Ive been doing research obviously and i know when some features are well developed and with ideal range, but im kinda autistic when its about maxilla. Someone explain please
 
If the bottom of your eye and the bottom of your nose seem to sit on the same plane or barely project, you have a recessed maxilla. However, if the angle from the bottom of your eye to the bottom of your nose is approaching 45 degrees or to put it simply appearing projected, you are not recessed.

This description is high tier.

Another point of info for OP




Maxillary projection can be divided in two primary ways. Upper and lower.
You can be like me with a 45Degreee distance between the eye region and the nasal base or lip area… indicating good lower projection but still have poor upper projection, mainly affecting zygomatic forward projection. Easiest way to identify this is a (viewing your side profile) flat line from your lower eye area to the base of your cheekbone. You should see a a bump(zygote)..

If your upper maxilla is flat or recessed, you’ll have a flat line under the eye area and downward. Development of the zygomatic bone sideward and forward(most affected by weak upper maxilla) is a key to an attractive face.. a way to solve this is for minor issues, fat grafting to create volume. For more serious cases, titanium implants, or silicone implants will produce that needed shape to provide angularity and structure to the face.

That’s a good description but it’s cagefuel that both those pics are chico, making it still a bit ambiguous
