No matter what people might tell you, the truth is that whenever we meet someone, the face is the first thing we notice and use it to base our judgment on their appearance.
In fact, our first impression of beauty is judged based on the structure of the face. A person with high cheekbones, a chiseled jawline and sharp edges make a much better impression than someone with chubby or fat cheeks.
Yes, some might say that you look cute in your chubby cheeks, but you know that you would rather be hot and sexy than cute and chubby. Additionally, a chubby face gives you a childish appearance which is highly undesirable.
Let’s first look at what are the major causes for chubby cheeks.
Why do you have Chubby Cheeks?
- Genetics: You are genetically configured to have more muted facial features or your body’s fat percentage is higher. It does not mean that you cannot lose face fat but it definitely makes it harder for you.
- Bodyweight: If you are overweight and have excess fat across your body, there is a strong chance that fat has found its way in the three fat zones near the cheeks: two at the cheekbones and one at the side of the nose called nasolabial compartment.
- Lack of essential nutrients: Your diet lacks essential nutrients, such as Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and Omega-3 Fatty acids, that are essential for maintaining a healthy and tight skin.
- Excess Sugar and Carbohydrates: Your diet includes an excess amount of sugars and carbohydrates that mostly turns into fat that gets stored on your face.
- Dehydration or excess salt: Lack of water consumption and excess intake of salt from junk food may lead to water retention and make your face bloated.
- Lack of sleep: Lack of sleep due to stress or poor sleep habits may slow down metabolism and lead to water retention causing chubby cheeks.
- Excessive consumption of alcohol or smoking: Excessive intake of alcohol may lead to considerable water retention making your face look larger. Smoking has a direct impact on the health of your skin and may make it look older and plumper than it is supposed to be.
So, is there a quick yet effective way to get rid of chubby cheeks and turn into the hot-shot you were supposed to be?
The short answer is, yes.
Long answer is that while you can easily reduce face fat caused due to poor diet or exercise routines through concentrated efforts, changes to chubby cheeks that are caused by genetic factors (such as bone structures and size of saliva glands) might be limited and difficult to make but you can definitely minimize their effects by maintaining a healthy diet and exercise.
