This is the working '''glossary''' of looksmaxxing measurement talk: bones, orbits, fat, ratios, hair fall, plates. Scene slang is labeled as slang. Anthropometry is labeled as measurement. Ideal numbers from rating apps are '''not''' medicine.

Parent pages: [[Facial skeleton]], [[Orbit]], [[Midface]], [[Hairline]], [[Hair drape]], [[Cranial suture]], [[Growth plate]].

== Skull and facial bones ==
* [[Facial skeleton]] — the bony mask the forums mean by “bone.”
* [[Frontal bone]] / [[forehead]] — upper third; trichion to glabella.
* [[Glabella]] — skin/bone between the brows.
* [[Brow ridge]] (supraorbital ridge / torus) — the shelf over the eyes.
* [[Zygomatic bone]] (zygoma, malar) — cheekbone; [[bizygomatic width]].
* [[Zygomatic arch]] — the bar from cheek to ear; temporal hollow sits above it.
* [[Maxilla]] — midface block; recession talk lives here.
* [[Palatine bone]] — back of the hard palate; [[palate expansion]] territory.
* [[Nasal bone]] — bridge; see [[nose]].
* [[Mandible]] — lower jaw; ramus, body, [[gonial angle]], [[chin]].
* [[Sphenoid bone]] — skull-base keystone; pterygoid plates; [[spheno-occipital synchondrosis]].
* [[Temporal bone]] — side of the skull; temple hollow.
* [[Occipital bone]] — back of the skull (rarely rated).
* [[Clavicle]] — not a facial bone; [[Clavicular]] took the name from biacromial width. See [[frame (body)]].

Cephalometric landmarks the boards recycle: '''nasion, glabella, trichion, subnasale, stomion, pogonion, menton, gonion, zygion, orbitale, porion, pogonion.'''

== Orbit (all of it) ==
See [[orbit]] for the cavity as a whole.

* '''Roof''' — frontal bone + lesser wing of sphenoid; [[supraorbital rim]].
* '''Floor''' — maxilla + zygomatic; [[infraorbital rim]]; infraorbital foramen.
* '''Lateral wall''' — zygomatic + greater wing of sphenoid.
* '''Medial wall''' — lacrimal, ethmoid (lamina papyracea), maxilla; thin.
* '''Aperture / orbital box''' — the opening you see; deep-set vs proptotic.
* [[Orbital vector]] — globe vs rim (negative vector = globe in front of rim).
* [[Palpebral fissure]] — the eye opening; length, height, almond vs round.
* [[Canthal tilt]] — lateral vs medial canthus.
* Medial canthus / lateral canthus — inner and outer corners.
* [[Hunter eyes]] / [[prey eyes]] — slang bundles, not zoology.
* [[Upper eyelid exposure]] (UEE) — visible pretarsal skin; hunter-eye talk wants little.
* [[Scleral show]] — white under the iris; tired/negative-vector tell.
* [[Tear trough]] / infraorbital hollow — groove at lid–cheek junction.
* Orbital fat pads — upper and lower; bags vs hollow.
* Canthoplasty / canthopexy — surgery on the outer corner (medicine, not a drill).

== Ratios and thirds ==
* [[Facial thirds]] — trichion–glabella, glabella–subnasale, subnasale–menton.
* [[Midface]] / midface ratio — compact vs long midface; several incompatible formulas.
* [[Facial width-to-height ratio]] (fWHR) — bizygomatic width over upper-face height.
* [[Bizygomatic width]] — zygion to zygion.
* [[Bigonial width]] — gonion to gonion; jaw width.
* Bigonial–bizygomatic ratio — jaw vs cheek width.
* [[Gonial angle]] — ramus vs mandibular body at the angle.
* [[Mandibular plane]] — lower-border slope.
* [[Ramus]] height — vertical back of the mandible.
* Facial fifths — eye-width units across the front.
* Interpupillary distance (IPD) / inner canthal distance.
* [[Waist-to-shoulder ratio]] — body V-taper; not a face metric.
* Ogee curve — S-curve temple → cheek → hollow.

== Fat ==
* [[Facial fat]] — compartments, not one blob.
* Buccal fat — deep cheek; [[buccal fat removal]] is surgery.
* Malar fat pad — superficial cheek prominence.
* Submental fat — under the chin; [[neck]].
* Periorbital fat — lids; too little reads cadaver, too much reads bag.
* [[Body fat]] — the boring lever that shows or hides bone.

== Brow ==
* [[Brow ridge]]
* [[Eyebrow]] — set, thickness, arch vs flat, “brow frauding” (dye/fill).
* [[Glabella]]

== Hair ==
* [[Hairline]] — juvenile, M-shape, temples, widow’s peak, fivehead.
* [[Norwood scale]]
* [[Hair density]] — follicles per cm² vs [[hair caliber]] (shaft thickness).
* [[Hair drape]] — how hair ''falls'': triangle hair, flow, curtains, 90-degree, weight, connection.
* [[Triangle hair]] — inverted-triangle mass on top; a barber diagnosis, not a bone.
* [[Haircut]], [[beard]], [[hair transplant]], [[minoxidil]], [[finasteride]], [[SMP]]

== Skin and treatments ==
* [[Skin]]
* [[Skin clarity]] — texture, pores, pigment, redness, “glass.”
* [[Acne]], [[retinoid]], [[isotretinoin]], [[sunscreen]]
* [[Facial (treatment)|Facials]] — peels, extractions, devices; softmax, not bone.

== Eyes (color and contrast) ==
* [[Eye color]] — iris, contrast, catchlights; not a surgery.
* [[Limbal ring]]
* Sclera color (bloodshot vs white)

== Plates, sutures, fusion ==
“Plate fusing” in this scene means two different clocks:

# Long-bone '''[[growth plate]]s''' (epiphyses) — [[height]]; they close after puberty.
# '''[[Cranial suture]]s''' and synchondroses — skull/face. The ones the forums name:
#* [[Midpalatal suture]] — [[palate expansion]] / MARPE / MSE.
#* Circummaxillary sutures — maxilla to neighbors.
#* [[Spheno-occipital synchondrosis]] (SOS) — cranial base; midface folklore.
#* Pterygomaxillary fissure/suture — LeFort territory.
# Surgical '''plates''' (titanium hardware after bimax) are implants, not growth plates. See [[bimaxillary osteotomy]].

== Body (not face, still rated) ==
* [[Frame (body)]] — biacromial width, clavicles, wrists, ribcage.
* [[Waist-to-shoulder ratio]] / V-taper
* [[Physique]], [[height]], [[posture]], [[neck]]

== See also ==
* [[PSL scale]]
* [[Facial harmony]]
* [[QOVES Studio]]
* [[Facial masculinization surgery]]
* [[List of looksmaxxers]]

== References ==
Scene usage as documented on this wiki’s term pages; classical landmarks follow craniofacial anthropometry (Farkas and later cephalometrics). Rating-app cutoffs are products.
