What is AI face analysis?

AI face analysis uses computer vision to detect 68+ facial landmarks in a photo and calculate precise geometric measurements between them. These measurements — distances, angles, ratios, and symmetry values — are the same metrics used by plastic surgeons, aesthetic researchers, and orthodontists to evaluate facial structure.

Unlike simple face rating apps that output a single score, comprehensive face analysis breaks your results into 17 individual metrics. Each metric gets its own score and percentile ranking against population data from over 2 million analyzed faces. This granular breakdown shows you exactly which features are your strengths and which have room for improvement.

The analysis is purely geometric and data-driven. It does not use subjective AI judgments — it measures specific angles, distances, and proportions that are well-established in peer-reviewed facial attractiveness research.

All 17 metrics explained

Here is every metric measured in RealSmile's face analysis, with the science behind each one:

Bilateral Symmetry

Left-right balance measured at 12+ landmark pairs. Asymmetry above 8% correlates with lower attractiveness ratings in research.

Canthal Tilt

Angle between inner and outer eye corners. Positive tilt (+3 to +8 degrees) is consistently preferred across cultures.

FWHR

Facial width-to-height ratio from cheekbones to upper lip and brow. Linked to perceived dominance and attractiveness.

Gonial Angle

Jawline angle at the mandible. Ideal range 120-135 degrees. Affected by body fat and jaw development.

Facial Thirds

Upper (hairline to brow), middle (brow to nose base), lower (nose to chin). Equal thirds = maximum harmony.

Golden Ratio

How closely key proportions match the 1.618 ratio. Measured at multiple landmark pairs across the face.

Midface Ratio

Nose width to inter-eye distance. Compact midface with proportionate nose is generally preferred.

Hunter Eye Index

Composite of canthal tilt, upper lid exposure, and scleral show. The "deep-set" eye aesthetic.

Eye Spacing

Interpupillary distance relative to face width. Ideal ratio approximates 1:1:1 (eye:gap:eye).

Brow Position

Height and arch of brow bone relative to orbital rim. Affects perceived expressiveness and youthfulness.

Nose-Face Ratio

Nose width and length proportional to total face dimensions. Specific ideal ranges vary by sex.

Lip Fullness

Upper and lower lip ratio and overall lip-to-face proportion. Balanced fullness rates higher.

Chin Projection

How far the chin projects relative to the lower lip line. Affects profile balance and perceived jaw strength.

Cheekbone Width

Bizygomatic width relative to face. Prominent cheekbones are a consistent attractiveness marker.

Skin Quality

Texture evenness, tone uniformity, and visible clarity. One of the most impactful and changeable metrics.

Facial Harmony

Composite score of how well all features work together. Measures inter-metric balance and proportion coherence.

Overall Score

Weighted composite of all 16 metrics above, calibrated against 2M+ analyzed faces for percentile ranking.

Face analysis vs. face rating: what's the difference?

Face Analysis (this tool)

  • +17 individual metric scores
  • +Percentile ranking for each metric
  • +Specific improvement recommendations
  • +Shows your strongest features
  • +Tracks progress over time
  • +Used in aesthetic medicine

Simple Face Rating

  • -Single overall number (e.g. 7/10)
  • -No breakdown of individual features
  • -No specific improvement advice
  • -Often based on crowdsourced votes
  • -Cannot track changes meaningfully
  • -Entertainment, not analysis

Why analysis matters more: A single face rating number tells you almost nothing actionable. Knowing that your symmetry is 85th percentile but your jawline definition is 35th percentile tells you exactly what to focus on — and body fat reduction could move that jawline score significantly.

How to get the most accurate analysis

Use natural daylight

Face a window with even natural light hitting your face from the front. Avoid overhead lights (create harsh shadows), flash (flattens features), and backlighting (underexposes your face). Natural daylight gives the AI the clearest view of your actual features.

Hold at arm's length (60-80cm)

Close-up selfies use wide-angle lens distortion that makes noses 30% larger and distorts all proportions. At arm's length, the lens distortion is minimal and measurements are accurate. Use a timer and prop the phone if needed.

Face the camera directly

Angled photos make symmetry measurements inaccurate and distort ratio calculations. Look straight at the camera with a neutral expression for the most precise landmark detection.

Clear your face

Hair covering your forehead, jaw, or cheeks prevents accurate measurement of those areas. Pull hair back and ensure your full face from hairline to chin is visible. Remove sunglasses.

Frequently asked questions

What does AI face analysis measure?

It detects 68+ facial landmarks and calculates 17 geometric metrics: symmetry, canthal tilt, FWHR, jawline angle, facial thirds, golden ratio, midface ratio, eye spacing, brow position, nose ratio, lip fullness, chin projection, cheekbone width, skin quality, and overall harmony.

How accurate is AI face analysis?

Individual metric measurements are precise to sub-millimeter accuracy. The correlation with perceived attractiveness is well-established for most metrics in research. The analysis is most useful as a comprehensive breakdown rather than a single score.

What's the difference between analysis and rating?

Rating gives one number. Analysis breaks your face into 17 scored metrics with percentile rankings and specific improvement recommendations. Analysis is far more actionable.

Is my photo stored or shared?

No. Photos are processed in real-time and not stored after analysis. Facial data is not shared with third parties. Processing is encrypted and ephemeral.

How should I take my photo?

Natural daylight, arm's length distance, face the camera directly, neutral expression, full face visible. Avoid overhead lights, flash, filters, and close-up selfie distance.
