Facial muscles & beauty research?

Can anyone find me some links to the research on facial muscle 'vibration' and the degree of attractiveness?

I remember seeing several articles and documentaries over the years relating to this subject but all I have found on the web are ads for facial creams and articles on artificial muscles.

Thanks

Update:

For the benfit of Mr MS I will gladly take replies from anyone regardless of colour, creed or sexuality. Certainly the earliest recorded maxillo-facial surgery was done by the Arabs and Indians AFAIK. I doubt their interest was anything sexual either ;]

Update 2:

Not stimulation - The study said perceived beauty seemed greater when the facial muscles were faster moving. As though we 'like' the faster movement more.

    Are you talking about external electronic stimulation? That's been proven not to induce exercise response. Remember those ab belts?
