Your Face Shouldn’t Be Assessed One Feature At A Time
Your Face Shouldn’t Be Assessed One Feature At A Time
Faces Work in Relationships.
A chin, nose, lip, cheek or jawline can look very different depending on the proportions around it.
A chin may appear small because of its relationship with the lips or nose. A jawline may seem less defined because of changes in the lower face. Treating the feature alone can therefore miss what is shaping the overall impression.
A specialist looks beyond the feature:
- ⚖ Proportion
- ↗ Projection
- 〰 Profile
- ❀ Facial balance
- How neighbouring features relate
Doctor’s Note:
Whole-face assessment considers anatomy, proportions, movement and natural asymmetry before deciding whether a particular area needs treatment.
A feature can look different when the face around it changes.
That is why good aesthetic assessment is whole-face assessment.
