This exercise is one of the best exercises for reducing a double chin. For this, you need to lie flat on your back, bend your knees and place your feet flat on the floor. Keep your hands besides your body with your palms touching the floor. Look straight up towards the ceiling. Now, lift your head up and bend it towards your chest. Wait for a second and go back to the first position.

Repeat this activity at least 25 times a day for best results.

2. Rotate Your Head

Simple yet effective, this exercise is also one of the best and easiest ways for reducing a double chin. For this, you need to sit in a straight position with your legs folded. Keep your back straight and place your hands on your thighs. Now, rotate your head slowly in a clockwise direction. Make sure that you stretch your head as much as you can, especially when you look upwards. For better results, you must practice this exercise in a clockwise as well as an anticlockwise manner.

Repeat this activity at least two times a day, 10 reps each.

3. Ceiling Kiss

To practice this exercise, you must sit upright on the floor with your legs folded and your hands placed on your thighs. Look straight in the front. Now, tilt your head upwards, toward the ceiling, and stretch it as much as you can. Remember that you should not stretch your body more than its capacity as it might cause pain and discomfort.

Once you have stretched your head in the upward direction, move your cheeks in such a manner as if you are trying to kiss the ceiling. The more intensely you try to kiss the ceiling, the more effective the exercise will be. Tighten your cheekbones and your chin as much as you can. Once you get there, freeze for 10 seconds and release.

Repeat this activity for at least 10 times a day.

4. Platysma Muscle Exercise

This might sound very complex by its name. However, the platysma muscle exercise is quite an easy one. For this, you need to sit or stand upright on the floor. Keep your hands in a relaxed position. Now, you need to pull your lips backwards and open your mouth. Make sure that your mouth is slightly opened. This activity will widen your jaw and stretch its muscles. Use your teeth as support for your lips and keep your lips pressed against them. Stretch as much as you can. Now, move your lower jaw upwards and downwards.

Repeat this activity at least 10 times a day for best results.

5. Slap Your Chin

Well, this is not what you think. You don’t have to slap yourself literally. In this activity, you need to calmly and slowly tap your lower jaw with the backside of your hand. While practising this exercise, you need to make sure that you do not slap your chin too harshly or too softly. There should be a balance.

Repeat this activity at least 10 times a day.
