Facial Exercise
Nov 25, 2002

I've read about the possible benefits of facial muscle exercise for facial wasting. Where can I find out more ? Are there pics available of the results?

Response from Ms. Fields-Gardner

This was the subject of a project reported at the International Conference on AIDS in Barcelona this summer which suggested some benefit in facial wasting. It was also the topic of a recent article in HIV Plus magazine.

I don't know of pictures available for persons who are experiencing facial wasting with HIV infection.

There are many websites dedicated to selling facial exercise programs. I have not reviewed their information and so can't make a recommendation for them. But for some suggestions on where to start with facial exercise, check out the exercise instructions in the book by Carole Maggio called "Facercise."

Best wishes!
