Facial exercises for higher cheekbones
As of this writing, our office is unaware of any exercise program that can do this. If you start on a type of program, please take photos and take copious notes. You can them judge if there is any benefit. Typically one needs volume in the area.

Exercises for a higher cheekbone
In short, the answer is no. The main mass of the cheek is fat, not muscle. If anything, it will cause deflation of the fat and your cheek will diminish in size. You will need filler injections or a cheek lift or even fat grafts to achieve a larger cheek. Sorry about this bad news.

Muscle enlargement through exercise is for the gym
Thanks for the interesting question. There will always be someone who thinks they can improve their face by avoiding surgery. And I salute them and the innovative things they are willing to do.

Face Exercises to Elevate Cheekbones?
Sorry. While exercise for your body can work wonders, not so for the face. Facial exercises are more likely to incur dynamic activity lines, furrows, and wrinkles! In fact, that's one reason botulinum (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) products have become so popular... They immobilize and relax overly active facial muscles. Elevation or enhanced cheekbones can only occur with implants, fillers, volumizers, fat transfer, or cheeklifting (at present) Limit your workouts to below the neck!
