, and if a teenager uses cosmetics ineptly, even earlier.
By the age of 40, the ligaments connecting the upper eyelids with the levators also weaken(the muscles that lift them), all the eye muscles dry out and begin to atrophy. As a result, the wrinkled skin of the upper eyelids hangs over the eyes, visually making them smaller. The look becomes gloomy and tired, sometimes very heavy.
Rarely a woman can come to terms with the loss of beauty; most are looking for a way to preserve or return it.
How to tighten your upper eyelids? In this case, plastic surgeons offer their patients surgery – blepharoplasty. During this procedure, an incision is made along the natural fold line, through which excess skin and fiber are removed. But not everyone’s health and financial well-being allows them to go under the knife, and, besides, the result plastic surgery is not always predictable.
A way out of the situation could be performing eyelid exercises. After all, if any muscles of the body are weakened, they should be strengthened with the help of physical activity, the muscles of the eyelids are no exception. True, the effect of eyelid gymnastics will not be noticeable quickly. But still, with its help, with desire and patience, you can achieve very significant achievements.
Do eyelid exercises several times daily, and within a couple of months you will see noticeable results. The eyes will become more expressive and open, their puffiness will decrease, and visual acuity will increase.
Moreover, it is not at all necessary to wait until the moment when you need to tighten your eyelids. Train them constantly from a young age, do not neglect cosmetic procedures, get good sleep - and the appearance of your eyes will please you for a very long time.
A set of strengthening and tightening exercises for the eyelids
It is better to do preventive and rejuvenating gymnastics while sitting on a chair in front of a mirror to see which muscles are working.
1. To warm up, do exercise that strengthens the muscles of the eyes and increases their mobility:
– Look ahead for a few seconds, then slowly move your eyes to the left all the way, after a few seconds - up, after - to the right and after a short pause - down. The eyes gradually turn clockwise. In each position, the gaze is fixed for a couple of seconds.
Do this for 5 circles and repeat in reverse order, moving your gaze counterclockwise.
2. Exercise for the upper eyelids “fast blinking”
– Raise your head up, direct your gaze to the ceiling, open your mouth and blink quickly for at least half a minute.
3. Exercise “on duty”
– Close your eyes tightly, count to yourself to three, then open them wide, looking into the distance. Then close your eyelids tightly again. The forehead and eyebrows remain motionless, only the upper ones work
muscles.
Repeat 5 times in a row.
4. – Open your eyes, place your fingertips to your temples. Pull the skin back slightly, being careful not to stretch it too much. Quickly close and open your eyes for about half a minute. Make sure that your fingers do not move, only your eyelids move.
5. Next exercise, which helps tighten the eyelids, is called “Geisha”
– Close your eyes. Using the pads of your index fingers, hold the skin above the outer corners of your eyes, applying gentle pressure. Overcoming the pressure of your fingers, try to raise your upper eyelids as high as possible, hold them in this position for a couple of seconds, then lower them and relax.
6. – Repeat the previous exercise, placing the pads of your index fingers just above the inner corners of your eyes.
7. The “butterfly wings” exercise helps to remove drooping eyelids.
– Close your eyes and place your index fingers on your upper eyelids, perpendicular to the line of your nose or at an angle of 45 degrees to it. Overcoming the resistance of your fingers, open your eyes as wide as possible, and after a couple of seconds close them again. The eyebrows should not move.
8. Exercise for the upper eyelids “look at your nose”
– Tilt your head up as far as you can, and lower your eyelids as low as possible and stay in this position for 5 seconds. Then relax.
9. – To relax the eye muscles, rub your palms together to warm them up. Close your eyes, but don't squint. Shape your palms into a boat shape and cover the eye area with them without touching the eyelids. Sit in this position until you feel that your eyes and eyelids have had enough rest.
It is recommended to perform such simple gymnastics for the eyelids twice a day, doing each exercise (except for the last) 5-6 times.
It can be done at home, setting aside just 15 minutes of time in the morning and evening, or even at work, especially if it involves sitting at the computer for many hours. So you will get double benefit– tighten your eyelids (or prevent them from drooping) and eliminate visual fatigue.

Professional athletes and just supporters active image lives keep fit and relief body for a long time, thanks to constant training.
Likewise, as a result of appropriate gymnastics, the atrophied muscles of the eyelids are strengthened and tightened.
And even if drooping eyelids are removed with blepharoplasty, the doctor will still recommend doing eyelid exercises in the future. This is not surprising, doctors remove only the effect, but the cause still remains, muscle atrophy and skin aging continue, and regular exercise is the only effective method their suspension.

To prevent thin skin under the eyes from sagging, get rid of wrinkles around the eyes and maintain vision and eye health, all important structures, including the skin, must have a good blood supply. This is equally necessary for the delicate mechanisms of the eyeball and for the thin skin under the eyes. Therefore, it is possible to remove wrinkles around the eyes or tighten sagging skin under the eyes only by establishing good blood circulation in the eye area, which, naturally, will have a positive effect on vision. To restore normal blood circulation in the eye area, restoring the energy and health of the largest muscle located here, the orbicularis oculi muscle, is crucial. This muscle can be distinguished as separate muscles of the upper eyelid, muscles of the lower eyelid and the annular muscle, as well as several small internal muscles. Highest value for blood supply, and therefore for vision, and to get rid of wrinkles around the eyes or tighten the skin under the eyes, it has the annular muscle of the eye. We will train the annular muscle at the same time as training the eyelid muscles.
To prepare and perform the exercises you need: a mirror, attention and careful monitoring of the progress of the workout, as well as clean eyes and hands and, of course, the desire to achieve your goal. To learn how to perform the exercises correctly, without the risk of harming yourself, you will need 20-30 minutes. Performing the exercises in the future will take no more than a minute or a minute and a half using audio support each.
What these exercises can help you do:
- opportunities to prevent or remove wrinkles around the eyes, restore smoothness to sagging skin under the eyes;
- improving vision and eye health.
The causes of wrinkles around the eyes and sagging skin under the eyes, ways to prevent such wrinkles and all the exercises useful for eliminating them are described in the article “How to get rid of crow’s feet and wrinkles under the eyes.”
The exercises are done practically in an isometric form: strengthening the annular muscle of the eye should occur without stretching the skin.
The orbicularis oculi muscle is attached to the bone of the orbit and is woven into the skin of the eye area. Approaching the nose, the muscle narrows, and the annular muscle reaches its greatest width at the bottom and at the outer edge of the eye.
By straining, the muscle reduces the diameter of its ring, and the skin associated with it also rushes towards the center of the eye. The contraction of the muscle occurs mainly due to the formation of folds of skin at the outer edge of the eye. The right and left circular muscles can tense separately. Look at the photo to see how the annular muscle of the eye is located.
Weakening of the muscle primarily affects the formation of permanent wrinkles at the outer edges of the eyes and sagging skin under the eyes.
If you squint often, then over time the “crow’s feet” at the outer corners of the eyes become permanent and more and more pronounced. If you try to never use the annular muscle, the muscle will weaken and slide down, and the skin associated with it will create the notorious “paws” and folds of thin skin under the eyes.
Regular training of the annular muscle without stretching the skin will make it stronger, increase the elasticity of the skin around the eyes and prevent or remove wrinkles around the eyes, tighten the skin under the eyes. Training will support normal local blood circulation, and, therefore, will have a positive effect on the quality of vision. By learning to control this muscle, you can easily remove residual muscle tension and freely use the muscle without fear of getting premature wrinkles around the eyes.
Exercise 1.
Preparing for the exercise.
Imagine where the orbicularis oculi muscle is located under your skin.
Use a mirror. Lift your lower eyelids up. The mirror will show you that you are squinting as if from the bright sun (bottom left photo).
Place your middle and index fingers on the edges of the eye socket (bottom right photo). The middle fingers should lightly press the skin at the edge of the eye socket with their pads, and the index fingers should be pressed against the middle fingers and also lightly press the pads on the skin next to the edge, although the index fingers may not be used at all. The remaining fingers can be curled, as in the photo, or raised up, if that is more convenient for you.
Lift your lower eyelids up again. To prevent your fingers from moving along with the skin, move them even closer to the eyeball, but do not touch it.
Try to lift your lower eyelids as high as possible. Feel the tension in the annular muscle. The more it tries to contract, the harder your fingers should press on the skin. The fingers should apply enough pressure so that the skin (and the fingers along with it) does not move horizontally towards the nose.
It is obvious that when the lower eyelids forcefully move upward, the upper eyelids will also move down slightly.
Remembering to carefully monitor what is happening with the help of a mirror, repeat this technique several times to adapt to the correct and confident execution of the exercise, helping the contraction of the annular muscle mentally (more mental help is required for the weaker, right or left muscle), and at the same time inhale. As you exhale, relax the muscle, moving your fingers slightly away from the skin. Feel the warmth of relaxation spread across your skin from your eyes to your ears.
Rest a little and do this again several times, now also paying attention to the fact that during the exercise the eyebrows should not move, the nose wrinkles or the upper lip rise: not a single muscle of the face, except the annular eye, should tense during the exercise. Perhaps it would be convenient for you to open your mouth slightly during the exercise.
Exercise.
While looking at yourself in the mirror, place your fingers on the edge of the eye socket. The fingers lie softly and only press slightly inward.
Remember that this is the main exercise to improve local blood circulation and get rid of wrinkles around the eyes. You should try to raise the lower eyelids as high as possible, but your fingers should press down on the skin at the edge of the eye socket so that the skin underneath cannot move.
Helping mentally, especially the weaker eyelid, as if lifting it with your hands, while inhaling, increase the strength of raising the lower eyelids to the limit. Hold the tension for 6 seconds, and then relax your eyelids at the same time as you exhale, moving your fingers away from your eyes.
You must learn to feel well not only the tension, but also the relaxation of the annular muscle of the eye: try after each approach to feel the warmth and relaxation that spreads from the eyes to the periphery of the face, like a wave from a pebble thrown into water.
During the exercises, watch carefully: all other facial muscles should remain relaxed. Perhaps, due to the peculiarities of your habitual facial expressions, at the same time as your eyelids, your eyebrows may try to rise or shift, your nose will wrinkle, your upper lip or the corners of your lips will rise.
It is convenient to practice regularly with audio accompaniment. “Audio Support: Exercise 1 for the Orbicularis Oculi Muscle” is designed for such an activity.
Exercise 2.
Reinhold Benz's Facebuilding includes another exercise for the orbicularis oculi muscle, which, according to Benz, is more effective in preventing wrinkles and tightening the skin under the eyes. In this case, the tension of the annular muscle is achieved due to the pressure of the upper eyelid on the lower. This exercise is convenient to perform when Exercise 1 is done easily and confidently, since the eyes will be closed and control of the face can be exercised only by kinesthetic sensations.
Preparing for the exercise.
Preparation consists of mastering the correct pressure of the upper eyelid on the lower eyelid, as well as controlling the immobility of the remaining facial muscles with the eyes closed.
Smoothly close your eyes around the eyeball. Start pressing your upper eyelid onto your lower eyelid. Feel that this pressure can be very diverse. Learn to press with the upper eyelid with equal force along its entire length. You also need to learn to press from top to bottom, on the lower eyelid, and not on the eye: the eyeball should not feel it at the strongest pressure.
Close and open your eyes until you can correctly press your upper eyelid down along its entire length with as much force as possible. At the same time, learn to control with your eyes closed that your eyebrows do not try to fall along with your eyelids, and that the muscles of your cheeks and lips remain motionless.
Exercise.
Place your fingers on the edge of the eye socket in the same way as in exercise 1. Close your eyes. Press the skin at the edge of the eye socket with your fingers, increasing the pressure of your fingers as you increase downward pressure from the upper eyelid. There should be no movement of these fingers or the skin underneath them.
To make the pressure on the upper eyelid stronger, do this at the same time as you inhale. Feel the strong tension in the muscles and thin skin under your eyes. Count down 6 seconds. During tension, observe the immobility and relaxation of the remaining facial muscles.
As you exhale, move your fingers away from your skin and observe the warmth of relaxation spreading across your cheeks. It is not necessary to open your eyes before the next repetition; it is enough just to completely relax your eyelids.
Repeat the exercise 4-5 more times with breaks of 2-3 seconds between tensions.
Perhaps it would be convenient for you to study with audio accompaniment. “Audio Support: Exercise 2 for the Orbicularis Oculi Muscle” is designed for such an activity.
About the regularity of training.
To reduce wrinkles or get rid of wrinkles around the eyes, tighten the thin skin under the eyes, it is advisable to train 4-5 times a week, using both exercises. To remove wrinkles around the eyes, you need to gradually, over 2-4 weeks, increase the number of repetitions of tension to 10-12. If they only bother loose skin and wrinkles under the eyes, use exercise 2. With such regularity, a visible effect can be achieved after 2-3 months of training.
To maintain vision and normal blood circulation in the eye area, it is enough to train once a week or more often, but reducing the number of repetitions of tension to one or two. Exercise 1 is more suitable for this purpose.
Training the annular muscle will give you the ability to easily express emotions and use it for expressive facial expressions without the fear of getting wrinkles, as your skin will become more elastic.
