Facial harmony is deeply influenced by symmetry and proportion. Symmetrical features, where both sides of the face mirror each other, create a sense of balance that the human eye naturally finds attractive. The golden ratio (1.618:1), a classical standard of beauty, is often reflected in ideal facial proportions such as eye spacing, nose width, and the relationship between facial height and width.
In maxillofacial surgery, these principles are more than just theory; they guide precise skeletal adjustments in areas like the midface and jawline. The goal is to restore or enhance facial balance, bringing out a person’s natural esthetics in a way that feels both subtle and transformative.
