what program are you modeling in? if its max it might be a good idea to clone the entire head and then move certain parts like only the eye up then clone again and make it squint ect. do this for each part of the face after you do all that add a morpher modifier to the "original head" then play with the percentage in the morpher modifier to get cool expression. Its a long process but its worth it.
