Yes — the system, both the tools and the exercises, is designed for safe, daily use by a board-certified physician with patient safety as the top priority. The tools are made from medical-grade silicone, the same material trusted for infant pacifiers.

Unlike DIY makeshift tools made from household items, our tools were engineered specifically for the mouth. That means it’s not only safe and hygienic, but also effective for targeting the right, dynamic muscle groups.

For best results, use it as part of your self-care routine — and like brushing your teeth, it delivers both immediate benefits and long-term protection for your health, vitality, and appearance.

The tools are crafted from premium medical-grade silicone — the very same material used in baby pacifiers and medical devices. Their density and level of resistance is designed specifically for the muscles above the neck. Safe, durable, and easy to clean, they’re built for long-term daily use.

Using the Neck-Up Strength System is simple. Place one tool at a time in your mouth — either the Triangle or the Butterfly — and follow the guided exercises in your instruction guide or the step-by-step video tutorials on our website.

Just like fitness for the body, consistency builds lasting strength for the face. For best results, use it daily as part of your self-care routine. Just a few minutes a day is enough. 

And don’t be afraid to laugh at yourself while doing the moves — it not only lifts your mood but also supports better mental health.

Many users notice changes within just a few weeks — things like eased jaw tension, a sharper jawline, or feeling more rested after sleep.

Results build over time. Short regular sessions create visible improvements that compound — leading to stronger, more dramatic benefits the longer you stay consistent.

Studies show that strengthening facial, mouth, and airway muscles improves lift, tone, and function — delivering both aesthetic benefits like facial rejuvenation, and functional relief like better breathing, sleep, and less jaw tension.

The Neck-Up Strength System creates lasting changes because it strengthens the muscles that support your face, jaw, and airway. Just like fitness for the body, results stay as long as you maintain the healthy habit.

If you stop completely, muscles gradually weaken again — which can bring back signs of sagging, tension, or disrupted sleep. The good news is that with just a few minutes a day, you can maintain your progress and keep building on it over time.

The Neck-Up Strength System was designed as one complete solution. Each tool plays a complementary role, targeting different muscle groups and functions through resistance training.

The Triangle primarily activates the larger surface muscles to build foundational strength and tone, while the Butterfly engages deeper, harder-to-reach muscles of the throat, tongue, and airway.

Together, they activate the full network of 50+ facial and airway muscles that no single gadget or exercise can reach alone. By engaging these interconnected muscles at once, the system delivers faster, more visible, and longer-lasting results you can see and feel: sharper contours, smoother skin, improved breathing, better sleep, and lasting jaw relief.

The Neck-Up Strength System was first created by a physician as a solution to her own rapid muscle loss in midlife, triggered by estrogen decline during perimenopause and menopause.

But it isn’t just for women in midlife and beyond. Many younger people — including men and kids — use the system to strengthen their muscles and:

• Breathe better, without relying on nose strips or mouth tape
• Relieve jaw tension and TMJ, and reduce grinding
• Sleep more deeply, snore less, and wake feeling refreshed — without mouth guards or sleep medications

The system is also increasingly recommended by professionals  — from dentists and sleep specialists to speech and myofunctional therapists and estheticians — who see firsthand how the system supports health, daily function, quality of life, and appearance. Experts recognize it as a safe, non-invasive, strength-building system that delivers real results in breathing, sleeping, and daily comfort.

With proper care, the Neck-Up Strength System tools are designed to last — made from durable, medical-grade silicone.

We recommend checking your tools regularly for signs of natural wear, such as small tears or cracks, or a change in resistance. If you notice these changes, it’s actually good news: it means you’ve been consistently strengthening your muscles above the neck. At that point, it’s time to replace your tools to keep your training safe and effective.

Many users like to keep an extra tool set on hand — in a bag, car, or vanity — so they never miss a day and can stay consistent anywhere.

Yes — the Neck-Up Strength System helps improve skin elasticity, firmness, and facial rejuvenation. By strengthening the deep and surface muscles that support your skin, it restores youthful skin structure from within. Unlike temporary fixes, stronger muscles keep skin firmer and lifted — for results that look natural and last. 

Studies find that strength training boosts collagen, circulation, and resilience — improving texture and glow. Many women notice firmer, brighter skin as a result.

Yes. The Neck-Up Strength System works by strengthening the 50+ muscles above the neck — including those that shape your jawline, cheeks, and lips. Just like the rest of the body, these muscles respond to resistance.

When estrogen decline accelerates muscle loss in midlife, it shows up as sagging skin, softened jawlines, and thinning lips. By rebuilding muscle strength, the system naturally:

• Sculpts and defines the jawline (jawline sculpting)
• Lifts and restores cheek fullness (cheek lift)
• Smooths sagging and lines with a non-invasive facelift effect
• Plumps and enhances lip shape and color (plump lips)

Many women report visible changes, like jawline definition, within weeks of consistent use.

Yes — by retraining and strengthening the muscles of the jaw, tongue, and cheeks, the Neck-Up Strength System delivers real jaw tension relief, eases TMJ discomfort, and reduces teeth grinding by addressing the root cause. It works by balancing overworked muscles while reactivating the ones that are underutilized. 

Evidence supports this approach: resistance training doesn’t just temporarily relax surface muscles — it restores proper function and alignment. The result is greater ease, improved mobility, flexibility, range of motion, and lasting comfort in daily life. Many people share that within weeks, they feel jaw tension ease and notice less clenching at night.

Yes — by strengthening the tongue and airway-supporting muscles, the Neck-Up Strength System improves airflow and reduces the blockages that cause snoring. This targeted resistance training builds tone where it matters most: in the airway and tongue.

Sleep quality isn’t just about hours in bed — it’s about breathing clearly so your body can fully recover. When you don’t, the effects show up fast: fatigue, irritability, anxiety, stress, and foggy thinking. Over time, poor sleep affects blood pressure, blood sugar, metabolism, hormones balance, and your immune system. 

Research shows strengthening the dynamic face, tongue, and throat muscles helps improve oxygen flow at night, with less reliance on CPAP, nasal strips, or mouth tape. The result: less snoring, easier breathing, and deeper, more restorative sleep. Users consistently share that their snoring reduced and their partners reported sleeping better, too.

Yes — the Neck-Up Strength System addresses the root cause of mouth breathing: weak muscles in the tongue, lips, cheeks, and jaw. By strengthening these areas, the system supports nasal breathing, tongue posture, and natural lip closure, without reliance on mouth tape. 

Studies find this shift has lasting benefits: more consistent nasal breathing protects dental health, supports the oral microbiome, lowers the risk of recurring respiratory illness, and even helps regulate metabolism.

The result: easier breathing, less dry mouth, fewer nighttime wake-ups, and long-term protection for your overall health and well-being.

Yes — the Neck-Up Strength System strengthens the airway and tongue muscles that weaken during perimenopause and menopause, often leading to snoring, mouth breathing, dry- mouth, and disrupted sleep. By restoring muscle strength, tone and function where it matters most, the system supports steady nasal breathing and deeper, more restorative rest.

Evidence supports that better airway strength reduces nighttime wake-ups, lessens insomnia symptoms, and improves oxygen flow — all critical for energy, mood, and resilience during midlife and beyond. Unlike medications or devices, our system is a natural solution that rebuilds strength from within to support lasting sleep quality and improved quality of life.

The result: easier nights, brighter mornings, and a foundation for long-term health and vitality. Users share that they not only fall asleep faster but also wake up more refreshed and energized.

Unlike surface tools or facial movement exercises, the Neck-Up Strength System is a single, complete solution built on active resistance training for maximum efficiency.

Face rollers and gua sha may boost circulation, and face yoga can activate a few muscles — but to achieve meaningful, lasting changes, you’d need a collection of different gadgets and time-consuming routines just to attempt to activate the full system of 50+ facial and airway muscles with resistance.

The Neck-Up Strength System does it all in one. It strengthens all the key superficial and deep muscles of the face with just two tools and targeted resistance training. By engaging multiple interconnected muscle groups at once, it delivers faster, more visible, and longer-lasting results — for both aesthetics and function.

Users consistently report firmer tone, reduced jowls and sagging, sharper jawline definition, and functional benefits like easier breathing and less jaw tension.

Peer-reviewed research confirms that targeted training above the neck impacts both visible aging and overall function. Studies show that facial and airway muscle training increases skin elasticity, stimulates collagen, and restores youthful fullness by rebuilding the muscular support beneath the skin.

Beyond aesthetics, research also demonstrates benefits across multiple systems:

• Airway & sleep — improved stability, reduced snoring, deeper restorative sleep
• Jaw & dental health — lasting TMJ relief, less teeth grinding, better bite alignment, protection against gum decline and tooth loss
• Speech & swallowing  — stronger tongue function, improved swallowing, clearer articulation, aspiration prevention and reversal
• Mental well-being — better oxygen flow, improved energy, enhanced clarity, mood regulation, reduced anxiety

The Neck-Up Strength System is grounded in resistance training, airway health, and muscle physiology — and supported by peer-reviewed studies across dermatology, dentistry, sleep medicine, gastroenterology, otolaryngology (ENT), pulmonology, speech and language pathology, physical therapy, and neurology.

Absolutely. The Neck-Up Strength System is one of the only tools safe to use after Botox, fillers, or even a facelift — unlike most gadgets, which are contraindicated.

Working beneath the skin, it strengthens and builds the muscles that support your results — helping maintain cosmetic procedures by enhancing Botox results, prolonging fillers, and extending the lift from a facelift.

The system also supports skin firmness and helps maintain natural youthful contours, shape, and symmetry. The result is a natural, non-invasive facelift effect that complements professional treatments.

Users often share that their results not only look more natural but also last longer when combined with the system.

No — the Neck-Up Strength System isn’t a replacement for medical treatments like CPAP or mouth guards, but it can be a powerful complement.

By strengthening the tongue, lips, and airway-supporting muscles, it addresses root causes behind issues like snoring, sleep-disordered breathing, and clenching. 

Evidence shows targeted muscle training improves airway stability and makes CPAP or oral appliances more comfortable and effective. Users often notice fewer wake-ups and more restful sleep, with less reliance on devices.

As always, consult your healthcare provider for any health-related concerns or before making changes to prescribed treatments. The Neck-Up Strength System is a safe, non-invasive tool designed to support — not replace — medical care.

Yes — absolutely. The Neck-Up Strength System is safe to use with dental work, orthodontics, or prosthetics. The tools are made from soft, medical-grade silicone that’s gentle and flexible, so they won’t interfere with retainers, implants, dentures, braces, or clear aligners.

In fact, many dentists recommend it, and users often report improved comfort with their appliances as their muscles strengthen and balance over time. Of course, check with your dentist or orthodontist if you have specific concerns.

Because almost no one talks about muscle loss above the neck — even though it accelerates during perimenopause and menopause. Most people only associate resistance training with the body, below the neck. 

This is why signs like sagging, jaw tension, snoring, and insomnia are often dismissed as “normal aging” or treated as separate symptoms with quick fixes, medication, and even surgery. Dr. Katie Kennedy, MD, connected the hidden root cause — estrogen decline leading to muscle loss above the neck — and designed the first complete system to reverse this loss.

Users consistently share that once they try the Neck-Up Strength System, they can’t believe no one told them about it sooner.
