Someone Help Me With These Dreaded FESTOONS and MALAR BAGS! Does FACE EXERCISE Help? 

I am 56 years old and noticed excessive puffiness on my cheek bones. Actually they were so noticeable my husband asked me why my cheek bones were swelling. I would touch them and notice they were puffy with fluid inside. I was excited to see your video. So I started the Marlar Bag exercise.. and wouldn't you know it.. I started to notice a significant difference. I will continue the exercises. thank you so much!

I have awful malar bags caused by my CPAP machine. At first it appeared that they were water bags and I was devasted because I had really taken care of my face for so many years. I am now 71 years old and have resigned the fact that nothing is going to help me. I have looked into surgery and they tell me they will not guarantee the result. I will try your exercise and see what happens! Thank you for addressing this problem.

Mine came out of nowhere I’m so annoyed

Wow it really does work from the first session!!. I put a cold pack from the fridge afterwards. Thank you so much, try it peeps!!

I am trying this for my issue little bubble; on one eye outer edge. I'm visualizing it working beautifully! So Glad I found you. Northern, California USA

I just tried the exercise and I literally could feel drainage in the back of my throat immediately following the exercise.

Wow! If I had Malar bags I would be so grateful for this information. I'm glad to know how to strengthen the muscles in the eye area!

Oh my goodness! I just found this and needed it desperately. You would not believe the results I've had just overnight. Thank You.

Please never stop sharing your knowledge! pass it on to others it has helped so many!

My bags have just started to come on my cheek bones. I am concerned but people admire my face saying my high cheekbones is what gives me my good looks. I will definitely give the exercise a go. Thanks for the demonstration.

I had them really bad at 45 so I did have the surgery. it helped but your exercises help more. in fact do wonders~!!

I cnt believe you are above 50,you look like you are in your 30s,i really appreciate n thank you for making these videos.

Thanks for this video PETA! I know it will improve my appearance like your check exercises already have. These exercises do work if you stick with them. I am loving your channel!

Hello there! Raw organic coconut oil is the best thing I have found to use when having to do these kinds of exercises.. The fingers just glide right along without stretching the skin.. And also the coconut oil is said to strengthen the connective tissue of the skin over time.. Great stuff! :)

Limit your salt intake helps too. I have had malar bags my whole life even as a kid . Now worse with age . Doctors reportedly say they are a hard cosmetic fix. However i know lymph massage does help wont erase completely but will help.

I'm going to start these tonight. I've had malar bags since age 4... I saw them in photos of myself!!! I thank God for giving this talent to Peta to share

I was born with mine

Been on a hunt for non-surgical alternatives to festoons for the longest time now. Never heard of this though. Will definitely try this out. A few other tips. Sleep on elevated pillows. Do not sleep with your face on the pillow (back facing the ceiling) as it leads to more fluid accumulation. Also do not drink too much water just before you sleep. Thank you for the video.

Hey. So glad to sub to your channel. I have malar bags thank to my mom. I'm a perfect case for this exercise. I'm a holistic type person so no surgeries for me, I hope this will solve my case. I don't have festoons but a very prominent crescent line on my cheeks which is very annoying. I'm 28 but it makes me look 38. :(

thank you. I will give this a try. I just had a facelift 3 months ago, and the malars are bad. I feel like, why did I bother since these malars are worse. Doctor said give it time, if it isn't better (and we know it won't be), he will inject cortisone. I don't believe that will be the answer either as it will just make the entire face puffier, which might make the malars less obvious. but I don't think that is worth it. I will try these exercises and hope for the best. I would like to see some pictures of people who had success with doing these exercises. you are doing them as prevention. I would like to see actual before and after.

I couldn't believe this! I am almost 70 yrs. old. I have been following your site for at least 3 yrs. About 2 months ago I got a huge white head that popped up under my eye. I have never had any face problems. But because I have been taking special meds for my hair I believe it caused this problem. It would not go away no matter what I did. Finally I did steam it, etc. until several big white heads came out. I spent at least 2 weeks cleaning them out. Finally it went away. However it left a huge bag under my eye as well as a slight bag under the other eye. However when I did this exercise 1 time for 10X & the eye bag almost totally disappeared! The other side went away totally! It was amazing! Though I have did some of your other exercises for under eye bags this one worked the very best! Thank you so much for your wonderful help!

I tried facial acupuncture (after trying so many things) and it worked like a charm after about 5 treatments.

After cataract surgery zi suddenly developed these dreadful things. Never had them before. By the way you are really looking beautiful Peta

Superb exercises. Thanks Peta.

I have been very poorly and run down but mine appeared overnight...I could cry it has aged me ten years and has made me feel even worse...thank you for your invaluable advice...I will definitely try this and let you know the results...🤞🤞🤞...Jane North Wales UK 🇬🇧....

Thanks Peta.

thank you for your videos having fun trying to turn back the hands of time on my face

Thank you for sharing this. This is amazing

I just want to thank you so much for this video!!! I started to get those horrible bagy bits and didn’t know what to do ☹️ I’ve done exercise last night and this morning and it actually works !!! It reduced them so much. I will continue doing them 🤗 Thank you 🙏

Facial acupuncture works wonders for these festoons!

I am 25 years old and have started noticing festoons/malar mounds for the past 2 years. Hope this facial exercise can help me. Thank you.

Thanks pita for ur prompt reply.I wpuld definitely try these exercises n give u the feedback.Love u for whatvu r doing.

I have malar bags and loathe them. Will definitely give this a go! X❤

thank you! I just did this and it worked!

Hi Pita, I've noticed the puffiness under my left eye has gone down also I've been doing my facial exercises and using the Laser Lift. Thank you!

Thank you so much, I'll have to try this.

Great help. Thank you so much.

Every time I see your "before" pictures, it's just amazing how flawless your skin is now. I still have a difficult time with nasal labial folds. Recently I've been out of the loop, as I had a serious pinched nerve in my neck. I've been seeing a chiropractor. Hoping to feel completely back up to par again soon! Peta, I tried to email you, but it bounces back to me. I have no idea why.

This made by festoons worse. I only had it on the right side when I started after two days I have it on both.

Your accent is adorable. I'm going to try these exercises because I've noticed the festoons appearing die to my thyroid. Hopefully it works and I'm doing it right.

You are so lovely, inside and out.

Thanks Peta. I can feel the phlem straight away, so I 'm hoping it will really work.

one must do this every day because then if one dont then the eye baggs will come back again

this looks promising...how mnay times we have to repeat the set? Thanks for the video

You seriously look great with this mane on your forehead!👦

Oh yeah ! Can we add this exercise to our routine ? Just after the eye exercise please?

Thank you for the informative video .Why is it that only certain people have malar bags and get rid of lymph .

Hat jemand schon Erfolge damit erzielt? 🙂 Has anyone success with it?

Thank you so much, I love you ❤❤

hi mam u look so beautiful

There are tow excerises for malar bags witch one the more effective please

Hi, did the laser lift work in your experiment for the eye bags? I'm considering blethaplasty surgery.

Hi Peta i have been following the malar bag exercise and wanted to know what moisturiser to use on my face as I have heard thAt cream can build up under the skin especially the malar bag area. Thank you.

Thank you mem for the sharing. I have an eye bags so I'll try this simple massages.

Thank you so much peata for tellinf this.I have been doing your series 3 n see my face getting tighter but my undereye bags r not reducing.hope this exerecise will work .thanks

Hi Peta I'm doing this exercise for festoons as a part of a whole face exercise program. Could you recommend a different eye exercise to alternate with, that adresses the problem for the next six weeks? All the best, Janus

Hello! Thanks for demonstrating these exercises. I've only tried them for 2 days, so no improvement yet. But I think I'm doing it correctly because I have slight mucus in throat & a very runny nose. Am I doing this movement correctly -- I squint, focus on pressure points and my cheeks do move up. But I involuntarily smile (corners of mouth go up). IS THIS WRONG ? Please advise. Thank you!

Hi pita.Saw your video while searching how to get rid of malar bags.I am 41 years old but look haggard due to these.I have started doing these exercises. Do u think i can at least reduce if not cure these completely.U r doing a great job.Hats off!!

I have those bags but it get worse when I have to much sodium. Is the excessive sodium on the body that creates the bags. It doesn't go away unless is a surgery.

Should i keep squeze my eyes when i move my fingers up after squezing 10 times?

What series do you add these exercises to

Dear Peta-This might sound like a silly question, but is this considered an "under eye" exercise? I think it is because it's working the orb. oculi, but it's also for the malar area right? I'm wondering because I want to add this to my routine, but I also like your more recent "under eye lift" exercise. I'm trying to remedy hollow eyes/somewhat dark circles (I think). I was just wondering which one (or both) I should do? Thanks, love your work!

I have a question about how to choose and in what order to do the exercises that most benefit my needs. Is it okay to pick and choose from the different exercises you teach us? And is there a particular order in which they should be performed? Is starting at the forehead and working down ok?

Can you help me out? I'm 19 years old and I recently developed festoons and I want to get rid of them. I'm trying out self lympathic drainage + your exercises. What else can I do?

hi Peta....Thanks a lot for changing our life... faces :) grateful to u.... my face has changed a lot...seems like ironed out :) but i still have issues with my nasolobial lines.. laugh lines we say .. lines around lips seems carved on the face.. though they seem to be reduced but these lines are the last ones to respond. i have tried all ur exercise for it... and laser too i have started from 15 feb.. anything else u can suggest. Thanks a lot.. God bless u

Hi Peta...I'm a bit unsure at the moment. Is this an exercise which I can do in addition to the series, or not?

hey I am 20 and recently I have developed these festoons and they are not very severe. going through the comments I saw u asked younger age group to not to start facial exercise can I start it this exercise now at this age?

I have a festoon on one side of my face and there is a lump on my cheek. I did co2 12 weeks ago and it is still there but a little smaller. How can I hide this with makeup! Anyone know. Makeup seems to accentuate it for me. I am very light skinned and the line and lump thank God is white looking. Help ❤

i have festoons and am 15... do i keep doing this exercise?

I'm just 18 nd i have these 🥺 it feels very bad it looks like I'm always tired and sick

Do we have to keep our eyes squeeze when we have to move our fingers up?

Hello Peta, I want to try this exercise, I have this eye problem. I am currently going through your series, almost finished with series 1....5 weeks so far. I am doing everything exactly how you say, including learning all the exercises from your training videos. Please tell me how to add this malar bag exercise to the routines. Do I do this at the end of the routine each day....or replace the eye exercises with this exercise? Thank you for all your lovely help and your lovely self. This is Barbara, not Gary. The comment just comes up under my husband's name :)

I just found your youtube channel today because I was looking for a chin exercise. While I was looking through all your videos, I found this one and now I am wondering about something. Google the word xanthelasma and look at the pictures in google images. The other term for it is cholesterol deposits around the eyes. I have done extensive research on this and have even talked to the best dermatologists and plastic surgeons in my state about it. It is a myth that it has to do with high cholesterol because it doesn't. It is fat deposits that settle under the skin around the eye area. It is terrible to have because people feel very self conscious of it. I know I do. Makeup can hide it, but I feel bad for men because they don't wear makeup. There is no cure for this. Surgery can remove them, but sometimes they come back with a vengeance. Without surgery, people have to live with it. Mine came at the same time that I started to develop malar bags. If you look at the pictures of xanthelasma on the internet, you will see that a lot of people also have bags under their eyes, circles around their eyes, and malar bags. If malar bags are fat under the skin, and xanthelasma is fat under the skin of the eyes, then I'm wondering if this exercise will get rid of the horrid eye problem that I have. I am going to do this exercise faithfully because now I am curious if you hit on something with this exercise that will also get rid of the cholesterol deposits around the eyes. I should take pictures for you in case it works.

Can you please tell the diet plan for malar bags

I'm 28 and had malar bags all my life. I always hated them so I did some research and found that it may be from genetics. I gave some of these exercises a try when I found your video and turns out they looked bit smaller afterward and then they came back when I stopped. I'm going to try doing more as I do my skincare regimen. But should I bother if they come back considering I was born with them? Is it possible they can be gone for good? Thank you so much for your help !

Hi , I'm 68 & just found you on you tube ! Is it to late to build the facial muscles ? Thanks, and waiting for your response. Phyllis
