Aesthetics is all about illusions.
If you have a narrow waist, your shoulders look wider even if they aren’t really wide.
If you have a big head, your frame looks smaller even if it isn’t small.
We perceive features relative to each other, not in absolute distances and sizes. That’s why a narrow IPD creates the appearance of a longer face.
So how do we use this to our advantage?
Let’s take a look at the most sought-after trait in lookism: forward facial growth. We want forward foreheads and brow ridges, projected noses and brow ridges, forward maxillas, and long mandibles with protruding chins.
But let’s rethink this from an aesthetics standpoint. Instead of advancing all those bones forward, what if you retrude the things that you don’t want to be forward, such as the eyes—creating the ILLUSION of forward growth rather than real forward growth?
In the morph, all I did was move stuff backward and give myself a rhinoplasty. I was able to fraud forward growth by recessing my eyes and my mouth area.
Now, why the fuck would anyone want to recess their eyes instead of actually advancing their maxilla?
To save money.
LeFort 3 is extremely expensive and rarely ever performed. It’s surgically easier to recess things than to move them forward, and you also need fewer surgeries.
For example, just by recessing your eyes, you’ve pretty much gotten a frontal bone implant, a brow ridge implant, better under-eye support, LeFort 3, and a BSSO. Just by recessing your mouth (should mainly be done to only Blacks and Asians), you’ve pretty much gotten a chin implant and a more projected nose.
Aside from eye (and mouth) recession and rhinoplasty, you may need malar/buccal fat removal to accentuate your bone structure so it looks forward-projected.
