Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

Thanks for posting the query. Before trying out to reduce fat the main concern should be to diagnose the reason for increased weight gain. I suggest you to get thyroid profile and serum cortisol levels tested. If no other medical illness associated with weight gain then regular exercise and maintenance in diet will surely give you a good result in weight loss. You can do some specific facial exercises like chin lifts, cheek puffs, massage and fish face. If you have any habit of alcohol or smoking I suggest you to quit.

Take care.
