Ive heard that from 20 to 15 there is no visible change for your face and that most changes occur under 15% bf
Is this true?
Also Ive been 2 weeks on a calorie deficit and its going good, but for some reason i only got first 2 abs, i guess i'll get the full 6 pack once i lean down.

You'll see a big change from 21% to 15% usually. If you don't you have poorly developed facial bones.

It depends on a lot of things like where your body stores fat, bone structure, etc.

Depends on fat distribution and bone structure

Most will start to look better at 12% but if you are lucky, 15% is when you start to look great

What if i have good bone structure
well then it depends on fat pads and where your body loses fat first. for most people, the body burns face fat last because its less metabolically active(like eyelid fat for example)

10 percent is perfect for facial aesthetics but honestly once you get past 15 and under you notice a slimmer face by every percent

Around 12 is when the face starts to look very good. And every percent you lose you look exponentially better than the previous percent you lost, but only if you retained most of your muscle mass.

ur facial fat pads express low levels of beta 2a receptors so they’re usually not as sensitive to catabolic stimuli as other regions, you cant just naturally get hollow cheeks sometimes no matter your BF, then you need surgical intervention, but usually at 10-12% BF.

well of course you need bonemass but to reveal your bone structure you need to remove the fat concealing underlying structure…

if you still arent facially lean at 10% BF you can do deoxycholic acid cocktails(like aqualyx,lipovela etc) for some regions like hyoid and malar,

but some regions will still require surgical removal such as the buccal.
