How can you lose weight on your face? i'm not overweight but my face is chubby. i've got a double chin and i feel extremely self conscious about it.

2 factors: One, jaw posture greatly influences face shape. Retrognathic jaws are mandibles that grew and developed behind the upper jaw. The more retrognathic the jaw the more rounded the face looks and the more prominent a double chin appears. Clenching and grinding at night will also greatly affect the jaw muscles especially the masseter muscles and cause face shape change.
