Change yourself: face building from Galina Dubinina

Gymnastics for the face of Galina Dubinina - Galina Dubinina's school of youth

One day I was lucky to come across a video on the Internet where a nice woman showed exercises to help tighten her face. This woman turned out to be Galina Dubinina, who created the face forming program - a system of exercises that help the facial muscles stay toned.

In general, facial exercises have been around for a long time. As they say, there are no accidents - after thirty, Galina herself noticed the appearance of wrinkles and decided to fight skin aging. She was not satisfied with the temporary effect of cosmetic procedures and, in search of a solution to the problem, the woman found information about aerobics for the face from American cosmetologist Carol Maggio. The results from this exercise are compared with the results from a surgical lift. But she also based her aerobics on exercises from face-building, invented by the German plastic surgeon Reinhold Benz back in the thirties of the twentieth century.

Collecting bit by bit existing information on this topic and trying all the techniques on herself, Galina began to select exercises for herself that gave the fastest effect, gradually they all formed into a whole program. This is how Galina Dubinina’s facial gymnastics appeared. This amazing woman decided to share her knowledge to help other people, and gathered a group that began classes according to the program developed by Galina. The changes that women noticed in themselves were visible to everyone:

1. Facial skin noticeably tightened and became elastic
2. The pores were cleansed, the skin became “blooming”
3. Skin retains moisture better
4. All this significantly affected the mood of women and their self-confidence

Galina Dubinina developed her face building system based on Carol Maggio’s method

Thus, in 2004, the “Galina Dubinina School of Youth” began its work. But the woman did not stop her fight against aging. After turning forty, many people begin to understand that age is slowly taking its toll - either the joints are “naughty”, or sciatica sets in or the back hurts. And Galina noticed similar “first signs” in herself, and since she taught physical therapy, Pilates, fitness yoga, joint gymnastics, spinal stretching for many years, she again chose the most effective exercises from all these known methods and created the Senior's program, which helps to get rid of from problems with joints and spine.

At fifty years old, Galina Dubinina looks amazing thanks to her facial gymnastics, you can see this by watching the video - in my opinion, it’s hard to come up with a better advertisement. In addition, results can be seen after just a couple of weeks of training, and this is confirmed by numerous enthusiastic reviews from people who have tried Galina Dubinina’s face lifting.

Exercises for the upper eyelid:

Using your index finger and thumb, grab the skin where the eyebrows are located. At the same time, we place the index finger and the other three attached to it on the superciliary arches, as if fixing the position. Now try to raise your eyebrows as high as possible and open your eyes wide. Next we work with the upper eyelid: close it and open it wide. Ten times at a fast pace and ten at a slow pace - about 4 seconds each to fix the open and closed positions.

After 25 years, the first signs become noticeable that time is unkind to a woman’s face. The appearance of facial wrinkles, changes in elasticity and tone and other manifestations greatly spoil the mood and appearance. Over the years, less and less collagen is produced, muscles lose tone, and sagging occurs. The result is deplorable - “shrunken” facial features and a reluctance to look in the mirror.

But these problems can be effectively dealt with and age does not matter. In addition to proper skin care at home and salon procedures, there is another excellent remedy - facial gymnastics, the so-called face forming. After all, since there are muscles in the face, it means that they can be trained in the same way as the whole body.

American Carol Maggio is considered one of the pioneers in the formation of a beautiful oval face and toned skin.

She managed to prove that a set of fairly simple but effective exercises helps to achieve excellent results.

It is quite natural that this gymnastics (facelift) appeared in our country. The exercises are adapted, modified and supplemented by Galina Dubinina, our compatriot and founder of the “School of Youth”.

When and how to exercise

If you are determined to maintain youthful skin, then nothing can stop you. Many women are willing to go under the knife or get Botox injections to reverse the visible signs of aging. But if you do gymnastics, you can make your face look younger without extra financial costs and is absolutely safe for your health. Unfortunately, paying a lot of attention to the muscles of the body and regularly working out in the gym, we forget that the muscles of the face also need training.

The first minor age-related changes can appear even at 25 years old, and after 40 the skin begins to sag, more and more wrinkles appear. But just as physical exercise helps keep the body elastic, facial gymnastics also slows down its aging. We haven’t yet come up with a cream that would allow us to get strong abs without making any effort, so why are we sure that cosmetic products can smooth out wrinkles? It's never too late to start, and at a fairly mature age you can significantly smooth out the marks that time leaves on our faces.

By doing the exercises regularly, you will notice changes within a couple of weeks.

Even if you are young and think that it is too early to worry about problems associated with age-related changes, you should think about the fact that by the age of thirty our skin begins to wither, the number of working capillaries gradually decreases, and this does not have the greatest effect on our appearance. in the best possible way. Without gymnastics, the muscles become flat, lose volume and elasticity, and accordingly the skin sags. Galina herself recommends starting training as early as possible.

If you do just 10 minutes a day of this kind of fitness for your face, you will notice how it looks younger, the synthesis of collagen and elastin is restored, the skin becomes more elastic, clean, smooth, blood microcirculation improves, moisture is better retained, the oval of the face becomes clearer, and small wrinkles completely disappear. This effectiveness of Galina Dubinina’s face forming is confirmed by reviews of cosmetologists who also practice this technique.

Undoubtedly, the result depends on the regularity and correctness of the exercises. To do this, it’s worth looking for all the videos of facial gymnastics, in which Galina Dubinina explains in detail and shows how and what to do, and explains what mistakes can be made. And having learned and memorized your complex, you can practice anywhere - some exercises can even be done in transport. If you train your facial muscles at home, it is advisable to wash off your makeup before doing so, then rub your ears - this will greatly activate the work of all organs of the body. It is best to practice in front of a mirror to ensure you do the exercises correctly. Over time, gymnastics will not take as many minutes as at the beginning, and you can do it whenever it’s convenient for you - even while working in the kitchen, lying in the bathroom or reading a magazine.

The whole complex will take you no more than 15 minutes of time

In adulthood, Galina Dubinina's classes are aimed at restoring smoothness and radiance to the skin by training the muscles of the face and neck. The stages of facelift include:

1. Preparation. A light self-massage is performed, aimed at warming up the muscles and preparing them for further exercise. It is not recommended to skip this stage, as it increases the effectiveness of the exercises and accelerates the onset of the desired effect.
2. Main complex.
3. The final stage. The facelift is completed by complete relaxation of the facial muscles. This process is necessary to consolidate the results of gymnastics and acquire the desired elasticity in the muscles.

At the age of 40, a woman is recommended to pay attention to the following points:

• Smoothing wrinkles in the forehead area. To do this, place the fingers of both hands above your eyebrows and frown.
• Formation of the oval face. The easiest way to restore the shape of your face and chin is to perform circular movements with your lower jaw.
• Elimination of defects in the lip area. To do this, pull the corners inward, while simultaneously trying to lift them up.

Gymnastics for the face of Galina Dubinina - nasolabial folds, eyes, double chin

The first thing that usually begins to spoil our appearance is the appearance of nasolabial folds, a double chin and wrinkles around the eyes. I want to offer you some exercises for these zones. And you, having watched all of Galina Dubinina’s videos on face forming, which are freely available, will be able to choose the complex that is suitable for solving problems with your problem areas.

1. You can noticeably smooth out nasolabial folds by performing the following exercise. Place your thumbs on your teeth, smoothing out the nasolabial folds, and press them with your upper lip. We smooth out the wrinkles near the corners of the lips by placing the thumb of the right hand on the lower canine on the left side and pressing it with the lower lip. We change sides. We perform until the count of 8 and back.
2. Training the orbicularis muscle will smooth out the clearly noticeable border between the eyes and cheeks. To do this, you need to sit comfortably, relax your forehead, neck and start blinking frequently, as if a butterfly is flapping its wings quickly. By complicating the exercise a little, we will strengthen the lower eyelid: open your mouth in the shape of the letter “o”, so that the upper lip covers the teeth and is behind them - this way we will not allow the formation of a nasolabial fold. Raise your eyes up and blink frequently again. Count to 20 and then count back, rest and repeat again.
3. You can get rid of bruises under the eyes and tighten your cheeks by pulling the lower eyelid up as much as possible. To prevent crow's feet from forming, place your index or middle fingers on the outer corners of your eyes. We count to 10 and back. Repeat the same, but with your eyes closed.
4. It will relieve fatigue, help improve vision, adding shine to the eyes, the usual “shooting” of the eyes - first to the sides, then up and down. Then we “draw” a figure eight, “shoot” diagonally, make wide circles with our eyes - everything in both directions. We finish by training the rectus and oblique muscles: we place our finger in front of us at a distance of 30 cm, without taking our eyes off it, slowly bring it to the bridge of the nose and return it back. We look at the finger, and then, as if through it, at ourselves in the mirror. We repeat each exercise 8 times.
5. To get rid of a double chin, turn your lips inward, smile and count. Afterwards, stick out your tongue and press on your upper lip without straining your facial muscles. Covering your upper lip with your lower, throw your head back and hold for a count of 16.

Exercises for different areas of the face

A set of facial exercises affects all muscle groups. A complete course on facelifting from Galina Dubinina at home includes manipulations affecting separately the upper part of the face (forehead), middle area (eyes, folds of the nose), lower area (lips, chin, neck and décolleté).

Before performing facial gymnastics, Galina Dubinina is required to perform preparatory procedures:

• cleanse your face of decorative cosmetics (as a recommendation);
• expose the skin to contrast;
• massage the earlobes to stimulate blood circulation;
• oils and creams are not recommended, but their use is not prohibited, except for women with oily skin.

The author of the technique gives general recommendations on how to correctly perform the complex to obtain a positive result:

• It is better to perform the exercises on a reverse slow or forward fast count from 1 to 8;
• If the technique involves acupressure, then the count is reduced to 4;
• When performing each exercise, you must clearly feel the muscle that is being affected at the moment.
• The break between approaches is at least a minute;
• Since when performing some manipulations the woman’s face will be disfigured with grimaces, it is advisable to perform gymnastics alone so as not to be embarrassed;
• If the procedure is carried out regularly, it is recommended to increase the load (number of repetitions) every two weeks so that there is no addiction and the muscles experience full load.

Exercises for the neck and décolleté

Performing exercises from Galina Dubinina’s gymnastics complex for the décolleté and chin area allows you to achieve increased muscle tone and prevent a decrease in the firmness and elasticity of the skin. They include the following manipulations:
