Abstract:
A facial exercise apparatus for facial muscle and bone resistance training and method of use. The facial exercise apparatus includes one or more flexor arms and a mouthpiece stabilizer, each connected to a flexor head connector. The flexor arm(s) extend upward, downward, left or right from the flexor head connector, have contours to place the patient's lips, and provide a resistance force outward from the flexor head connector. In use, a patient places and bites down upon the mouthpiece stabilizer, places a portion of their lips along a contoured portion of one or more of the flexor arms, and pushes their lips toward the center of the flexor head connector against the resistance of the flexor arm(s). When done at regular intervals and increasing resistances, the apparatus can strengthen a patient's facial muscles and bone and reduce the cosmetic appearance of wrinkles on their face.

Claim (Index 3):
The facial exercise apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said flexing component comprises an adjustable spring capable of adjusting a resistance against said at least one lip portion.
