All of us have experienced, at some point, the feeling of not receiving the same level of attention or affection we give to others, and physical appearance can play a role in that perception. This can be difficult to process, especially when it feels outside of our control.
In this thread, I will outline specific facial structural traits often discussed in aesthetic analysis, along with potential corrective approaches through surgical intervention “hardmaxxing”, based on my own observations and considerations.
1.Upper Eyelid Exposure (UEE)
Excessive visibility of the upper eyelid platform when the eyes are in a neutral position. This is often caused by a combination of eyebrow position, orbital structure, and soft tissue distribution. High-set brows or a lack of soft tissue support around the orbit can make the eyes appear more “exposed” and less deep-set.
Fix: Upper blepharoplasty / brow repositioning
Upper blepharoplasty removes redundant skin and, if necessary, a small amount of fat from the upper eyelid to reduce visible lid space. In cases where brow position is the primary cause, a brow repositioning procedure adjusts the eyebrow to a more optimal anatomical level. The result is a reduced eyelid platform and a more compact, deep-set orbital appearance.
2.Negative Canthal Tilt
A condition where the lateral canthus (outer corner of the eye) is positioned lower than the medial canthus (inner corner). This creates a downward slant to the palpebral fissure and is associated with a less alert or fatigued appearance.
Fix: Lateral canthoplasty / canthopexy
These procedures involve tightening and repositioning the lateral canthal tendon. Canthopexy provides support without fully detaching the tendon, while canthoplasty allows for more significant repositioning. The goal is to elevate the lateral canthus to achieve a neutral or slightly positive tilt, improving eye shape and perceived alertness.
3.Recessed Chin (Retrogenia)
A posteriorly positioned chin relative to the lips and nasal tip, often assessed in profile analysis. It disrupts lower facial balance and can make the nose appear more prominent while weakening overall facial projection.
Fix: Sliding genioplasty / chin implant
Sliding genioplasty involves a controlled osteotomy of the mandibular symphysis, allowing the chin segment to be advanced and fixed in a new position. This provides a permanent, skeletal correction. Chin implants, typically made of silicone or porous materials, are placed over the existing bone to enhance projection. Both approaches improve lower facial harmony and profile balance.
4.Weak Jawline (Mandibular Deficiency)
Insufficient definition or projection of the mandibular body and angle. This may result from skeletal underdevelopment, soft tissue excess, or both. It reduces contrast between the jaw and neck, especially in lateral view.
Fix: Mandibular implants / orthognathic surgery
Mandibular implants augment the gonial angle and jaw body, increasing width and definition. In more severe skeletal discrepancies, orthognathic surgery (such as bilateral sagittal split osteotomy) repositions the mandible forward. This enhances structural definition and improves both aesthetic and functional alignment.
5.Long Midface (Vertical Maxillary Excess or Midface Disproportion)
An increased vertical distance between the infraorbital region and the upper lip. This can be due to skeletal factors (maxillary overgrowth) or soft tissue proportions. It often leads to a less compact and less balanced facial appearance.
Fix: Le Fort I osteotomy
This orthognathic procedure allows surgeons to reposition the maxilla in three dimensions. In cases of vertical excess, the maxilla can be impacted (moved upward), reducing midface height. This shortens the central facial third and improves overall proportional balance.
6.Under-Eye Hollowing (Tear Trough Deformity)
A concave depression extending from the medial canthus along the infraorbital rim. It is caused by volume loss, ligamentous structure, and shadowing effects, often giving a fatigued or aged appearance.
Fix: Fat grafting / hyaluronic acid fillers / lower blepharoplasty
Fillers or autologous fat transfer restore lost volume and smooth the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek. In cases involving fat herniation or excess skin, lower blepharoplasty repositions or removes fat and tightens the area. The goal is a smoother, more continuous contour.
DISCLAIMER
I don’t personally endorse or promote any of these procedures. Surgical intervention always carries risks, both physically and psychologically, and outcomes can vary significantly. Any decision to pursue this path should be made carefully, with proper medical consultation and a clear understanding of the potential consequences. Ultimately, it is your choice, and you take full responsibility for it.
