You might came across some men, even at the age of 20’s they still have baby face (rounded chin and loose skin around the chin).
A structured/Chiseled jawline is aesthetically attractive. To be frank, it is every man’s dream. It makes your face masculine, but for many reasons, most men don’t have a chiseled jawline.
This is due to lifestyle habits, food habits, and many other aspects of our daily lives. The good news is, we can get a structured jawline if we follow some techniques specified in this blog post.
So, let’s talk about what is a chiseled jawline in men, and how to get a chiseled jawline with the help of the techniques proven to get the aesthetically desired jawline.
So, let’s get started…
What is a Chiseled Jawline:
The word chiseled means more defined/sculpted, if we use this in the context of our face, more precisely, to our Jaw we can say that it is a chiseled Jaw-line.
The one important point to note is, that any part of the body gets more defined by exercising.
It is also true for our face as well, so facial exercises, chewing gums, meowing are the main techniques for getting a chiseled Jaw-line.
Now that you’ve got a basic understanding of chiseled Jaw-line let’s look at the techniques by which we can get a chiseled Jaw-line.
The first technique is the root cause of a chubby face is fat. So, fat loss is a best way to get a chiseled jaw-line. So, let’s talk about fat loss first.
Fat loss:
If you are trying to get a chiseled jaw-line, the first thing you want do is try reduce your body fat.
This is the basic step in achieving a chiseled Jaw-line. People think fat accumulation is confined to the body, but that’s not entirely true.
Every part of our body can accumulate fat and face is also one of them.
What to do to get a chiseled jaw-line? simple, try to reduce fat by exercising regularly or doing cardio. Exercise tightens the skin of the whole body including your face.
The second most important aspect in getting a chiseled jaw-line is the facial exercises.
Facial exercises:
This might be the best technique for getting a chiseled jaw-line, if you are exercising your body and you might start to lose fat you can observe a more defined jaw-line by now, but the results are not that satisfying so try facial exercises along with your exercising routine.
We know facial muscles are less used compared to body muscles, so you need to take extra care for face.
It accumulates fat because of the body posture – as we look downwards while using our mobiles, this is another reason for not getting a chiseled jaw-line.
These facial exercises works by tightening your face’s skin and gives you a more defined jaw-line. There are a quiet a few facial exercises for stronger jaw-line, so, here we will talk about 5 of them.

This exercise is effective when you do it while lying on your back, first bring your chin towards your chest then lift your head off the ground for about 2-3 inches.
Do this exercise for 3 sets of 10 repetitions, be gentle with the exercises when you’re starting out, as these muscles are not used frequently.
Collar bone backup:
You can do this in 3 ways by standing, by lying on back and in seating postures.
Make sure to level your head with the floor, bring your head back few inches so that you can feel the muscles of your chin and throat contract and relaxed.
Again do this exercise for 3 sets of 10 repetitions and after few days increase the holding time for about 30 seconds.
Tongue Twister:
First, place your tongue on the roof of the mouth, you’ll feel the muscles around the chin area contracts.
Then hold and release the tongue from the mouth, for contraction and relaxing of the muscles of the chin and throat area.
Do this for 3 sets of 15 repetitions for better results.
Vowel Sounds:
This is very simple, you just need to make two vowel sounds namely ‘E’ and ‘O’.
This is very effective for muscles around the cheeks and lips .
Make sure to exaggerate these sounds to make them more effective.
Perform this exercise for 3 sets of 15 as well.
Chin-ups:
As the name suggests you need to lift your chin up so as to make the muscles work more.
If you do this you can feel the stretch on the jaw-line.

If you follow these exercises regularly you will definitely see a change in your face appearance. Now we move on to the third important technique called Mewing.
Mewing:
If you can observe I specified Mewing above but I need to give it a special mention. Mewing is a great technique to get a chiseled jaw-line.
You might be intimidated by the name but it is quite easy to do. The idea is simple, flatten out your tongue press it against the roof of your mouth, and hold it for a few seconds.
When you do this, you might observe, the skin of your jaw gets tightened and the skin on the throat also gets tightened.
This is the beauty of mewing, we often rest our tongue somewhere in the middle or at the bottom.
But if you rest your tongue at the bottom you will get a chubby jaw-line.
Of course, it is hard to do, since our childhood we’ve been involuntarily resting our tongue on the lower/middle of our mouth.
But with some practice we can achieve this and improve the appearance of the jaw-line, by doing this one simple thing over a long period.
Here is a comprehensive guide to how to mew.
So, to get chiseled Jaw-line practice mewing daily. The 4th technique Chewing gum.
Chewing Gum:
Chewing gum is like a workout for the face, if you chew it the right way. So, What’s the right way?
Well, you need to chew the gum with more pressure jaw gets tightened.
To be frank, chewing a piece of gum for 2 or 3 days straight will not help. What I mean by this is you need to chew gum on a daily basis to get a chiseled jaw-line.
The irony is that, although chewing a gum is a great way to get a chiseled jaw-line but that’s not the only solution.
If you stop it for, let’s say, 2-3 days straight, the skin becomes loose again, and if you do not change your lifestyle it proves to be ineffective. So, you need to do it internally by reducing salt intake.
Reduce salt intake:
It is said that the “sodium in the salt pulls water into blood vessels and enlarges them. This can cause your face, legs, ankles, and feet to swell” says WebMD.
You might have observed this when you ate salty food at night and the next morning you wake up. You’ll notice your face gets bloated. This makes your face chubby and without any structure.
So, reduce the salt intake, just try it for 10 days and you can see how it sculpts your face. The 5th most effective technique is face massage.
Face Massage/Jaw massage:
Face massage is a great way to promote blood circulation to your face. It helps in reducing puffiness of the face and makes it look more defined and it even increases blood circulation for your face.
Here is a quick way to massage your face, first off apply moisturizer/oil to your face. Start off by massaging your forehead first, then massage your cheeks, followed by the jaw-line, and finally end the massage with the neck.
Wait! Here is they key, you have to be gentle while doing face massage, else you end up hurting your skin.
One more thing, you’ll to massage in a small circular motion, otherwise the skin stretches out which is not good for the skin.
In this way massaging your face on a regular basis can give you a more defined face.
The next thing we are gonna talk about is staying hydrated by drinking adequate water. It helps in the overall good health of the body.
Most of all, your face, drinking water eliminates toxins from our faces and makes the tissues of the face look more defined.
Drink Adequate water/Stay hydrated:
Before going into this, let us understand the Lymphatic system of our face briefly because this is the primary reason for bloating issues in your body.
The lymphatic system is like a drainage system, used to remove toxins from our body/face by removing waste materials from our cells.
Drinking adequate water helps in regulating the Lymphatic system, How? By staying hydrated the lymphatic liquid moves quickly.
If the Lymphatic liquid gets stagnant it retains toxins and appears bloated. Hence our face looks bloated. So, this is the reason you need to stay hydrated to make your face appear more chiseled.
Although, the lymphatic system is active throughout the body we just discussed for face. The same process carried out throughout our body, this is just to give you a better understanding.
Now the interesting part, how growing the beard or trimming in a certain way can improve your face appearance.
Grow Beard/take care of your facial hair:
Beard is certainly one of the best things a man can have, you might have experienced this. Trimming the beard in a certain way can make your face look more chiseled.
In this, we are talking about how to shave your beard to make your face look more structured. This is how you do it, you need to just create an illusion that you have a sharper jaw-line. You can do this by trimming your beard in this way.
For this, trimming your neckline is the key part, here’s how you do it. Place your index finger above the Adam’s apple, shave the area below the finger, and leave everything above.
Trim the beard on the cheeks as well, again there is no exact way to determine how you shape your beard on the cheeks as it may change with face shape. For the time being, just experiment with it.
