— Not only from the front, but even a casual side profile is beautiful —
Hello, everyone!
Natural and elegant rejuvenationpropose,plastic surgeonのMs. Aliceis.
Previously, I discussed nasal hyaluronic acid while presenting the golden ratio.
When we look in the mirror, we tend to focus only on the face directly in front of us.
But actually, the time spent being seen by others isProfileThe impression someone makes from the side—whether in photos, during conversation, or while walking—greatly influences perceptions of their sophistication and youthfulness.
In recent years, the concept of the "golden ratio of the profile" has gained attention. By adjusting the balance of bone structure and facial features, you can achieve a more harmonious look without drastic changes.Naturally beautiful and elegantcan be brought closer.
What is the golden ratio of the profile?
When discussing the beauty of a profile, the following metrics are often used:
・E-lineThe lips should lightly rest inside the line connecting the tip of the nose to the tip of the chin.
・Naso-labial angleThe angle between the nasal bridge and upper lip is approximately 90 to 100 degrees.
・The bridge of the noseDoes the area from the bridge of the nose to the tip form a smooth, natural curve?
・Position of the chin tip：Not too tight, not too loose, harmonizing with the face line
When these elements come together, the profile gains a three-dimensional and refined impression. What matters is not changes like "raising" or "sharpening," but rather...Overall balanceis.
Why Hyaluronic Acid is Ideal for Profile Design
Hyaluronic acid is an excellent treatment for achieving a profile that approaches the golden ratio.
・No scalpel required, with relatively minimal downtime
・Adjustable in millimeters for precise balance design
・"Addition-based rejuvenation that supplements what's lacking, not subtraction"
As bone and fat decrease with age, the area below the nose may appear elongated, or the mouth area may seem to protrude forward. Hyaluronic acid can address these issues.Loss of three-dimensionality due to agingcan naturally supplement it.
Primary areas accessible from the side profile
①Nose
Adjusting the height, angle, and tip orientation of the nose can soften the appearance of a protruding mouth and improve balance when viewed from the side. This area is also crucial for preventing nasolabial folds.
② Lips
Achieve a feminine, refined profile by adjusting the thickness and front-to-back position without adding excessive volume. The lips significantly influence the overall E-line impression.
③ Jaw
Adding moderate volume to the chin tip tightens the jawline and refines the E-line. This sharpens the entire profile, creating a point where "maturity" and "intellectual sophistication" stand out.
"Less is more" is the most beautiful.
The key to hyaluronic acid treatment for the profile is to harmonize the overall appearance.Achieving a result that blends seamlessly with the patient's face, so others won't even notice it's there—yet the patient's own satisfaction remains high.I believe it's about aiming for results.
The golden ratio is merely a guideline, so it's essential not to become overly fixated on it. Adjustments tailored to the individual's overall facial structure, age, and overall aura are indispensable. By enhancing their unique features, each person's inherent beauty truly shines through.
"I don't know what's missing," "I don't want to change my facial structure, but I somehow look older"—people who feel this way often find that reevaluating their profile can dramatically change their appearance.
Summary
Hyaluronic acid facial contouring achieves subtle rather than dramatic changes,Treatments that enhance your natural beautyNot only when facing someone directly, but even when you can feel confident in your profile during a fleeting moment, your expressions and demeanor will change.
First, start by objectively examining your own profile. Let's discover **your personal golden ratio** together.
