Do facial exercises improve your appearance?
Yes and No. Yes if facial exercises are performed in a proper way. No, because it may increase facial wrinkling and make you look more aged if you are doing the wrong kind of exercise.
Facial exercises that are done for speech fluency also improve your facial aesthetics. It is best to get advice from a speech therapist before initiating any facial exercise program.
Some of these exercises involve contracting muscles against resistance known as isotonic exercises.
Others involved muscle contraction but with no movement known as Isometric & yet, others involved stretching and massaging.
Daily workout at home is usually required often supplemented by weekly sessions with a therapist. Some people may need to perform speech therapy once or twice weekly in the presence of a therapist.

Other simple hacks to avoid having chubby cheeks:
Another reason you can look puffy in the face is your body is holding in too much water. To avoid that you have to watch how much salt and sugar you eat. Fast food, crackers, chips, canned vegetables, and soups shouldn’t be in your diet often.
Instead have some bananas, avocados, oranges, yogurt, spinach, and whole grains. Try to increase your water intake, because when your body doesn’t get enough liquids it feels like it should make some supplies for the future.
Most of these supplies get stored in your cheeks. So get at least 2 liters of water per day to avoid that.
Your face will never look slim and toned if your body doesn’t so try some cardio workout to lose extra fat faster, physical activities like running, walking, cycling & swimming increase your heart rate and speed up your makeover. 20-40 minutes per day should be enough.
If you do cardio at the gym you can also do weights afterward for a stronger effect even if you don’t have a double chin, slouching makes you look as if you do.
So walk with confidence keep your head up, belly in, and your chest out imagine you have something placed on your upper chest that you don’t want to drop.
Wear black, it’s the color most people associate with confidence and professionalism. Most importantly it creates a slimming illusion and makes your face look more angular.
