chiselling that face

I have always thought I would look better with a gaunter face. Now I know the usual, it's genetic, blah blah blah, but I figure in the end fat is fat, and fat loss is fat loss. I'm pretty skinny and reasonably well built at 5'5 and 125 pounds - I go to the gym and muscle shows pretty much everywhere (underneath the skin naturally before anyone gets snarky), except for a little bit of fat where the lower 2 abs of a 6 pack are. Yet in the end my face is still not as chiseled as I would like. Now I am not looking to make any drastic changes but would the usual cardio/eating well chisel out the face? Or are there any quirky little tricks that should be taken into account?

Youtube Jack LaLanne Facial Exercises. There are 30. They work really well.

I'm in China for a month. Youtube is blocked these days. I am officially annoyed. Is there a site with the basics?

i just want to point out that 5'5, 125lbs is not reasonably well built. im 5'7 and 180 and i would consider myself reasonably well built. that being said, if you seriously want a chiseled face you are going to have to figure out how to get more testosterone in your system, or surgery.

I bet your "muscles" show through, since you're rail fuckin' thin.

Start lifting and eating like a grown man and your testosterone will go up. This will, in time, transform your twink face into that of a man.
And you don't need face exercises. Start deadlifting and shrugging heavy, regularly, and you'll see.

I ought to rearrange your face.

I'm not sure how heavy I am supposed to be for 5"5'. Do you have a rough estimate? I haven't been hitting the gym this summer, but during the school year I regularly chest press, curl, run, shoulder press, do ab workouts, etc. I'm by no means "big" but I am at a healthy level. I could do with 5 pounds or 10 pounds more. I am also 17; I am hardly a grown man. I eat a healthy 2500 calories a day though i do have a fast metabolism.

Dude, you can't change the bone structure of your face! Being lean won't make your face chiseled if your bone structure isn't designed that way. Oh and 125 isn't reasonably built; plan a more rounded workout system (deads, squats, etc) for the love of god.
