What Are Concerns With Face Shape Or Unbalanced Profile?
Your natural face shape and profile is largely dictated by your own unique genetics. However, other factors can impact your face shape such as your BMI or tendency to grinding your teeth which can make your lower face appear wider. Your profile and face shape may also be impacted by any previous filler work that you may have had in the past. Concerns can arise when your natural characteristics do not look the way you want them to from a front or side view, and common conditions can include weak jaw, receding chin, flat cheeks, misshapen nose and thin lips.
Both men and women can be affected by the way their face shape and profile appears and how we address your concerns varies widely depending on your own unique anatomy.
How Are These Concerns Caused?
Your genetics play the largest role in determining your natural face shape and profile. Often people will find that their face shape runs in their family, and as they age, certain characteristics they noticed in their parents may become more obvious in themselves such as jowls or hollow cheeks.
Also, if you clench or grind your teeth your lower face may also become wider giving the appearance of weight gain or chubby cheeks due to the muscles you use to clench your teeth growing in size. Your teeth are only meant to be touching for around 17 minutes a day, therefore the overuse of these muscles when grinding or clenching your teeth, leads to their growth in size (hypertrophy). In addition, as we age, favourable fat pads in the upper face start to shrink and descend making the lower face appear heavier. Certain fat pads such as the jowls, double chin area and above the nasolabial folds also increase in size, adding to the effect of heaviness in the lower face.
