Why does one half of my face look sunken when I use the video camera on my android.

My face looks so disfured like I had a stroke, but when I look in the mirror everythings normal. Why is my video camera doing this?

one side stronger then the other therefore seeing it flipped looks weird

it could be lens distortion but I don't think so
or it could that you're just overanalyzing your asymmetries that no one else notices but yourself.


we cannot know unless you actually post a video.

Phone camera sensors are measured in parts of the inch, like 1/3" and so on, those sensors have millions of pixels that light photons have to hit. Also the aperture is generally very narrow. It could be the camera getting limited amount of lightning. Maybe you have asymmetry of sorts, as it's normal and the lack of amount of lightning exaggerates the shadow. Angle could play a role, as your eye is never in the same position as cameras lense.
Tried different cameras?

Do you use the selfie-cam? At my phone it's not right in the middle so it will make your face look more asymmetrical if you don't have your head right infront of

Phone camera lenses usually narrows face.

If the interest is to photomaxx, then decent DSLR camera is needed
