Factors That Determine Facial Attractiveness

3 factors that determine facial attractiveness in men and women. Dimorphism, proportional harmony and soft tissues formed by skin and fat tissue.

Dimorphism refers to the distinct physical differences that distinguish men and women. Polymorphism means having common features in the same species. Like feminine facial features on a man or, for example, Alain Delon having big feminine eyes.

Features of sexual dimorphism in the male face (making it masculine):
– Prominent face with bones
– Flat wide forehead
– Bone prominence at eyebrow level (brow ridge)
– Deep set eyes
– Sharp and narrow forehead-nasal bone angle
– Wide and high cheekbones
– Strong large nasal ridge
– Large strong lower jaw
– Hair, Mustache and beard
– Thick neck and prominent thyroid cartilage (Adam’s apple)

Female sexual dimorphism: Feminine characteristics
– Face with soft tissue predominance
– Get round
– The angle of the forehead and nose bone is round and wide
– Large eyes placed in front
– Hair and Eyelashes
– Small nose
– Weak lower jaw, small chin tip
– Thin neck and obscure Adam’s apple

The more feminine features a woman has on her face, the more attractive she is perceived to be. The same goes for masculine characteristics in men.

Dimorphic face and features, a spectrum determined by sex hormones in a healthy person. With hormone change, dysmorphic features shift to polymorphism. It becomes unclear with age.

These features and differences are carefully taken into consideration in all facial aesthetic applications. Especially in women, feminine balance must be maintained in filler applications on the jawline and tip, as well as on the forehead and cheekbones.
