Many new words have emerged this year, and “性缩力” is one of them.
Here are some main manifestations of “性缩力” on the internet:
First place: Greasy. Middle-aged weight gain, coupled with a representative evil smile, never forgetting the “domineering” gene engraved in the bones.
Second place, Dad flavor. You seek emotional value, he just wants to be your dad, always ready to be a big dad anytime, anywhere. Some people even have an “aunt” flavor.
Third place, Untidy. The “dirty bundle” in the crowd gives people a feeling of wanting to stay away from the dirty and smelly.

However, there is an important point in all the manifestations of “性缩力” that everyone has overlooked—it’s not just about getting fat, but also about getting chubby.
Chubbiness not only turns beloved male celebrities from sunny young men to greasy-faced chubby men but also makes your boyfriend’s face look bloated and less attractive.
The once most “sexually appealing” young men have now become very “unattractive.”
Without further ado, let’s discuss today about how to help your boyfriend improve! (Not an advertisement, feel free to “consume” it!)
Initially used to describe kittens, chubby cheeks have now become a matter of concern for many men, leading to dissatisfaction with their appearance.
While chubby cheeks may look adorable on kittens, the same cannot be said for humans.
Occasionally, celebrities make headlines due to their chubby cheeks, and comparison photos before and after can show a drastic transformation.
Harry Potter, the protagonist, attracting attention worldwide as his cheeks gradually puff up:
Once a handsome European and American heartthrob, now looks more like a kind uncle on a couch:
Even heartthrob celebrities are not immune to the power of South Korean fermentation…
Not to mention the middle-aged men around us who struggle with chubby cheeks.
Indeed, everyone is equal when it comes to chubby cheeks.
But seriously, why do such handsome men end up looking unattractive due to chubby cheeks? What’s the deal with chubby cheeks?
The cheek structure consists of the jawbone, chewing muscles, fat, and skin.
01
Genetic Factors
During adolescence, the jawbone reaches its peak growth period, and in adulthood, it generally stops growing.
However, a small percentage of people continue to grow up to 25 years, sometimes even up to 40 years. Women may experience around a 1mm change, while men’s jaws can grow by 3-6mm.
Therefore, men are more prone to chubby cheeks due to genetic factors. (Men: here’s your excuse.)
This falls under the category of skeletal chubby cheeks.
Many men often hold onto their childhood photos, lamenting how they’ve aged poorly, not realizing that chubby cheeks may have played a significant role.
02
Acquired Factors
However, middle-aged chubby cheeks in adulthood are often not just due to skeletal factors.
The first possibility is the chewing muscles.
Consistently chewing hard foods or grinding teeth at night can lead to well-developed chewing muscles and more prominent cheeks.
Compared to females, males, due to testosterone, experience faster muscle growth and are more prone to well-developed chewing muscles, leading to chubby cheeks.
As seen in the first image, beyond the chewing muscles lies fat. Many middle-aged celebrities with chubby cheeks began their journey from a state of being overweight. Facial fat accumulates at the jaw angle, causing the face to round out.
Overindulgence and unhealthy lifestyle habits that lead to chubby cheeks often result in overall body “swelling,” necessitating a larger clothing size.
It’s no wonder they say men are like blossoms before love, and mud pies after.
While some people develop chubby cheeks due to dietary and lifestyle management issues, for many, age is the ultimate “butcher’s knife.”
As age advances, facial collagen depletes, elastic fibers age and break, and the facial fascia tension weakens, causing facial fat displacement, deformation, and a wider, larger face.
A sudden return to the pre-liberation era, leaving girlfriends in tears.
By this point, men must be trembling in fear: so, is there no way to fix this?
Of course, there are some ways to improve the situation.
01
Diet Management
Three things to watch for in your diet:
1. Control fat intake and types to avoid fat-related chubby cheeks.
2. Reduce activities like chewing to control muscular chubby cheeks.
3. Consume foods that increase skin elasticity, reducing skin damage.
In particular: Avoid consuming high-sugar, high-fat foods; reduce intake of nuts, and those who like chewing betel nuts or gum can consider cutting back; consume more fresh fruits and vegetables that protect skin elasticity.
02
Exercise Management
In terms of exercise, swimming, yoga, and running can help tighten the whole body, including the face, and also aid in fat burning.
Additionally, consider performing facial massage techniques to promote blood circulation and detoxification.
There are two acupressure points for massage. One is the Da Ying point, which visually reduces the size of the chewing muscles.
The other is the Di Cang point, which targets chubby cheeks, pronounced nasolabial lines, and drooping mouth corners.
03
Skin Care Management
First and foremost, the best skincare regimen involves getting enough sleep and avoiding late nights!
Furthermore, consider using anti-wrinkle and firming skincare products to enhance skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles, and prevent skin sagging.
Regarding the more curious aspect of medical aesthetics—such as face slimming injections, partial jaw muscle excision, and skin-tightening surgeries—they come with inherent risks and should be approached with caution.
For more specific medical aesthetics/skin needs, consult with renowned professionals in medical aesthetics or dermatology.
