A large chin is a sign in men. Strong chin

The chin is located at the bottom of the face and is one of the main components that determines its shape. In turn, the shape of the chin depends on the lateral angle of the lower jaw and is determined by the degree of development of the base of the “mental triangle” - the elevation in the anterior part of the mental area (Fig. 43).

b- wide chin

If the angle of the lower jaw is more than 125 degrees and the “chin triangle” is sharp, the lower part of the face belongs to the narrow variants (triangular or oval). If the angle of the lower jaw is closer to straight (less than 125 degrees), then the chin belongs to the wide variants (rectangular or rounded) (Fig. 44).

The chin is separated from the lower lip by the chin-labial groove. This is a short and distinct depression, clearly visible in males.

The chin is separated from the chin area, located on the neck, under the lower jaw, between its base and the hyoid bone, by the mental groove. It passes under the edge of the lower jaw and conveys its transverse groove. This configuration is clearly visible in thin people and is almost always noticeable in older people, as well as with a slight tilt of the head. In older people, a fold forms, sometimes double, this is the so-called “double chin”. The chin is separated from the cheeks by a thin fold (mentiobuccal groove), which is slightly convex from the side. It may not be present at a young age, but becomes noticeable over time, especially in older people. In women and young people, the chin has a regular, convex, slightly rounded shape. In men, the chin is often massive, wide, flat and protruding.

On the convexity of the front surface of the chin there is often a dimple or a vertical groove. Their presence is associated with the direct adherence of the skin to the bone structure (Fig. 45c, d).

Rice. 45 Varieties of chins

Chins have their own characteristics based on race. The peoples of Australia have a wide, square chin, and the jaw protrudes slightly. Polynesians have a massive lower jaw and an upturned chin. In representatives of the Negroid race, the chin, unlike the lips, protrudes slightly, while in Mongoloids it is practically absent. The population of the American continent is characterized by a protruding, well-defined chin. For the peoples of the Mediterranean, there is also a protruding chin and a high lower jaw, like the inhabitants of England, Iceland, Denmark and the northern part of Germany. The peoples of the Iranian group have a low lower jaw, the inhabitants of Scandinavia have a pointed chin, a wide and low jaw. A low and narrow jaw, with an upturned and high chin, is characteristic of the Adriatic population. A small chin is typical among people in India and northeastern Africa.

The chin is important for facial expression and, according to physiognomists, a fleshy, full, wide, upturned and protruding chin is considered favorable. According to the Chinese, such a chin is a “gift from the gods,” and indicates increased sexuality and the unyielding will of its owner. A rectangular chin speaks of stubbornness, and a pointed chin speaks of inner kindness. A short, narrow and sloping chin is considered unfavorable. Favorable for women is a full, rounded, slightly protruding, and, preferably, cleft chin.

A tender, fleshy and rounded chin is a sign of sensuality and weakness, while small, unpointed chins are characteristic of timid people. A flattened chin accompanies a cold and dry nature, with refined feelings. A chin slanted backward suggests prudence, prudence and caution (Fig. 45e). A strongly protruding chin, as a rule, is characteristic of decisive, strong-willed and stubborn people, with inflated self-esteem (Fig. 45e).

A wide chin is a sign of pride, arrogance, and sometimes rudeness and cruelty (Fig. 45a); a sharp chin symbolizes the wit and some cunning of a person (Fig. 45b).

A flat, steep chin, according to physiognomists, indicates a cold-blooded phlegmatic person (Fig. 45g), a fleshy double chin (Fig. 45h) indicates a balanced, sensual life-lover who is not indifferent to food.

A rounded chin with a dimple is evidence of kindness and an adornment of Russian beauties from museums and art galleries (Fig. 45c).

Prudence and composure are revealed in a person with a deep vertical fold of the chin (Fig. 45d); such people tend to think through each action several steps ahead; they are reasonable, but prone to solitude.

The shape and type of the face is complemented by its lateral parts - cheeks. They are in proportional dependence with other parts of the face and determine its general configuration and constitutional type. Thus, sunken, lean cheeks are typical for melancholic people, while round-faced phlegmatic people are characterized by round ones. Smooth, beautifully contoured cheeks indicate a person’s sensuality, tenderness and generosity. Parallel folds on a young face when smiling are considered a sign of frivolity, but dimples on the cheeks, such as those of People’s Artist Vera Vasilyeva, characterize sociability, kindness, and a slight irony of the character of their owner.

Hair is not an element of the face, but it plays a big role in shaping not only the external appearance of the face and head, but also has a certain significance as a physiognomic feature. They can be hard and soft, straight and curly, curly and fluffy. The quality of hair is determined by genetic predisposition; it contains important information about a person’s life and largely reflects his destiny.

Depending on the type of carotene pigment they contain, they can be dark (brunettes), chestnut (brown-haired), blond (blond), light brown and, less often, red.

Back in the 12th-13th centuries, astrologers tried to determine a person’s character by their hair. In their opinion: smooth, soft, straight and blond hair is a sign of a timid and peace-loving person, and the owner of thick curly hair is a restless, simple-minded and wasteful person.

According to ancient Chinese and modern physiognomists, coarse hair indicates a violent temperament, and thin hair is a sign of softness. In China, those born with red hair are predicted to have an early death and bad luck in life, but the natural exception to this rule is dyed and permed hair.

Owners of straight, bright, soft and shiny hair are considered to be carriers of a favorable sign, but the color, type, thickness and condition of the hair must be considered from the point of view of ethnicity. Thus, residents of cold and temperate climates have predominantly blond hair, while people in the subtropical and tropical zones often have dark hair color. A modern physiognomist, the Italian A. Reposi, who has dark hair, nevertheless came to the conclusion that dark, straight, coarse and thick hair is characteristic of people who are not very spiritually developed, but who are hardworking and clean. Blonde hair, in his opinion, is more common in people with a gentle disposition (sanguine and phlegmatic people) and capable of learning.

Curly hair is considered a sign of increased sexuality, temperament and cunning of its owner, but they are sociable people and good conversationalists.

People with coarse hair, although they carry an unfavorable sign, are sincere, honest, open and not prone to deception.

In contrast to the existing idea of ​​the beauty of hair based on its thickness, from the point of view of physiognomists, sparse rather than thick hair is considered a favorable sign.

Hair type in men and women has a different combination of meanings that characterize human nature. Thus, men with dark straight hair have a commitment to order and the habit of relying only on their own strength. They are pedantic, but often boring. Men with dark curly hair lack cunning, are jealous, are not indifferent to the weaker sex and are temperamental. A person with such hair is often choleric or sanguine.

Women with dark straight hair are more temperamental than men and they change moods faster. A woman’s dark and curly hair reveals her stubbornness in achieving her goals, often using cunning.

Men with blond and straight hair are more phlegmatic by temperament. They are not characterized by impulsiveness and with a firm belief in the idea - they pursue it persistently, purposefully, and sometimes with fanaticism and cruelty. Such men are prone to pride and selfishness. Blonde wavy hair is characteristic of romantic natures. These curly-haired blondes easily get along with people, are the life of the party, but in addition to their charm, they have an eccentric character.

Women with blond and straight hair are considered spiritual and dreamy natures; they are slightly phlegmatic and often weak-willed. The precious frame of a beautiful face is light wavy hair, often belonging to delicate, romantic and easily vulnerable natures. Strong personalities, both male and female, are identified by light, thick and coarse hair.

At different times, red hair was considered a good, but more often an evil sign. In ancient times, because of their “devilish devilry” and supposedly witchcraft powers, red-haired girls with curly hair ended up at the stake. Nowadays, this is a sign of increased attention not only to the unusual hair color, but also to the inherent strong-willed qualities and extraordinary mentality of their owners.

A characteristic feature of red-haired men is their good nature and shyness, but in combination with thin lips and a hooked nose, they appear to be malicious and cunning people.

If it is necessary to change their appearance, and sometimes the entire way of their previous life, women begin these changes with their hair: changing its color, length, styling. This fact proves the influence and significance of the external “crown” of the face on its configuration, proportions, expressiveness and perception. The most beautiful wig on a mannequin’s head cannot be compared in perception to a similar hairstyle of a girl beaming with happiness, expressing her inner sublime state.

It is believed that long, flowing hair is worn by romantic, dreamy people, tied into a ponytail - purposeful and energetic. Sentimentality and some coquetry are revealed by long, curled hair.

Pretentious and intricate hairstyles are preferred by girls who do not want to put up with the routine of life, who love variety and want to stand out.

Girls prefer short haircuts to a sporty style of clothing, and men hide their conservatism with a short haircut combed back or to the right side. A clear parting emphasizes strength of character, prudence and caution.

Artistic “chaos” on the head and tousled hair reveal the cheerful disposition of a good-natured guy, and a crew cut indicates a stubborn guy.

Long hair on the head is characteristic of spiritualized individuals, and hair gathered at the back of the head in a bun is characteristic of arrogant men prone to narcissism.

It should be noted that the main purpose of the hairstyle is to give the face proportionality, expressiveness, and attractiveness, but it should not distract from the perception of especially beautiful parts of the face and smooth out visual imperfections. Skillful hair styling can hide a girl’s high forehead, wide or elongated face configuration, smooth out a protruding chin or sloping forehead.

With age, the volume, color, density and condition of the hair on the head changes, gray hair and baldness appear. In Chinese physiognomy, signs of thick hair and early baldness are considered unfavorable. The reason for these changes is the aging of the endocrine system and changes in the production of sex hormones. The first signs of graying appear on the beard, mustache or temples at the age of 40-45, by the age of 50 the scalp hair turns gray, and at the age of 60-80 - the eyebrows. Gray hair is formed as a result of the disappearance of pigment and the appearance of air bubbles.

Limited vegetation is characteristic only of humans; in other mammals, the entire head is covered with hair. A person has clear boundaries, the so-called hair growth lines - on the forehead and in the lower part of the occipital region. The skin on which hair grows is divided into two areas - central and peripheral. The latter is located in the form of a crown, the contour of which is determined by the hairline. Its shape is purely individual: in front the contour can be almost rectangular, concave, convex towards the forehead (more common in women), it can consist of two halves, and be far from the forehead, it can have the shape of the letter “M”.

On each side of the head, the hairline is a curve bent forward, encircling the temple, the auricle and reaching the mastoid process of the temporal bone. In men, in a short area in front of the ear, the hair may join the beard. In women, hair does not grow beyond the zygomatic arches (Fig. 46).

Rice. 46 Hair growth zone in men

It is estimated that there are approximately 100,000 hairs on the head of an adult man (blonds have more), that is, there are about 300 hairs on every square centimeter. The lifespan of hair is from 3 to 5 years, and depends on race, gender, individual characteristics and health status. Having reached a certain length (hair grows by 10-20 centimeters per year), the hair loses its vitality and the bulb atrophies. The old hair falls out and new hair begins to form in the same follicle.

Final hair loss (baldness) is a consequence of heredity and hormonal disorders. Racial characteristics also play an important role: for example, representatives of the Negroid and Mongoloid races are practically not at risk of baldness.

Rice. 47 Stages of baldness (Hamilton scale)

The beginning of the appearance of bald patches from the forehead is considered a favorable sign among the Chinese, and from the center of the head (crown) is considered an unfavorable sign.

Facial hair (mustache and beard) is largely determined by gender and race. In men, its presence is considered a secondary sexual characteristic. Representatives of the Caucasian race, compared to dark-skinned and yellow-skinned people, have more abundant hair and are characteristic of the cheeks, chin and area above the upper lip (mustache). Hair growing on the ears with age is considered a sign of longevity and intelligence, but not a sign of perseverance. A beard is a symbol of masculinity, and the tougher it is, the sexier and more energetic the man.

The lateral surfaces of the face determine the cheekbones, angles of the lower jaw and cheeks, which in turn determines the shape of the person’s face and head (Fig. 48).

Rice. 48 Face Shapes

Expressiveness zygomatic bones, like the narrow shape of the eyes, are characteristic of the Mongoloid race and some East Asian peoples. In ancient China, cheekbones were considered “bones of strength and power” and served as an indicator of the level of power. By their expression, a person’s power qualities and the level of a person’s political, military and financial abilities were judged.

The cheeks occupy the lateral parts of the face, have a plastic structure and consist of three layers: skin, subcutaneous and muscle. The overall configuration of the face depends on the degree of their expression and development.

In people of normal build, the cheeks have a regular, slightly convex shape. In overweight people they are fleshy, in thin people, on the contrary, they are sunken in the middle part; the contrast with the clearly defined outlines of the cheekbone and lower jaw is clearly visible.

The contour of the zygomatic bone depends on individual and racial characteristics. High and prominent cheekbones give the face a flat appearance. In obese people, adipose tissue smoothes out the contours of the cheekbones. In older and thin people, the cheekbones stand out noticeably; this impression is reinforced by the depression in the area of ​​the canine fossa.

The nasomental fold, which appears to a greater or lesser extent when smiling and laughing, connects the side surface of the nose with the cheek; it runs along the wing of the nose in an oblique downward and sideways direction. Its depth is individual, but on a moving face it becomes constant over time.

In older people, additional folds and grooves may appear, which is associated with loss of skin elasticity and age-related changes in the subcutaneous layer. They can go along or across the main folds: nasolabial, chin-labial and chin.

The zygomatic arch runs in a horizontal direction: from the zygomatic bone to the tragus and temporomandibular joint and determines the width of the face. In ancient China it was called “horse bone,” and the owners of such bones were predicted to have longevity and great military and state power. Prominent representatives of these prophecies were: Chiang Kai-shek and Deng Xiaoping. In obese and young people it is not noticeable, but in thin and elderly people it is clearly outlined.

The posterior section of the cheek imperceptibly passes into the ear-maxillary region, which has a rectangular shape. At the top it is limited by the zygomatic arch, at the back - the posterior edge of the branch of the lower jaw, at the bottom - the base of the lower jaw, near the cheek - the anterior edge of the masticatory muscle.

The skin covering the face, compared to the skin of other parts of the body, is thinner, but firm and elastic. Skin color depends on the presence of the coloring pigment melanin and is divided into three types: light, medium and dark. Each type has pinkish, light brown, yellowish shades; on average - olive yellow and in the dark type - variants of brown and reddish shades. There are achromatic (colorless) and chromatic (color) colors. All colors differ from each other in lightness, tone, saturation, and are divided into warm - with an admixture of yellowness (the color of fire) and cold - with an admixture of blue (the color of ice). The color tone depends on the skin texture, which reflects the light flux differently and affects the color perception of the face. The relief of the skin is determined by the number and size of the excretory ducts of the sebaceous and sweat glands and the mouths of the hair follicles. According to these characteristics, porous, slightly porous and smooth skin is distinguished. Smooth skin reflects more light and is perceived as lighter, porous skin scatters light and is perceived as darker.

If in the art of face reading the forehead is the sky, then the chin is the earth. Look closely at the chin if you want to know what a person's life will be like in their old age. It is he who hides the secrets of time.

A Chinese proverb says: a beautifully rounded, smooth chin indicates a prosperous old age. By the chin you can learn about performance, endurance and vitality, that is, about the method and course of action with which a person copes with the demands of life until death.

The chin gives us general information about how things are going with physical and mental strength, whether there will be enough energy reserves until old age and, finally, whether it will be possible to maintain the joy of life. An ideal chin is said to describe an even arc, being neither angular nor round. In addition, the chin should not dominate the face; all parts of the face should be in harmony.

Round chin

A person with a round chin has a strong sense of family and an even, friendly temperament. He has a positive influence on others. In controversial cases, he is excellent as a peacemaker. These people willingly take responsibility for the work they do and have high moral principles. They should under no circumstances be called ambitious.

Round chin

They seem to lack purposeful career planning. However, their career starts quite early. Communication skills almost always bring them success at work. Women with a round chin are considered to be emphatically emotional and willing to work for their family. In China they say: women with round chins are fertile. Erotically, they are easy to satisfy: acrobatic exercises are not for them. Most of all, they are concerned with the happiness of their children and prosperity in the home; family happiness often becomes the center of their lives. The prospect of being surrounded by a dozen grandchildren in old age is the dream of a woman with a round chin.

Pointed chin

People with sharp chins are highly intelligent, but they are overly sensitive and prone to mood swings. They are said to love to gossip and have a penchant for treachery.

The worst thing that can happen to such a person is loneliness. This fickle character requires constant movement and an audience to satisfy his great need for communication. Often these people also have the ability to perceive the supersensible. Relying on this gift, they can sometimes benefit themselves.

Pointed chin

Professionally, they are not only excellent workers, but also have the ability to make decisions quickly. If women with sharp chins achieve heights in social activities, then men with this type of chin are distinguished by outstanding technical abilities. Women and men with this chin shape sometimes experience difficulties in their personal lives; they cannot cope with their own feelings. This leads to misunderstandings, for example, someone with a sharp chin, due to his gullibility, sees more in flirting than it actually is. Women with sharp chins often have excellent vocal abilities, which is especially admired by men. However, these ladies are gullible and enthusiastic, they are ready to rush headlong into a marriage, the stability of which is highly doubtful.

Wide chin

This strong chin indicates a correct, honest person who has great self-confidence and finds satisfaction in work. Everything he starts is completed. A wide chin seems to have inexhaustible reserves of energy. Business and social success of these people is a matter of course.

Their sense of justice brings them a lot of sympathy. There are also envious people here. Negative traits: pronounced stubbornness and tendency to aggression. True, these character traits appear, as experience shows, only in rare cases.

Wide chin

Such people defend their honor very decisively, in this case the jokes stop instantly. The palette of their feelings is varied - from a pronounced protective instinct to deep love for their own children and the ability to sympathize with others, but in relation to their partner they often cannot show their feelings, perhaps for fear of losing control over themselves.

If ever a man with a broad chin is deceived by his mistress, he will be consistent to the end and will never forgive such an insult.

Angular chin

Looking at a man with an angular chin, one can immediately say that he is a fighter, energetic and active, sometimes even prone to bitterness and rudeness. This character cannot tolerate defeat. Such a person never forgets disrespect and insults, because he can be incredibly vindictive. People with this chin shape are unlikely to rush headlong into their professional or personal life, but will act, as a rule, according to a carefully developed plan. But it is known that life does not always go according to plan, and sometimes brings surprises. Despite his vitality, a person with an angular chin does not feel the joy of being. His penchant for exaggerated discipline makes him a dry pedant. He lacks flexibility for full communication.

Angular chin

If the energy and fighting spirit of such a person are directed in the wrong direction, then he can easily end up in a criminal environment. Criminals involved in criminal cases in the economy and even rapists often have this chin shape.

People with angular chins like to live large. If, unexpectedly, they ever find themselves in tight financial circumstances, they will never admit their misfortune, but rather write a bad check. A love affair can easily turn into chaos for them due to a series of misunderstandings. They were not born to love and be loved. Because of their rude manners, a possible partner would rather run away than go to bed. Women of this type usually dominate in a partnership, and not by choice, the main role is simply imposed on them by fate. But experience proves that they can be satisfied with this situation.

Protruding chin

This predominantly male chin shape indicates great self-confidence, sometimes excessive self-confidence and aggressiveness. Having a strong will, the owner of such a chin can channel negative character traits into a favorable direction. Success accompanies such a person very early. He is considered a born entrepreneur or manager. Often these people have a special sense of language, which helps them achieve leadership positions in the service.

Their restless nature poses a danger to both their business and personal lives. They may suddenly quit a good job and do something completely different, for example, choose a profession related to the arts. It is worth noting that they often have a pronounced creative talent and know how to make friends.

Protruding chin

They hardly need to worry about their physical health. Their physical strength and strong physique tend to be a source of envy. Women with prominent chins are considered to be very career-oriented and are blessed with conspicuous, beautiful breasts. They have a reliable instinct in finding the right man who can satisfy their varied needs.

Women in science typically experience financial difficulties. But if they have enough money, they scatter it left and right, although some of them are as poor as church mice.

Long chin

A long chin indicates a very emotional, often mentally unstable person. Due to their innate instability of character, they are sometimes prone to gambling. When they are overcome by excitement, they are capable of uncontrollable risks.

Surprisingly, people with long chins always seem to have money, and it is unclear whether they got it legally. But their wealth can be used by others. Positive traits: organizational talent and the ability to make friends. Professionally, they do not strive to achieve leadership positions, as they are completely devoid of vanity. But thanks to their brilliant abilities, they often occupy a high position.

Long chin

Happiness, which does not always accompany them in the game, they find in abundance in love. Women and men with this chin shape can be very affectionate towards their partner. They usually enjoy a lot of attention from the opposite sex. Their vibrant love life can compensate for some of the difficulties in their lives.

Slanted chin

People with sloping chins, according to SiangMing, do not have much ambition, so career advancement is not the most important thing in life for them. However, they are very popular because of their peaceful nature. Their interests are mainly focused on creating as peaceful a life for themselves as possible.

Slanted chin

The period between 35 and 50 years can be very turbulent, and blows of fate are possible. They must reckon with a dramatic turn in their lives. The problems that arise can be solved by these people only when they learn to overcome their passivity, indifference and energetically fight for happiness.

Cleft chin

People with cleft chins captivate with their passion for adventure, and it seems that they are constantly waiting for a new challenge from fate. Cheerful in disposition and balanced, they have the image of good comrades. This assessment fully corresponds to reality.

Ambition and panache are alien to these people, although they enjoy being the center of attention. They undoubtedly enjoy the sympathy of others, so they rarely appear alone. Such people enter into numerous relationships, and each time they fall deeply and seriously in love. They know how to enjoy love and sex with their beloved (beloved). But you should not expect loyalty from them. The constant search for perfect happiness makes them tireless. They seem to be full of boundless vitality, which helps them maintain spiritual youth into old age.

Cleft chin

30 years, 60, 65 and 75 years are the most eventful years in the lives of these individuals. Success in professional activities (both men and women) is facilitated by their attractive appearance. But they must show their readiness to achieve something themselves. If there is a dimple in the middle of the cleft chin, then this person, according to interpreters, has a more serious character. In love, he will be lucky to find a permanent and reliable partner. However, occasional betrayals on his part are not excluded, but this will not lead to a quick break in the relationship.

Double chin

Regarding the double chin, SiangMing says: late happiness, after 60 years - double happiness. A double chin is a predominantly female chin shape. It is not difficult to assume that these people know how to enjoy life, especially food. They can withstand extremely heavy workloads and skillfully conduct dialogue in discussions. Obviously, their cheerful nature is appreciated, as their company is always welcome. Surprisingly, people with double chins sometimes have a passionate temperament.

Double chin

Men with this chin shape often have a penchant for unusual professions, but in any case they show a special talent for earning a lot of money. However, accumulating wealth does not satisfy these people. They can be unusually generous and easily part with money.

General information

The chin plays an important role in shaping the correct oval of the face. Small, underdeveloped chin usually caused by congenital defects in the structure of the lower jaw, less often by post-traumatic or postoperative consequences. With a small, sloping chin, the lower jaw smoothly passes into the neck, while there is no clear jawline. They also talk about a small chin if its size and shape do not correspond to the proportions of the forehead, nose and cheekbones.

A beautiful person’s face should have harmoniously developed, clearly defined features. High cheekbones and a slightly protruding chin are considered one of the signs of a proportional, balanced face. A seemingly small flaw - a small or sloping chin - can spoil the overall picture and turn a beautiful, pretty face into an unattractive one. And by eliminating this drawback, you can radically change a person’s appearance.

The shape of the chin depends on the position of the lateral angle of the lower jaw and is determined by the severity of the “mental triangle” - the protrusion in the front of the chin area. It is believed that the height of an ideal chin is equal to half the height of the lower 1/3 of the face. The jawline should be clearly but smoothly defined.

In younger people, the problem may be a weak, small or sloping chin. This can be determined as follows: look from the side at the tilted head and conditionally draw two lines - a horizontal one passing through the ear canal and the lower edge of the orbit and a vertical one through the deepest point at the root of the nose. If the chin does not protrude beyond the vertical line, this is a sign of underdevelopment of the chin (microgenia). It is also important to assess the patient’s bite (chin augmentation is most recommended for microgenia with a normal or almost normal bite).

In older patients, there is thinning and atrophy of soft tissues, loss of bone tissue (in particular, between the lateral parts of the lower jaw and the chin), and a premaxillary groove may appear. In this case, chin plastic surgery (including endoprosthetics) is necessary to improve the configuration of the lower jaw and give the face a more youthful appearance.

Methods for correcting a small chin

Thanks to modern technology, plastic surgery uses safe methods for correcting underdeveloped small chins and poorly defined cheekbones, intended for both women and men. Chin plastic surgery is called mentoplasty. Surgeries to enlarge the cheekbones and (or) chin are carried out for aesthetic reasons, helping to form a correct, proportional facial profile, making it more attractive and expressive. It is especially important to correct these areas in the presence of congenital and post-traumatic deformities.

There are several ways to correct a small chin, cheekbones, and oval face.

Correction of a small chin using bone grafting involves either building up the patient’s own lower jaw bone or extending the chin by installing miniature plates (for example, titanium). In the future, the metal structures can be left or removed at the request of the patient. This way you can change the size of the chin, move it forward, make it visually larger than it was before. This chin augmentation is safer than placing silicone implants in soft tissues, since there are no reactions of rejection of foreign materials and the likelihood of implant migration. An incision no larger than 4 cm is made in the oral cavity (in the fold between the mucous membrane of the lower teeth and the lower lip), it is completely invisible and heals well.

Plastic surgery for a small chin may involve a combination of bone grafting and liposculpture (chin liposuction). It is possible to create an individual chin at the request of the patient. In some cases, chin augmentation can be recommended when performing a circular facelift or neck lift.

Small chin augmentation using endoprosthetics (using implants) has been performed for more than 40 years. Currently, the popularity of this procedure has increased significantly. To assess the desired result in advance, it is possible to use preliminary sketches in photographs or computer modeling. The surgeon, together with the patient, selects an implant that is suitable in shape and size.

Endoprosthesis replacement of the cheekbones and chin is carried out with safe facial implants made of non-biological material (silicone, porous polyethylene) or bioimplants (based on cartilage tissue). Bioimplants are modeled individually by the surgeon during the operation. The implant can be inserted through 3-4 cm long incisions in the fold of the oral mucosa or in the skin fold under the lower jaw. When accessing for implantation through the oral cavity, traces of the operation are invisible.

Through the incision, the periosteum is detached in the area of ​​the chin and along the edge of the lower jaw, according to the size of the implant. The side parts of the implant enter the subperiosteal tunnels and fit quite tightly to the bone without moving anywhere. Sometimes the implant is additionally fixed with sutures to the periosteum. After the operation, an elastic bandage is applied.

It is possible to enlarge a small chin using the non-surgical method of lipofilling. Correction of the chin area (also cheekbones, cheeks) in this case is carried out using cells from the patient’s own adipose tissue.

Chin surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia. Small chin augmentation can be combined with other corrective procedures: rhinoplasty, forehead and face lift.

The rehabilitation period after chin correction lasts several weeks. For several days after surgery, the chin area will feel sore, numb and somewhat unnatural, and slight swelling may occur. If the incision was made in the oral cavity, then it is better to refrain from eating solid food for a week. You can brush your teeth gently the next day. It is necessary to regularly rinse your mouth with an antiseptic solution prescribed by your doctor.

In the oral cavity, the threads gradually dissolve on their own; with an external incision, the sutures are removed after a week. You are prescribed to wear an elastic bandage to fix the chin for two weeks. It is recommended to avoid sports and physical activity for a month after surgery.

The cosmetic effect of mentoplasty depends on the individual regenerative abilities of the body. It can be finally assessed 3-6 months after surgery.


If you like a man, but you doubt whether you should start a relationship with him or not, in this case, physiognomy will become an indispensable assistant for you - the science through which you can determine character traits by appearance. By the eyes and the shape of the chin, you can identify a romantic, a strong personality or an infantile type, who will remain a little boy even at 40 years old. Of course, it is impossible to get a complete picture of a person’s character by analyzing only his appearance, but this is not our goal. We will limit ourselves to the basic characteristics that will help you decide whether to meet a man or not.

Eye color

Green-eyed men are possessive and jealous, but very hardworking and always strive to achieve their goals.

Blue-eyed people are constantly searching for themselves, so they can change their occupation quite often, and they can move mountains for the sake of a loved one.

Gray-eyed representatives of the stronger sex look for benefits in everything, close relationships with a woman can be no exception; these are pragmatic partners, lucky.

Brown-eyed people are a little frivolous and flighty, but with age they usually make settled and faithful partners.

Brows

Owners of wide and thick eyebrows are usually generous; such a partner will not skimp on gifts.

If the eyebrows meet on the bridge of the nose, then this is a man who really appreciates and loves his mother. Therefore, for a long and harmonious relationship with him, you will simply need to find a common language with his parent. Among men with fused eyebrows there are quite a lot of henpecked men.

If a man’s eyebrows are too thick, and they literally hang over his eyes, this means that you are looking at an adventurer who is used to getting what he wants, and he is unlikely to take your interests into account.

If the eyebrows are narrow and not thick, their owner has a soft character, he is modest and may even be complex. You shouldn’t expect decisive action from such a man.

Stubborn people, leaders and strong personalities have straight noses. If you are ready to unconditionally accept the leadership of such a man, it makes sense for you to consider him as a partner.

Eagle noses are popular with women, but their owners are cunning and often cruel. These are sexy and attractive men, but quite distrustful in relationships. These are not easy partners.

Snub-nosed men are emotional and vulnerable in nature; money does not stay with them because of their innocence and impulsiveness. In general, if you are ready for constant changes in your relationship, this is your man.

A sharp and thin nose reveals a romantic and subtle nature; this man will fill your relationship with tenderness, but he is unlikely to be able to solve any problem when it arises.

If a man has a potato nose, he is a cheerful fellow, the life of the party, a little frivolous and flighty.

Upturned noses speak of temperamental partners living with momentary desires, but a nose with flaring nostrils indicates an amorous and lively nature.

Cheekbones

A man with high cheekbones is power-hungry, in communication he is used to dictating his terms, he has a complex character.

Low cheekbones, on the contrary, indicate a lack of will and courage. Such a partner will preserve the family until the last, and in most cases, in such a couple the leader is a woman.

If the cheekbones are not high and not low, then before you is a man who embodies both willpower and strength of character, and at the same time modesty and the ability to compromise.

Dimples on the cheeks indicate good nature and the ability to rejoice; with such a man you will never be bored.

Lips

The situation with lips is exactly the same as with cheekbones; you need a “golden mean”.

Lips that are too thin indicate cautious, dogmatic people; if the corners are also downturned, then you have a pessimist and a whiner.

Too full lips indicate soft men, sometimes infantile, for whom a woman should play the role of a mother.

But lips of medium size, with clearly defined corners, not too plump, but not thin either, indicate strong, strong-willed individuals who usually achieve their goals. With such a man you will be like behind a stone wall.

Chin

This part of the face attracts the same attention as the nose. Women like men with strong chins and this is absolutely justified.

A well-defined chin really indicates willpower and the ability to achieve your goals.

Men with a square chin have determination and a strong character.

A protruding chin occurs in cunning, intelligent and sharp-tongued people.

An expressionless chin indicates that the man is most likely weak-willed and you can twist ropes out of him.

The shape of the ears can also tell a lot about a person's character.

Powerful and even cruel men have large, fleshy ears.

Pointed upwards are a sign of intelligence and prudence.

The owner of tightly pressed ears is cold-blooded and cunning.

Perhaps the most ideal ones are ears close to the quadrangle; the owners of such ears are noble, kind and firm in their decisions.

Men with long ears are stingy and envious, and protruding ears indicate simplicity and frivolity.

Surely you remember from books that when describing heroes, authors often draw the reader’s attention to the chin of their characters: “strong-willed,” “solid,” “outstanding,” etc.

For example, d'Artagnan from The Three Musketeers had an elongated chin and a “developed lower jaw,” which, according to Alexandre Dumas, testified to the hero’s keen mind and cunning.

But let's return to the people who really surround us. Let us make a reservation once again and remind you: character can only be determined by the facial features that a person “got” by nature. If, for example, the chin is bent as a result of injury (say, the lower jaw has been displaced), you should not use it to determine the character of its owner; a mistake is inevitable.

This is a testament to the wit and cunning of man.

The ability to “cover one's tracks” is often accompanied by a penchant for adventurism. A most interesting personality! It is possible that such a person somewhat frightens you, but at the same time you cannot deny the attractiveness of this person.

Such people love to tease their friends. In newspapers and magazines, they first of all look for columns with anecdotes and gags, and the first of April is precisely the day when they get an excellent opportunity to “unfold” with all their might, showing all their talents as wits and ringleaders. However, they are capable of laughing literally without a break, which is why many people really like to communicate with them.

It is quite possible that the owner of a sharp chin is an experienced intriguer who feels pleasure when he manages to trick someone around his finger or lead someone by the nose. This mainly applies to guys.

But a girl with such a chin is a person “on her own mind” who knows exactly what she wants. She seems to listen carefully to the advice and instructions of her elders or friends, but then she still does everything in her own way.

The person is most likely a cold-blooded pragmatist. These people have a penchant for exact sciences, and their knowledge in this area is truly deep.

Both boys and girls of this type are characterized by prudence. Their desire to benefit from everything often worsens relationships with others. They rarely have close friends, although in search of the “right people” they, as a rule, easily make numerous acquaintances.

However, practicality in moderation is a wonderful quality that helps you emerge victorious from many situations.

If you are romantic and dreamy, communicating with such people will most likely bring you a lot of disappointments; their cold mind and pragmatic thinking will probably not be close to you. Although it is possible that a relationship of the “ice and fire” type will suit both you and the person with a flat chin. Think for yourself.

Fleshy or double chin.

If one of your peers already has such a wonderful chin, you can ask whether its owner likes to eat. You'll see, food is probably almost the main pleasure in his life.

But, however, do not judge a person so unambiguously. A chubby chin is rarely a congenital feature of a person or associated with an exorbitant appetite. Very often, the reasons for the appearance of a double chin are not associated with gluttony. Often the owners of this not very attractive detail of appearance are people whose work involves reading or, say, checking notebooks, any work in which a person often has to lower his head. Perhaps a person with a double chin simply spends a lot of time reading books or, say, sewing.

In addition, people with a plump chin are extremely sensual and are true lovers of life. They receive sincere pleasure from all earthly joys.

And who said that it is bad to enjoy life as it is?

It is believed that a neat chin speaks of a person’s timidity and modesty and his dislike of being the center of everyone’s attention. Modesty, of course, suits a girl: the opposite sex usually has a desire to patronize such a cutie.

However, it often happens that shyness plays a cruel joke: due to your catastrophic shyness and reluctance to be the center of attention, you will remain in the shadows. It is sometimes difficult for others to see the best qualities of such a person, kindness and the ability to sympathize with others.

If a guy has such a chin, and you can be called a decisive person, then perhaps you will not be able to find a common language. Of course, timidity does not really suit a representative of the strong half of humanity, and weakness, even more so. However, don't judge too harshly! Perhaps this person is a typical romantic, secretly writing wonderful poems and keeping a diary, each page of which is full of bright hopes and wise thoughts.

If you have been to museums or art galleries, you have probably seen how such a chin adorns the faces of Russian beauties. A soft, round chin with a dimple is evidence of inexhaustible kindness. In the big, warm heart of this person there is a place for everyone, from a loved one to a little sparrow or an abandoned kitten.

It is quite possible for a girl and a young man of this type to confide their secrets, being sure that they will all remain only between you.

People with this chin shape love to patronize others and are often capable of self-sacrifice without any show or self-admiration. Realizing the need to help someone, they simply do it, without any conditions.

Anyone who has this type of chin is a reasonable and cool-blooded person. Logical thinking is very well developed in him. He thinks through every action several steps ahead. In addition, he always relies only on himself.

Brave, reasonable and decisive, this person does not need the advice of others.

A philosophical mindset allows such a person to easily endure life’s difficulties, and not because he is inclined to look through rose-colored glasses. On the contrary, he assesses reality very soberly, realizes that life is not an eternal holiday, and is ready to accept it.

A girl with this type of chin is most likely a rational person, she is not impulsive and when making decisions she is guided not by emotions, but by common sense, she does everything with feeling, sense, and planning.

These people make excellent housewives. You can be sure that the girl will perfectly cope with all household chores without outside help.

And one more note.

It is believed that a person whose chin is very cleft is prone to solitude. This is a typical “loner hero” who believes that finding a soul mate is very difficult, and what’s difficult is simply impossible.

However, the loneliness of this person, as a rule, does not depress him. He feels very good, spending the evening in almost complete solitude from the outside world. Books or a set of favorite audio recordings can provide him with excellent company (as a rule, such people are passionate about music).

Most likely, the owner of such a chin is a proud, arrogant, and sometimes cruel, rude person. Of course, self-esteem is an excellent quality of character, but when it goes beyond reasonable boundaries, it already greatly harms the person in the eyes of others. Such a person has few friends; only the most persistent and faithful remain, who are able to tolerate his arrogance.

A girl with such a chin is too demanding of others. Seeing herself as a role model, she considers everyone around her to not deserve her special attention. Very often this prevents her from truly getting close to good people (although in most cases she does not realize this).

As for life priorities, we can say with a high degree of confidence that such people are always looking for that “niche” that will allow them to advance, stand out from others and once again prove their exclusivity.

Their desire for leadership is very strong.

The common traits of those with such a chin are prudence and caution.

Most likely, a young man with this type of chin carefully weighs every step he is going to take. Any of his statements is weighty and significant, being prudent and careful, he carefully selects them so as not to inadvertently offend anyone. His diplomacy is worthy of all respect.

As for a girl with this type of chin, she most likely values ​​peace and harmony. Sometimes it seems that she is too calm, although in fact she cares about a lot and does not leave her indifferent.

Because of her innate tendency to be cautious, such a girl sometimes “changes masks,” and not everyone is given the opportunity to see her true face, the face of an impulsive and not very self-confident person.

Prudence makes such people strive to avoid quarrels by any means. For conflicting parties, they act as reconciling mediators. People are drawn to them because they are able to find the good in everything.

At the same time, their caution often turns into real reinsurance. They shroud their lives in a web of mystery because they do not want to be intruded upon by those they believe cannot understand them.

Such people prefer a measured life. As a rule, they are not looking for leadership, because if you are not in the public eye, no one will know what kind of person you are, keeping your secret is guaranteed. At the same time, they love a change of activity, this is another reason to create a new image.

As a rule, it is believed that those with such a chin are very determined and strong-willed people. However, often their persistence goes to the extreme, turning into outright stubbornness.

Usually these are active people who try to achieve the goal they set for themselves in any way, and realize their desires one hundred percent.

A heavy, strongly protruded chin indicates that its owner is characterized by inflated self-esteem. The self-esteem of such a person is so high that he categorically denies that he has any weaknesses or shortcomings.

It is quite possible that in his soul he realizes that he is not without sin, but more than anything else he is afraid to show it.
