To find out the solution to a problem, we need to know the cause of the problem.... So what's the cause of low and high ipd?
Against the contrary believe on this forum ie the 'expansion' of the 'upper maxilla' is what increases ipd in itself is utter bullshit unless you have a genetic syndrome...
So what's the actual cause of low and high ipd?
The answer is chewing(this is the cause not the solution if you already wrote fuck mewjew and started to roast astro in the replies)
Lemme further explain how,
When you chew, among all the chewing muscles masseter is the one who has to the most of the work, when the masticatory process starts the muscles deliver tension at 3 places i.e. the body of the mandible, the zygomatic arches and the temples which causes the saggital development of chin,zygomas and the brow ridge respectively...how? When the masseters apply forces on all the three stated above, it causes microtears or some shit which in the end results with added bonemass (in the saggital plane) on the result locations stated above, so basically the actual increase/decrease in ipd isn't because the ''upper maxilla'' is too narrow or too wide, it actually depends on the saggital bone mass deposited on the front of the cheekbones.
But what's the proof?
Every lefort 3 surgery ends up increasing ipd of the patient from third person view, how? Because the cheekbones move forward on the saggital plane. For eg:
So what to do?
Low ipd- get your cheekbones repositioned forward or chew for next decade at least 3 hours a day...
High ipd- stop chewing a lot and get your cheekbones repositioned backwards.
Good luck finding any surgeon that does it tho
Also this wouldn't work if you have genetic disorder...
