How to Tone Your Neck and Reduce a Double Chin

Check out the following exercises and tips to help naturally reduce a double chin and tone your neck.

A double chin is the accumulation of fat underneath the chin, or the flaccid skin left behind when someone gains and loses weight continuously.

Most consider it to be an aesthetic problem that can sometimes lower one’s self-esteem.

But it’s also important to keep in mind that its presence is a cardiometabolic risk factor not to be ignored.

That’s why it’s fundamental to change your lifestyle and adopt healthy habits that will keep your weight under control.

Exercises and Tips to Reduce a Double Chin and Tone Your Neck

Both the face and neck are composed of many muscles that provide firmness to the skin that covers them.

These prevent the early appearance of wrinkles and reduce the buildup of fat in the chin area.

However, most people ignore the fact that you must exercise them consistently just like other muscles to keep them strong.

And the skin needs additional nutrition to stay elastic, firm and toned.

With this in mind, we’ve put together a simple routine and two key recommendations so you’ll be able to achieve this goal.

Hydration to Tone Your Neck

To tone your neck, it’s fundamental to increase your water intake and use moisturizing products.

Drink 6 to 8 glasses of water a day to prevent dehydration and improve oxygenation of the skin all over your body.

Applying a moisturizing cream with firming properties reduces flaccid skin in the neck area and helps reduce double chin.

It’s also good to eat more fruits and vegetables, as they’re antioxidants that help improve the skin.

Wheat Germ Oil Massages

This product has a high concentration of vitamin E, a nutrient that hydrates, tones and firms up the dermis.
