The part above the line passing from front to back through the mandibular symphsis, process of mastoid (temporal bone) and external occipital protuberance (occipital bone) is called regions of head. In this region, there are facial muscles, muscles of scalp, muscles of face, muscles of mastication, muscles of eyeball, muscles of tympanic cavity and muscles of palate and tounge. There are muscles in the human face that allow a variety of facial expressions to occur. These muscles are used to show surprise, disgust, anger, fear, and other emotions. The most common clinical issues affecting facial musculature are paralysis, blepharospasm or hemifacial spasm, bruxism, and aging. Peripheral facial paralysis may lead to psychosocial impairments such as depressive symptoms, high anxiety levels, and poor quality of life. The quality of life of patients with peripheral facial paralysis decreases. Face yoga consists of various exercises that can provide an anti-aging and anti-wrinkle effect by targeting various muscles on the face. It can help eliminate the signs of aging by strengthening the muscles in the areas where wrinkles form by performing certain movements on the face. In addition, many muscles in the facial region are the main materials of plastic and reconstructive surgery in the creation of facial aesthetics and architecture.
