Facial hemihypertrophy and facial hemiatrophy: Report of 2 cases

open access: yesJournal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology, 2008
Facial hemihypertrophy and facial hemiatrophy are rare developmental anomalies. These conditions are characterized by an asymmetric growth of one or more parts of the tissues on one side of the face. The facial asymmetry may be total or partial.

Does Head Tilt Influence Facial Appearance More Than Head Turn?

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmic & Vision Research, 2023
Purpose: To evaluate the frequency of facial asymmetry parameters in patients with head tilt versus those with head turn. Methods: This cross-sectional comparative study was performed on 155 cases, including 58 patients with congenital pure head turn due

Predictability of hand skill and cognitive abilities from craniofacial width in right- and left-handed men and women: relation of skeletal structure to cerebral function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Recently, a family of homeobox genes involved in brain and craniofacial development was identified. In light of this genetic background, we hypothesized that some functional characteristics of human brain (hand skill, cognition) may be linked to some ...

The face, beauty, and symmetry: Perceiving asymmetry in beautiful faces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The relationship between bilateral facial symmetry and beauty remains to be clarified. Here, straight head-on photographs of “beautiful” faces from the collections of professional modeling agencies were selected.

open access: yesJournal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2016
Facial asymmetry is one of the commonest facial anomalies, with reported incidence as high as 34%. Hemifacial microsomia (HFM) has an incidence of 1 in every 4000–5600 children and is one of the commonest causes of facial asymmetry.

Identifying Modulated Functional Connectivity in Corresponding Cerebral Networks in Facial Nerve Lesions Patients With Facial Asymmetry

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Facial asymmetry is the major complaint of patients with unilateral facial nerve lesions. Frustratingly, although patients experience the same etiology, the extent of oral commissure asymmetry is highly heterogeneous.

Analysis of Facial Asymmetry [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Craniofacial Surgery, 2015
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
