What is your midface length? (+ a way of measuring)

[optimisticzoomer]

1. Go to a mirror and align your eyes and ears like the top red line in the pic above. This is to rule out the head tilt factor

2. Take a ruler and measure the distance from the CENTRE OF YOUR PUPIL down to the bottom of your nose (the bottom red line).

Mine is 50mm

I'm aware this isn't truly the "midface", it's just this is the area that needs shortening for me at least

 

[Mr.cope]

Midface ends at the middle of your top lip

Where the shape of your lip starts

Actually it doesn't matter how many mm your midface have but how it looks

Yes, I'm talking about this length specifically

 

[Mr.cope]

Midface length doesnt really matter because everyone has a different skull shape
Its about the ratio

 

[Deleted member 3043]

1.06 midface ratio but just look decently harmonious but not really compact because of wide set eyes.

So you've got a long face?
Absolute measurements aren't very indicative, as they depend on your skull size. What people generally use are the ratios, because they symbolise harmony.

my midface is 1.02

 

[MedMaxxing]

my midface is 1.02

How do you get the 1.02? I assume a number divided by another for the ratio.

 

[oatmeal]

my midface ratio: ~0.98

 

[lutte]

1.1-1.12 midface something like that

 

[optimisticzoomer]

[optimisticzoomer]

Approx 59mm, which supposedly puts me at a terrible ratio of 0.92. It's hard to be exact with the mm tho
