since the early 2010s the phenomenon of contouring
the face using makeup has become enormously popular since then the internet and social media
have been filled with tutorials on how to use makeup to emphasize or hide certain facial Futures
essentially it's about creating Shadow and light on the face to give the illusion of a more defined
bone structure this is mainly done using dark powders or creams highlighters and sometimes blush
if you look at these examples you can see that contouring
with makeup can create dramatic effects
all without surgery but now makeup is obviously not permanent you have to apply it every day
and remove it which can be a very timeconsuming process in this hectic Society there are probably
people who Contour every day but I think that for the average person dramatic makeup contouring is
more of an activity for special events therefore I'm going to explain how as a cosmetic doctor
I can use injectables to Contour faces with the advantage that it usu
ally lasts for months and
you can go to sleep and wake up with it for this video I will mainly focus on the different face
shapes and especially if you're a fan of makeup then you know that the shape of your face often
determines where you put your blush and where it's best to put highlighter and bronzer if you're
planning to change your hairstyle for example face shape is also an important factor to consider
your face shape determines which contouring treatments will best accentuate your f
ace but also
how you will age over time the shape of your face is the first thing people notice from a distance
it reflects the balance and Harmony between your upper half and lower half of your face face types
are determined by the ratio of the length of your face to the width of your face or the facial index
the ideal female face is ideally 1.3 times longer than it is wide therefore you can have faces with
a Balan ratio in terms of width and height also known as misof facial you can have
an elongated
face delishop facial or a shorter and WI Wier face Breer facial additionally we look at the
Wii of the forehead Chek bones and jawline and the position and density of soft tissue all the
face shapes you have heard of such as oval Square long round hard- shaped or diamonds stem from
these measurements and ratios an abundance of fat pets and thicker soft tissue often leads to a
rounder face shape while less soft tissue and fat lead to a narrower face shape this clearly shows
the
difference between for example Selena Gomez and jelle Benin it's also important to mention
that everything typically feminine such as softer curves and soft lines is considered beautiful for
women meanwhile we tend to view wider lower faces with sharper angles and lines as attractive
for men despite this we currently see a trend of feminine beauty with angular and defined lines
which we can observe in movies social media and on the catwalk another factor in the attractiveness
of face shape
is Futures we associate with you fulness in a previous video I discussed the
triangle of Youth where a characteristic of Youth is a triangular shape with a narrow bottom
of the face however I do want to emphasize before I continue with this video that oval face shape
is considered ideal for women in the first place and heart-shaped and diamond shaped in the second
place this doesn't mean that we can't find beauty in people with other face shapes for example
Selena Gomez is known for her ve
ry round face but is considered a very beautiful woman worldwide
additionally jelle brin's face is a bit too long according to the ratio of length to width but she
still had a very successful career as a Top Model I will now discuss each face shape with its
strengths and weaknesses and how injectables can be used to improve the face shape and address
facial aging note that we don't necessarily need to change the face shape but we can enhance
the structure of the face for example if you have
a round face it can be treated to make it
a bit more oval if you have a square face face you can make it less square and even if you have
an oval face that lacks definition you can give it more definition by making it more hard shaped
another possibility is balancing your face shape by making it more symmetrical adding definition to
faces with little definition and softening faces that are angular and have a lot of definition
let's start with the round face shape examples of celebrities wi
th a round face are Selena Gomez
Chrissy Igan drewberry Moore round faces are often as long as they are white which can often create
the look of a baby face how do we best Contour round faces using fillers chin fillers are a must
for round faces since chin fillers can extend the chin making the face look longer and the round
face more oval shaped we can also inject fillers into the cheekbones to give more definition to the
face finally it can sometimes also be beautiful to use muscle relaxa
nt commonly known as Botox in
the messeter muscle or jaw muscle for patients with round faces this will cause The Messer muscle
to become a bit smaller narrowing the jawline this also helps in achieving a closer look to an oval
face the problem for the round face in aging is that because there is a lot of soft tissue it
tends to sack this face shape is therefore very prone to sagging and the round face will become
more Square as a large volume sags down to jawline and neck for Rejuvenation
the target areas are
the mid face with a focus on the lateral Chic bone the lateral zigoma to restore facial contour for
sagging in the pre jaw area we can inject fillers into the jawline for lifting due to the loss of
fat Hollow can also form under the eyes so we need to fill in the tear troughs it is also true
that people with a round face often need larger amounts of filler than average because they have
so much soft tissue and much more volume is needed before you see definition caution
too much filler
in the middle part of the face is not recommended Ed as it will not look naturally beautiful we see
this with Chrissy tyan who has been overfilled in the midface area now let's talk about a square
face I for example have a more Square shaped face with a square face you can actually draw
a straight vertical line from the cheekbones to the angle of the jawline here are some photos
of celebrities with a more Square shaped face but how do we Contour this face shape with fillers
well this is actually an attractive face shape for men but much less so for women what we actually
want to create is a less broad jawline and more volume in the Chic bones with fillers in this
way we create a more feminine face shape where a straight line can no longer be drawn between
the Chic bones and the angle of the jawline often the Mader muscles or jaw muscles are enlarged in
people with a square face and this can be treated with muscle relaxant to reduce these muscles and
narrow t
he jawline so that's something I still have to get done take for example Marco Robbie
a few years ago and now we see that Marco now has a much narrower face with a Slimmer jawline
and fewer fat pets while aging can contribute to the loss of fat pets it seems that there is more
at play here it is likely that Marco Robbie has undergone messeter Botox to narrow her jawline in
combination with a bual fat removal surgery the square face and aging what happens to the square
face as it ages and ho
w can we rejuvenate the face this face shape has a good structure at the bottom
of the face so we need to do less restoration with fillers there for Rejuvenation we will place
fillers more in the mid face mainly in the medial and lateral parts of the cheeks as this face shape
is prone to sagging sometimes it can also be nice to refine the chin a bit with fillers then we
have the hard- shaped face which is wide at the cheekbones and very narrow at the chin this face
shape is often considered
ideal for for a woman alongside the oval face shape because it is narrow
at the bottom which emphasizes femininity as men often have wider and larger lower faces than women
how can we Contour this face shape using fillers since this face shape is considered more ideal we
will Contour it less in a young face it is always possible to strengthen the lower part of the
face with jawline fillers or if the shin is very pointed or prominent we can use fillers here to
soften the chin aging of the h
eart-shaped face and how to rejuvenate the strength of the heart-shaped
face in aging is that they have a good structure in the midphase and since the lower part is narrow
they do not tend to sack like the round face shape for example for Rejuvenation it is good to treat
the cheeks and sometimes the jawline then we have the diamond shaped face which actually looks
a lot like the heart-shaped face with the only difference being that diamond shaped faces have
a narrower forehead making the Ch
ic area appear even wider in this photo you see celebrity with
a heart-shaped face and in this photo you see celebrities with a diamond shaped face do you see
the difference we will treat this face shape the same as a heart-shaped face shape however it is
important not to place too much filler in the lateral part of the cheekbones to ensure you do
not end up like Maleficent sometimes it may also be necessary to treat the temples or the pre- oric
area though the area in front of the ears so
that the face can appear softer next we will discuss
the oval face shape this is the face shape that is universally recognized as the most beautiful due
to its good proportions and symmetry as this face shape is very proportional in both upper middle
and lower parts of the face as it ages the oval face can become Square as the skin and fat from
the mid face sack and accumulate in the lower part of the face which can lead to sagging and loss of
facial Contour if we want to rejuvenate the fac
e we need to add extra vol volume through fillers
in the mid and lateral chics the area in front of the ear the pre oric areas and the temples to
prevent sagging we can also treat the jawline and shin to give more definition lastly we have the
oblong face shape these face shapes are similar to oval face shapes but are proportionally longer
than oval faces patients with this face shape can benefit from added volume to the leral part of
the face for more balance making them appear less sharp
and angular and more like an oval
face shape for example we can add volume to the temples and the pre- oricle area to conclude
this video I want to emphasize that the goal of injectables is to enhance someone's natural
beauty not to make them look like someone else as I have demonstrated earlier Beauty can be found
in all face shapes but in this video I just wanted to give some information on how you can slightly
improve the face shape and how face shapes Age and what approach is needed to
rejuvenate every face
requires is a personalized plan made just for you and I don't believe in cookie cutter treatments
where the same thing is done to everyone beauty is diverse and both makeup and injectables
