I want to lose weight in my face.?
I have a fat looking face but in a BMI calculator I am 21. I am not muscular and am fat(25% on those scales that measure body fat percentage). I am wondering if doing exercise will make my face lose weight. If it can't is surgery the only option? Please I really want to as I have a low self-esteem. I am 15.

- well cut down on sweets and add up on the veggies and fruits....you could exercise at ur local gym and onced you start to lose weight on your body youll eventually lose weight on your face...hopefully.....maybe!!! hahaha! jk! you will if you really want to
- Honestly there is no way to just only target your face to lose weight. You face may thin out if you you exercise to lose weight in general (target whole body). As you lose weight your face may begin to look thinner.. But this doesnt happen for everyone sometimes their face may stay the same.. I kind of get how you feel though. I have a very round face with kind of big cheeks, but i dont let it bother me

- You are not fat!!!!! With a BMI of 21, you are the ideal size for your height. This is fabulous! It 's natural for us to look in the mirror and only see the things we don't like. I can guarantee that when other people look at you they are not thinking that you are fat. No one else will notice your perceived flaws - they are too busy looking at their own! I haven't seen your face, but I'm guessing that your face shape is round rather than oval. A round face can appear to be 'fatter' than an oval face, but it is not actual fat. Your skin has the moisture that all those anti-ageing creams are trying to give people. When you lose that moisture, you get wrinkles. Wear a sunscreen with 15+ moisturiser every day of the year to keep your skin looking young for as long as possible. Exercising is good to keep you fit and healthy and it will build up muscle tone. However, it is not possible to lose weight from a particular part of your body. Exercise can give you an overall toned look. Surgery can not change the shape of your face and you shouldn't want it to. I recommend you go to a good hairdresser and ask them to show you styles that suit your face shape. Also, take someone whose opinion you trust when you go clothes shopping and ask for honest opinions. No matter what you do, you will not end up looking like a super model. Not even the models do because as well as all the make-up and stylists, the photographers airbrush any flaws out of the photos. Go out with a smile on your face and look people in the eye. A confident, smiling face is always beautiful! :)
- i tend to have a round face also.. so let me tell you my tricks. wear blush to accent ur cheek bones. experiment putting it on to see what makes your face look the way you want it to! Also play with the part in your hair. a side part on my face makes my face look totally round where as a slightly off middle part lengthens it. hey maybe you need some highlights around your face or some layers!
