Hello, I’m a physiotherapy student, and during my classes and from what I’ve been studying, I discovered a way we might be able to increase facial bone density. I’ll explain what this is about below 
As many of you already know, there is something called Wolff’s Law, which proposes that bone can respond to stimuli and can remodel itself. We’re going to apply this law to achieve our goal, it won’t be anything related to bonesmashing, that’s just cope, don’t try it.
Mechanical tension is the main factor that causes muscle hypertrophy, but what does that have to do with bones?
Through this force, which is also transmitted to the bones, mechanical stimuli are generated that activate osteocytes. This activation triggers osteoblastic signaling, promoting a local increase in density and cortical thickness, which can improve facial structure and definition. This is called mechanotransduction, and it will be our main factor for achieving our goal.
Another cofactor is natural microfrequencies that stimulate and can enhance osteoblastic activation, but not frequencies like you might imagine, rather low frequencies that our own body produces through certain actions that I’ll talk about later, and they will act as additional intermittent signals for osteocytes.
In addition, osteoblasts and osteocytes respond to thermal stress. These moderate temperature changes increase metabolic activity, boost cell proliferation, and lead to greater expression of heat shock proteins, which help with bone remodeling and mineralization. This will further enhance the response of osteoblasts.
Now, knowing all of this, what do we do with it? We can’t generate it, or even try to, using facial muscles, because not all facial muscles can hypertrophy.
Or can we? Actually, we can, through isometrics. Isometric exercises DO produce hypertrophy.
But first, what is an isometric exercise? It’s a sustained contraction of a muscle without shortening or lengthening it, unlike isotonic contractions, which are what we’re all familiar with, where the muscle contracts (concentric) and lengthens (eccentric).
This also recruits motor units and generates high mechanical tension, so that gives us a way to reach mechanotransduction. And what about the microfrequencies? Our own body generates them, and the best part is that they occur during activities like this. Isometric exercises also generate these microfrequencies, which will enhance the signals to osteocytes.

Note that if you're expecting these studies to say "yeah this method works" you're not gonna find it. I'm making the exercises BASED off these studies like everything in looksmaxxing, theory that can be brought to practice.
This is not magic, it’s about helping you develop greater bone density while you still have room for improvement. If you’re over 21, there’s no point in trying this, but if you’re between 15 and 16, this is your opportunity to level up.
Now that the theory is explained, I’ll explain the method in a moment. For now, I’ll call it TheBWCKing method
Thermal stress using a warm compress plus steam on the face, optional
Use a towel or any thick cloth that can cover your face. Soak it in hot water until it reaches a temperature between 38–41°C.
Apply it to your face and repeat 2 to 3 times.
Optionally, you can expose your face to hot steam for a few seconds.
Step 2
Isometric bite
Main exercise, always start with this. These are the bones with the highest osteogenic potential.
Hold a towel or any surface that prevents your teeth from fully touching when you bite.
Simulate biting as hard as you can for 2 to 3 seconds, then release and repeat.
2 sets, 6 to 8 reps, 2 minutes rest
Bones involved: mandible, mandibular condyle, temporal bone
Apply resistance under your chin, enough so you can’t fully open your mouth, and try to open it with all your strength for 2 to 3 seconds, then release and repeat.
1 set, 6 to 8 reps, no rest
Bones involved: hyoid
Apply some resistance with your fingers and smile as hard as you can, hold for 2 to 3 seconds, then release and repeat.
2 sets, 6 to 8 reps, 2 minutes rest
Bones involved: zygomatic bones, maxilla
Isometric eyebrow raises, optional.
Apply resistance over your eyebrows and try to raise them with all your strength for 2 to 3 seconds, then release and repeat.
2 sets, 6 to 8 reps, 2 minutes rest
Step 3
Simply apply cold water to your face a couple of times. Do not confuse this with putting ice on your face, very low temperatures, below about 15°C, reduce the benefit.
That’s the end of the method. It should only be done every other day, preferably in a single session that does not exceed 15 to 20 minutes.
Why not do it every day? It wouldn’t bring more benefit, because after a mechanical stimulus, osteocytes need time to resensitize and for the osteogenic cascade to consolidate. Sclerostin decreases and beta-catenin increases, leading to osteoblastic activation. If we stimulate the bone again before this window is completed, the response flattens and there is no additional gain.

Why optional? It barely benefits from mechanotransduction, changes are imperceptible unless you are very young.
Apply resistance over your eyebrows and try to raise them with all your strength for 2 to 3 seconds, then release and repeat.
2 sets, 6 to 8 reps, 2 minutes rest
Step 3
Thermal change again
Simply apply cold water to your face a couple of times. Do not confuse this with putting ice on your face, very low temperatures, below about 15°C, reduce the benefit.
That’s the end of the method. It should only be done every other day, preferably in a single session that does not exceed 15 to 20 minutes.
