Today’s topic is all about jawline and how to get a sharp jawline. If you are meeting someone for the first time, the first thing that comes to his/her notice is the face, in which the jawline plays one of the most important parts.
When the new generation is spending so much time in gyms and maintaining fitness, they should also consider spending some time on improving their facial structure. The jawline plays an important part in maintaining the facial structure.
Causes of fat in the face
1. Genetics
Like the hair, skin tone, and facial expressions which are inherited from your parents, the facial structure is also inherited genetically. Some possess a V jawline and some have a flat jawline depending on their genetics. Some acquire bloating or water retention capacity from their parents. This leads to the appearance of a fat face or bloated face.
2. Medications
People who have regular consumption of steroids or strong antibiotics for curing diseases can face the issue of a bloated face.
3. Lack of Physical activity
When there are no physical activities related to your face muscles, the muscles tend to gain fat. As a result, your face becomes fat in structure.
4. Overweight
When the fat percentage in your body goes up, the fat percentage of your face goes up simultaneously. Overweight is always bad for your health as well as for your appearance.
5. Too much alcohol
Consumption of too much alcohol, beer, or wine leads to bloating of your face. Your face loses the sharp jawline and tends to have a round-shaped appearance.
6. Lack of sleep
If you are experiencing sleep issues or having no sleep at all, there is an increase in cortisol ( a stress hormone) which increases your weight and stores fat. If you are not sleeping your face will gain fat and look bulky. If you are experiencing sleep problems you should read our article for ways to get sleep.
7. Dehydration
When you are not drinking enough water required by your body, the body tends to retain water. As a result, the blood vessels in your body enlarge resulting in a bloated face.
8. Diet
Diet plays an important part in enhancing your face. Carbohydrates are really good but refined carbohydrates like pizzas, burgers, pasta, fries, and many more are not at all good. Also, avoid extra sugar and salt to prevent bloating of your face.
Chewing gum improves jawline – The biggest myth
People still believe that chewing a lot of gum every day improves your jawline and makes it sharp. This is absolutely wrong and a myth. You need to understand one thing that there is a joint named Temporomandibular which connects your jaw and skull just like any other joints. If you are chewing too much chewing gum this joint becomes weak. So avoid excessive chewing gum as it has no effects on your jawline.
How to get a perfect jawline within 7-8days
These are the simple ways that you should follow every day to get a sharp jawline. Within 7-8 days you will find noticeable changes in your jawline if you follow these steps regularly.
1. Sleep well
You have to have a sound sleep for about 7-8 hours every day. Everyone claims to sleep for about 7 hours but the only difference is that you need deep sleep for that many hours. Due to sound sleep, the stress hormone remains at rest, as a result, no blotting will be seen on your face.
