How is Canthal Tilt measured and what is considered positive tilt?

Canthal tilt is the angle of the palpebral axis connecting the inner eye corner (medial canthus) to the outer corner (lateral canthus). A positive tilt (+2° to +6°) occurs when the outer corner sits higher than the inner corner, creating an alert, refreshed aesthetic appearance.

How does TheFaceScan detect face shape accurately from a photo?

TheFaceScan uses 478 high-precision facial landmarks to calculate the exact ratios of cheekbone width (bizygomatic breadth), jawline width (bigonial breadth), forehead width, and total face length, mathematically classifying the structure into Oval, Square, Round, Diamond, Heart, or Oblong archetypes.

What is an ideal compact midface ratio (1:1)?

The compact midface ratio compares the distance between the pupils (interpupillary distance) to the vertical distance between the eye line and upper lip. A ratio near 1.0 is considered the modern aesthetic benchmark for compact, harmonious facial proportions.

Is TheFaceScan truly free with zero paywalls?

Yes, TheFaceScan is completely free. Unlike apps that charge $6.99 to $9.99 per week, all calculations—including canthal tilt, face shape, symmetry, and golden ratios—run directly in your browser on TheFaceScan.com without paywalls or credit cards.

Why TheFaceScan is Free: The Anti-Paywall Standard

Traditional mobile apps charge upwards of $250/year via sneaky recurring trials just to reveal a 2-digit attractiveness score. We believe classical aesthetic geometry—Canthal Tilt, Midface Ratio, Facial Thirds, and Golden Ratio Phi—should be an open scientific instrument available to all.

Your photos are processed directly in browser memory and discarded immediately. No facial models are sold, stored, or trained on. If you enjoy the atelier, you can optionally support our server costs as a Community Patron.
