Comparing sensitivity to facial asymmetry and facial identity
Bilateral symmetry is a facial feature that plays an important role in the aesthetic judgments of faces. The extent to which symmetry contributes to the identification of faces is less clear. We investigated the relationship between facial asymmetry and identity using synthetic face stimuli where the geometric identity of the face can be precisely controlled. Thresholds for all observers were 2...
متن کاملFacial Flap Repositioning in Posttraumatic Facial Asymmetry
Perfect facial and body symmetry is an important aesthetic concept which is very difficult, if not impossible, to achieve. Yet, facial asymmetries are commonly encountered by plastic and reconstructive surgeons. Here, we present a case of posttraumatic facial asymmetry successfully treated with a unique concept of facial flap repositioning. A 25-year-old male patient visited our department with...
متن کاملFacial expressions and memory for facial identity 1 Running head: FACIAL EXPRESSIONS AND MEMORY FOR FACIAL IDENTITY
Previous studies indicate that the encoding of new facial identities in memory is influenced by the type of expression displayed by the faces. In the current study, we investigated whether or not this influence requires attention to be explicitly directed towards the affective meaning of facial expressions. In a first experiment, we found that facial identity was better recognized when the face...
متن کاملAnalysis of Facial Asymmetry
Facial symmetry is an important component of attractiveness. However, functional symmetry is favorable to aesthetic symmetry. In addition, fluctuating asymmetry is more natural and common, even if patients find such asymmetry to be noticeable. However, fluctuating asymmetry remains difficult to define. Several studies have shown that a certain level of asymmetry could generate an unfavorable im...
متن کاملNon-Syndromal Facial Asymmetry.
On extra-oral examination, an obvious facial asymmetry of the mandibular third with deviation of chin to right with a convex profile and excessive exposure of lower lip was noticeable. Bilateral temporomandibular joint and condylar movements were within normal limits without any clicking or grating noise. The mentolabial sulcus and the nasolabial sulcus were flattened. Intra-oral examination re...
