Код красоты или гармонизация лица: как достичь идеальных пропорций

The Greek philosopher Pythagoras claimed that he not only discovered the secret of beauty, but also saw beauty in the universe. He discovered that plants and animals grow according to exact mathematical laws, and that everything beautiful in nature obeys the law of the "golden section".

Cosmetologist, member of the Association of Preventive and Anti-aging Medicine Steshenko Alexandra Sergeevna tells on estet-portal.com what is the "golden section" rule and face harmonization, and how to achieve the ideal proportions of beauty.

The Golden Ratio Rule: The Ideal Proportions of Beauty 

The "Golden Ratio" is such a proportional division of a segment into unequal parts, in which the entire segment relates to the larger part in the same way as the largest part itself relates to the smaller one. 

Pythagoras calculated that beauty code is the ratio 1 : 1.618. Try measuring the distance from the floor to the navel, and then - from the navel to the head.

If you have the correct body proportion, the ratio will be 1:1.618.

In a beautiful face, the width of the mouth is exactly 1.618 of the width of the nose. Dentists, in turn, noticed that the front tooth was 1.618 wider than the next. On a beautiful face, this ratio is repeated over and over again. And, of course, in our age of development of plastic surgery, dentistry and cosmetology, the law of the "golden section" could not be overlooked.

Renowned plastic surgeon Steven Marquardt worked 25 years ago to make faces deformed from birth or accidental more attractive. However, the result was not always satisfactory. He wondered "What is attractiveness?" and began to study this topic in detail. 

"Golden Ratio": revealing the secrets of ideal facial proportions

Based on the works of Pythagoras and the German professor Zeising, Leonardo da Vinci combined all the knowledge about the "golden section" and deduced the formula for the ideal face.

The nose in profile and full face is a triangle. In the pretty face, the sides of the triangle are 1.618 times longer than its base, and the triangle can be converted to a pentagon. When the face has the most pleasing outline, a pentagon appears on it.

Stephen Marquardt combined all the triangles and pentagons, took into account all the ratios with the number 1.618 and created a "beauty mask".

The better the mask fits a person, the more beautiful his face. 

The mask is suitable for both women and men, regardless of the race of the person, as well as all beautiful faces of past eras.

How to achieve facial harmonization with contouring 

We all strive for beauty! Where to start? 

For starters, consider the face as a single entity. Each patient – it's individuality! There is no unique formula or scheme here! The only thing I know for sure is that for contouring of any area I can rely on fillers Saypha® from CROMA. 

As a rule, patients want to enlarge their lips, forgetting that they can "get out" from the general picture of the face. Very often, after lip augmentation, there is a need to increase the chin, after the chin there is a correction of the chin crease, aggravated nasolabial folds, etc. Although it is much more logical to start this path from a completely different side!

You definitely noticed that in our latitudes deformational type of aging prevails: the face gradually "drains"; down, thereby making the lower third heavier. Does it need to be weighed down even more? We, cosmetologists, always strive for lifting, we try to "support" and "pull up". Saypha® fillers by CROMA, which have been mentioned in many articles before, will help us in this endeavor.

Contouring of the nasolabial folds

Let's take a look at the benefits of contouring. This is a minimally invasive procedure. As a rule, it is carried out using a cannula. This allows for a minimum number of punctures. Also, by working at different levels, we can achieve volumization of space and displacement of the skin. For example, in many women and men with age, the temporal cavity becomes very noticeable, which changes face proportions, adds age, as well as excess skin on the face. When it is volumized, improvement in appearance and relief of the face is immediately noted. 

The same when working with cheekbones: harmonization – this is not "apple cheeks", but the return of lost volume and the correct proportions of the face. 

Using a cannula opens up opportunities to work with the ligament, which eventually loses its elasticity and forms paint bags under the eyes. 

About the angles of the lower jaw we talked to you earlier and remember that they are also an indicator of youth and provide the correct proportions of the face. They perfectly perform the function of tightening sagging tissues of the middle and lower zones of the face in the chin and jaw area.

It can be said that contour plastic – this is an integrated approach to solving the problems of the middle, lower thirds and the whole oval of the face.

Only after doing all this work is it worth taking on camouflage of nasolabial folds and puppet wrinkles, if necessary.

Let's take a look at benefits of contouring:

- Safety is very important for both doctor and patient. Gels hyaluronic acid – these are biologically inert preparations of non-animal origin that do not cause allergic reactions and absolutely compatible with human body tissues;

- It is equally important to get the expected result of aesthetic correction. With gel fillers it is immediately visible;

- As we have already discussed, the effect of rejuvenation after contouring will be as natural;

- A big plus is that the procedure does not require anesthesia, unlike plastic surgery;

- Not unimportant factor in favor of contouring is absence of scars and marks on the skin;

Complications of contouring: when "beauty injections" do not benefit

 - In one procedure of contour plastics you can perform a large amount of work – for example, increase the volume of the lips, emphasize the cheekbones and angles of the lower jaw;

- Patients are always pleased with the absence of a rehabilitation period. Slight swelling possible for 2-3 days;

- It's nice that the result is maintained up to 12-18 months

How to choose the right fillers 

What densities should fillers be chosen? 

On the Ukrainian market there are 5 fillers produced by CROMA: Saypha® Filler and Saypha® Filler Lidocaine, Saypha® Volume and Saypha® Volume Lidocaine, Saypha® Volume Plus Lidocaine – to solve the aesthetic needs of any part of the face.

For a deep layer procedure, Saypha® is indicated; Volume Plus Lidocaine – HA 25mg/ml + Lidocaine 0.3%. To work in more superficial layers, for a smoothing effect of a denser filler, it is possible to use Saypha®; Volume – HA 23.thinsp;mg/ml and Saypha.reg; Volume Lidocaine – HA 23mg/ml + Lidocaine 0.3%. And, of course, do not forget about giving volume to the lips with Saypha® Filler – HA 23.thinsp;mg/ml and Saypha.reg; Filler Lidocaine – HA 23.thinsp;mg/ml + Lidocaine 0.3%.  High cross-linking BDDE crosslinker, no endotoxins and foreign proteins*. Provides absence of edema during and after the procedure, allows you to get a predictable effect that lasts for a long time. Preparation, crosslinking, purification (removal of residual BDDE) and homogenization of hyaluronic acid is performed using the patented MACRO (MAtrix CROsslinking) technology. This technology provides adaptation and embedding of the filler in the layer required for injection.

To to minimize the risks of damage to vessels and other anatomical structures, it is recommended to work with a flexible 22-23G cannula 50 mm long. As a rule, the consumption of the drug per area is

from 1 to 2 ml

, but the final decision on the injected volume is made by the cosmetologist when examining the patient.
