To get a better jawline, several effective methods include doing targeted jawline exercises, practicing proper oral posture (mewing), chewing sugar-free gum in moderation, maintaining good hydration and a clean diet, and improving your posture. Exercises like chin lifts, neck curl-ups, jaw clenching, and vowel sounds can tone and define the muscles around the jaw. Facial massage and cold therapy can also help reduce puffiness and improve skin tightness around the jawline. Additionally, avoiding excess salt and processed foods, and staying hydrated help keep the face lean. For more advanced or quicker results, some consider dental treatments such as braces, fillers, or Botox under professional guidance.

Other Techniques
