carole maggioOnly in Boston would you combine driving your car and a face lift. That’s he growing trend of those who are trying to turn back the hands of time without surgery by doing “Facercise” in their cars and homes. Scrunching eye brows, doing nose lifts and power lip puckers are but a few of the exercises that one can follow along on their CD or DVD.

Carole Maggio, CEO of Facercise joins Craig to discuss her synergistic series of facial exercises and how they can keep you looking young longer without surgery.

“I call it the anti-Botox boom,” says Carole Maggio, creator of the facercise program and a internationally known skin and facial consultant who runs the Carole Maggio Spa in Redondo Beach, California. “Botox deadens the muscles to relax them and erase wrinkles but Facercise does the opposite. It strengthens muscles to shape fuller lips, lifted eyebrows, wide open and vibrant eyes, a shorter nose as well as a chiseled chin, neck and jaw line.” And they do it in their cars as well. “It’s a great way improve your appearance and feel like your commute was productive.”

Maggio says “facercising” is more effective than cosmetic surgery and many facial problem areas can be toned with simple movements.

For example, raising your eyebrows up and down at least five times is actually an “eye enhancing exercise” that strains your muscles and makes your eyes bigger in no time.

For a plump pout, Maggio suggests flexing the corners of your mouth, “like you’re sucking on a lemon” and pushing on the corners with your thumb and index finger until you “feel the burn.”

For a perky schnoz, “nose pumps,” where you pinch your nose with one hand and pull your upper lip with the other hand should do the trick.

Although driving while facercising seems odd, Maggio argues, “You exercise your nose while most people are picking theirs. At least you can be constructive during your drive.”

The Facercise trend is not just in California. Maggio says that the largest customers of her DVD and CD are in Japan. “Japanese women are real believers in using non-invasive means to look better,” she said. “There is no down
side to trying the exercises before you consider other more drastic measures to look and feel better. It also costs a fraction of what more invasive measures would.”

“Just as a body builder can use weight training to isolate and develop certain muscles in his or her body, a particular facial feature can be developed and accentuated by performing a specific facial exercise. After five days of Facercise, men and women see a younger face smiling back at them in the mirror.”

Just as Botox and other injectibles are becoming a growing choice for many women, many others cannot afford the treatments let alone a full face lift. But they can spend time in their cars, trying to look younger one mile at a time.

Do you want to try it for yourself? Maggio offers instructional CD’s and DVD’s at www.facercise.com.

About Carole:

Carole Maggio, considered “the world’s foremost authority on facial exercises” has devised a series of synergistic exercises which she has successfully taught to hundreds of thousands of clients world wide. In 1995, as an answer to thousands of questions regarding her techniques, she authored the best selling book, FACERCISE®. This book continues to be a top selling item in bookstores worldwide. She has also produced two DVDs and two CDs to demonstrate her FACERCISE® techniques.

Ms. Maggio has a legion of supporters among the medical professionals worldwide. She has had numerous testimonials from many plastic surgeons who support her belief that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Her credo is to address the causes of facial aging, not to just treat the symptoms.

Ms. Maggio long ago discovered that through proper exercises, one can strengthen and develop the 57 face and neck muscles so that the face can actually be restructured to achieve an improved, younger look. Just as a body builder can develop particular muscles in his or her body, a particular facial feature can be developed and accentuated by performing a specific facial exercise. In just a short period of time there will be a noticeable difference in the contour and tone of the face.

Ms. Maggio has appeared on numerous television shows including Dateline, Geraldo, New York Today, CNBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, BBC, HSN, QVC, The Learning Channel, Discovery, Good Morning Arizona and The Food Network among others.

Ms. Maggio’s techniques have been voted as one of the top 100 beauty products in the world by Harpers & Queen magazine. As quoted in the New York Times, Ms. Maggio has succeeded “in bending time’s arrow the other way.”

About Carole Maggio Day Spa:

Carole Maggio Day Spa is a cosmetic treatment spa specializing in non-invasive alternatives to plastic surgery. Ms. Maggio is an experienced facial therapist and esthetician whose renowned facial exercise techniques for men and women have earned popularity in 17 countries. These methods, which Ms. Maggio has dubbed Facercise, focus on strengthening facial muscles for a lasting improvement in appearance. The spa also offers body sculpting/cellulite reduction, microdermabrasion, and advanced facials.

Facercise works to lift and tone the 57 muscles in the face and neck. As a result of frequent and intensive yet brief (approximately ten minutes a session) facial workouts, signs of aging such as skin slackness and drooping mouth can be visibly reduced within five days and prevented from returning as long as exercises are kept up. Clients unhappy with an individual facial feature can work with professionals to develop individualized Facercise regimens aimed at restructuring the problem from the underlying muscles outward.

Carole Maggio’s signature CM Body Sculpting involves sweeping massage-like strokes designed to increase circulation and break up fat deposits. The treatment is applicable to the buttocks, lower back, arms, and legs for firming and toning effects. On average, recipients lose eight to 14 inches after ten 30-minute, twice-weekly treatments. Results are thoroughly documented during the regimen.

Licensed estheticians are also on hand to perform results-oriented skincare services. Guests can take advantage of a series of DiamondTone Microdermabrasion treatments in order to smooth skin tone and address irregularities, e.g. acne scarring and sun damage. Other available skin-rejuvenating treatments include anti-aging facial massage, antioxidant facial, and results-oriented tightening and toning facials.

No Lipo Lipo -The Smarter Alternative to Liposuction or Smartlipo

No Lipo Lipo on KTLA:

It is possible to lose weight and take inches off without dangerous surgery, pills, or exercise. It is a miracle technique called No Lipo Lipo. This technique smoothes and tightens the skin, lifts the buttocks, flattens the stomach and reduces inches on the thighs. It also dramatically improves circulation in addition to minimizing the appearance of cellulite.

No Lipo Lipo mimics liposuction at a fraction of the cost, and is a safer alternative to Liposuction and Smartlipo. Average inches lost after 10 treatments is 12-16 inches. The change is dramatic. Go to the results page to see more before and after pictures. You won’t believe your eyes. KTLA Channel 5 TV recently did a segment on the FACERCISE regimen and also ran a brief clip mentioning my NO LIPO LIPO technique . The response was overwhelming. KTLA came back and did another segment on just the NO LIPO LIPO technique and the phones have not stopped ringing since. To view the KTLA segment on NO LIPO LIPO, watch below to see for yourself the amazing before and after examples of what this revolutionary technique can accomplish. As I like to say, “seeing is believing.” Licensing for either or both of these wonderful treatments is available.

Nutrients and Face Exercise Reduce Wrinkles

Facercise Results

If you take vitamins and make efforts to eat right, you will have more nutrients coursing through your body than those people who eat fast food and avoid leafy greens and trips to the farmer’s market. However, if you are doing your best to assimilate healthy nutrients into your system, you need to take the one, final step to ensuring they get to your facial tissue. This step involves facial exercises.

We all know people who have grey, aging skin. These people are perfect examples of faces that are not getting “fed” with the nutrients they need to look young and alive. Facial exercise promotes circulation, bringing a fresh supply of blood and oxygen to the facial tissue. However, you are also bringing powerful nutrients right to your muscles and skin when you exercise your face.

The heightened circulation that is a result of face wrinkle exercises helps detoxify the entire area. Everyone these days is constantly bombarded with all kinds of toxins, including exhaust, cigarette smoke, free radicals and plain old dirty air. When you exercise your face, you can keep these toxins moving out of your body, rather than lodging in your pores and fine lines.

You may have never heard of your orbicularis oculi or your zygomaticus, but we guarantee you that the state of these muscles is affecting how young and attractive you perceive yourself to be. The eye muscles and the cheek muscles are among the 57 muscles in the face and neck that, when unattended, can sag, droop, drag and fold. However, our system of face toning exercises, Facercise, can stop the dropping and start the lifting!

By compressing the muscles around the mouth, you can prevent lines from forming around the lip area. You can also use another exercise, using many of the same muscles, to fill out thinning lips. The mouth is so expressive, but often it is one of the first facial features to show the signs of aging. Proper exercise can reverse this process and enhance your appearance.

Face lifting by exercise is not some esoteric ritual that offers results that are “too good to be true.” In fact, thousands of people all over the world have experienced success in lifting and firming their faces with a program called Facercise. Carole Maggio, the creator of Facercise, has been interviewed and featured on Dateline, Geraldo, New York Today, CNBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, BBC, HSN, QVC–all because of the popularity of this exercise system.

How do you know Facercise works? Because it makes sense, it doesn’t offer “magic” results, and it depends on your own commitment and hard work. All that we do promise is that these exercises are the answer to sagging, aging faces. Men and women everywhere have used these exercises to create serious changes in their appearances.

You can order our products by exploring our store or by calling (800) 597-3555 or (310) 316-1818. We are also available by [email protected]. The sooner you start, the sooner you can notice improvements: many of our most enthusiastic clients have seen changes in less than a week.

Face Lifting Exercises are a Better Solution

Befere and after Facial Exercise Results

Face lifting exercises are superior to surgical face lifts for a number of reasons. Surgery is costly and painful – plus, it can be dangerous and only provides topical restructuring. This is why people have face lift after face lift trying to keep their faces taut and lifted.

With facial exercises, you can lift your face while strengthening the underlying structure. You can tone your chin, firm your cheeks, and raise your eyelids and eyebrows, as well as a host of other improvements. This builds the foundation for a more youthful appearance for the rest of your life, rather than compromising the integrity of your muscles and tissue. Plastic surgery can result in having less strength in those facial muscles, which won’t support good looks in the future!

Face Exercises Cost Much Less than Facelifts and Look Much More Natural

Face Exercises Tighten and Lift the face

Many people want to make dramatic improvements to their appearances, but they think they cannot afford to do so. Often, people associate good looks with plastic surgery, expensive spa treatments or rare and costly plant extracts. They think, simply, that the power over their own looks is out of their hands.

The opposite is true. Only you can make the changes necessary to completely lift and restructure your face. Targeted, well-researched face exercises can create dramatic changes in your facial structure, and no one can exercise your face but you.

We Can Teach You to Change Your Face

What makes our program different, and so effective? Well, for one thing, you have to work at changing your face. True, Facercise takes only a few minutes a day, but the change ultimately does depend on your commitment to the program. We don’t pretend that there are magic formulas out there that can erase years from your face with the application of an expensive product.

Here at Facercise, we offer the books and DVDs to teach people everywhere the right face lift exercises to help them vastly improve their appearances. Products cannot reshape a face, but exercise can. Our books and DVDs will show you how to properly work out your facial muscles so that you can start seeing a difference in just five days.

For more information about our products, you can call (800) 597-3555 or (310) 316-1818, e-mail us, or browse Facercise.com. We have a face exercise book for men and women and DVDs for beginner and advanced Facercisers.

We also carry sunblock and creamy face cleansers to help you maintain your youthful appearance. However, we stress that no lotion can do more than take care of your skin. For truly dramatic improvements to your face, you need to simply do your facial exercises every day and enjoy a lifted face for life.

Exercises For Face Muscles

Befere and after facial exercise

Most people think it’s lines and wrinkles that age a face, and so they relentlessly pursue the one face cream or dermabrasion treatment that will make them look years younger. What happens is that they end up with smoother, brighter skin, but they still look their age, with drooping chins and heavy eyelids. It isn’t the fine lines that others first notice, it’s the muscle tone of the face.

There are young people with fine lines around eyes and mouth, and yet they still look young. Their cheeks are firm and rounded, their chins sculpted and their eyes wide and bright. This is because their muscles have not lost form, definition and elasticity yet. The lines go almost unnoticed when people are judging their ages. You can regain your own youthful muscular facial structure by properly exercising and sculpting your facial muscles.

Do Facial Exercises Work

You may have heard about our program, Facercise, as our creator, Carole Maggio, has been seen on television programs around the world. We have also been featured in a host of publications, including The New York Times and Harpers and Queen. However, we know that it’s only natural for you to wonder, “Do facial exercises work?”

Before we answer this, let’s look at the alternatives: lotions and plastic surgery. No matter how expensive a lotion is, it’s only going to work topically. You may be able to minimize fine lines this way, but you’ll never be able to lift a sagging double chin or re-sculpt your cheekbones with a cream. Facelifts, too, only work on the skin, and in fact actually damage your ability to keep your face firm and toned, since tissue is severed and becomes weakened.

Facial exercises (the right facial exercises) however, actually strengthen the muscles in your face. You can actually create beauty from the inside out. It’s not the ultimate “quick fix,” just like you can’t apply a lotion and hope for miracles in an hour. You can, however, begin to see dramatic results in less than one week!

Our face exercise DVDs and book show you how to lift cheeks and chin, diminish puffiness under the eyes, enlarge your eye sockets and raise your eyebrows. You can even tighten up a nose that has grown with age! To order our books and DVDs, or to find out more about our products, contact us at (800) 597-3555 or (310) 316-1818 or by [email protected]

Go to any gym, and you’ll see people who exercise with terrific bodies, but have sagging, old-looking faces. The appearance of their bodies and the appearance of their faces can be decades apart. Why is this? The answer is that when you exercise and firm up a muscle, the skin cannot help but look smoother, since the skin is covering rounded, toned muscles and is not being dragged down by muscles responding to gravity.

It’s a simple concept, but one for which people have waited a long time: with proper facial exercise, the entire face can be toned, lifted and invigorated. Facial exercise is natural, offers fast, dramatic results, and everyone can do it. The key, however, is in doing the facial exercises properly.

You Can Reshape Your Face, Quickly
Carole Maggio has developed a series of facial exercises that can produce the same kind of dramatic results that body exercises can! Instead of undergoing painful and costly plastic surgery or buying expensive creams that can only affect the surface of the skin, you can actually reshape your face. Facercise is more than cosmetic; exercising your facial muscles actually improves tone and circulation, making your facial tissue healthier.

Ms. Maggio has been quoted in the New York Times, and her program is called one of the “top 100 beauty products in the world,” by the magazine Harpers and Queen. She has been featured on numerous top television programs, including Geraldo, Dateline and on the Learning Channel. You can place your order by calling (800) 597-3555 or (310) 316-1818 or by [email protected]
