Eye prominence - How to get deep-set eyes

[homo_faber]

regarding pfl


if we look at research of ideal pfl we see that europeans tend to have an shortly lower pfl then african and arab people simply because their eyes are more deeper set, so naturally the pfl will decrease the slightly

https://looksmax.org/threads/ideal-pfl-according-to-science.230487/

if you look at the example of the op the pfl also decreased but obviously this didnt made the after result not bad looking in comparison to the before.

and people with deep set like chris hensworth dont have a huge pfl yet their eyes are attractive

 

[homo_faber]

since the example in the op was medical indicated and not even really a truthfully cosmetic procedure he examples of people who got orbital decompression out of cosmetic reasons

Introduction

Eye prominence plays a very important role on how your face is perceived, deep-set eyes are a male dimorphic trait, it has been hypothesized that deep-set eyes may be an adaptation for combat, hunting and male intrasexual selection, designed to protect the eyes from hits.




As you can see in the following image, towards the more masculine faces, the eyes become vertically narrower and more sunken:

Eye prominence is determined by the projection of the orbital rims in relation to the cornea.



The relationship of the globe to the orbital rims is a primary determinant of the appearance of the upper third of the face. Normal values are shown in the following image:

Classification of eye prominence

To measure the degree of eye prominence a hertel exophthalmometer is used, this device measures the position of the globe in relation to the lateral orbital rim.

The normal range of ocular protrusion as measured from the lateral orbital rim to the corneal apex is 14–21 mm in adults.

Depending on your exophthalmometry measurement, your eyes will be:

-Deep-set (<14mm)​

-Normal (15 to 17mm)​

-Moderately prominent (18 to 20mm)​

-Very prominent (>20mm)​

Orbital vector

Eye prominence can also be measured with the orbital vector, the orbital vector is determined by the linear relationship of the most anterior projection of the globe to the most anterior projection of the lower eyelid and the malar eminence.

According to this relationship, the orbital vector will be:

-Positive vector: The most anterior portion of the globe lies posterior to the lower eyelid margin, which lies posterior to the anterior malar eminence.​

-Neutral vector: The anterior globe, lower eyelid margin, and anterior malar eminence all lie in the same vertical plane.​

-Negative vector: The anterior globe lies anterior to the lower eyelid margin, which lies anterior to the malar eminence.​

Negative and positive orbital vectors:
View attachment 460947

The malar eminence is the most prominent point of the zygomatic bone (malar bone) and is always located anterior to the infraorbital rim, this is something that should be taken into account when augmenting the infraorbital rims with implants.

In most cases, a positive vector equates to a deep-set eye, while a negative vector results in a prominent eye.


Achieving deep-set eyes

To achieve deep-set eyes, you can either reduce the prominence of the globe or increase the projection of the orbital rims, in some cases both approaches may be necessary to achieve deep-set eyes.

The surgical procedure to reduce the promience of the eyeballs is called orbital decompression, it involves removing or thinning various safe orbital walls (and orbital fat), thereby expanding the eye socket, allowing the eyeball to settle back.

The best and safest first orbital wall to remove (or thin out) is the lateral orbital wall, followed by the medial wall, and last the orbital floor. More reduction with added risk is taken as more walls are decompressed. Incisions are hidden in the lateral upper eyelid crease (for lateral orbital decompression), caruncle or transcaruncular (for medial wall decompression) and lower eyelid conjunctiva (for orbital floor decompression).

To increase the projection of the orbital rims you can get orbital implants.

good thread but you should mention that there are different forms and techniques of orbital decompression.

you just mentioned the one where they remove bones but there are also techniques where they dont touch the bones at all and just remove soft tissue behind the eyes

its also noteworthy that orbital decompression is a relative safe procedure, eg statistically speaking you are more likely to get blind from a simple jaw surgery that includes the lefort 1 cut (not evening mentioning lefort 2 or 3 here) then from orbital decompression

i put in the work to research a few surgeons who offer orbital decompression for cosmetic reasons

https://looksmax.org/threads/i-rese...d-retraction-surgery-besides-dr-taban.230900/

You can go blind from a LeFort 1? Suicidefuel for sure. Also, I can’t find a single case of blindness occurring in a patient who did not have Graves’ disease prior to undergoing Orbital Decompression. If you are doing this for cosmetic reasons, the odds are extremely low I would guess.

Try squinching workouts and face yoga. Could just be a muscle imbalance. I had the same issue. Haven't seen CRAZY improvements yet, but definitely some.

Well, "Sexiness" peaks at STM, so it makes sense, his eyes are still relatively deep-set tho.

Also JFL at asking girls these kind of questions

 

[reptiles]

Can you explain how a standard bimax leads to improvement in the eye area?

Also i found out how the results were so good the bimax was an upper jaw retraction this lady had a gook eye area for eye areas like that you move the eyes back some what the upper maxilla was moved back meanwhile the lower was moved forward that's why the eye area improved gooks have this kinda eye area usually strange to see it on a european

btw training ur under eye muscle increases the appearance of deepset eyes if you have enough hooding

really, deep set eyes is on a bone level. Eye training the oculis, malaris, etc only tones the muscle but won't make it reside further into the skull jfl. Where did u hear this from?

this is why i said "appears" ofc it's not true deep set eyes but imagine instead ur browridge and under eye fat causing an illusion of more deepsetted eyes imagine one person with 0 under eye fat/muscle and one person without any . Now can you see what I mean?
