How to exercise to improve and correct a receding chin
Chin recession is primarily caused by skeletal retrusion. Daily exercises such as adjusting breathing patterns, stretching neck muscles, and localized massage may help to some extent, but the effectiveness of these methods is limited. If chin recession affects facial appearance, it is recommended to visit a hospital for aesthetic medical treatments such as hyaluronic acid fillers, autologous fat grafting, chin implants, orthodontic treatment, or orthognathic surgery to improve the condition.
