Step 1
Reduce calories. Cutting your intake by 500 calories a day can help you achieve an average weight loss of one pound a week. When you lose weight, you’ll get rid of fat in all areas of your body, including the face.
Step 2
Drink eight to 10 glasses of water each day. According to Good Housekeeping, not drinking enough water causes water retention and can add weight to your face. Avoid diuretics, such as alcohol and caffeine.
Step 3
Follow a reduced-sodium diet. Too much salt can lead to facial bloating. Foods that are high in salt include processed meals, lunch meat, chips, fast food and canned vegetables.
Step 4
Exercise daily. A mix of cardio and strength training can help you burn more calories to get rid of excess fat. Do 30 minutes of aerobic activity a day, along with 30 minutes of strength training at least three days a week. Dumbbells, leg presses, pull-up bars and resistance bands can all be used to build lean muscle mass.
Step 5
Make different facial expressions to tone the face. As reported in "Time" magazine, facial yoga is a form of exercise intended to tighten and tone various muscles in the face. For example, the Smiling Fish Face is performed by sucking in your cheeks and puckering your lips simultaneously. Hold the expression for 60 seconds.
