Jaw and chin · Front photo

Neck width to jaw width

The detector cannot see the neck edges and only estimates them, so this waits until you move or confirm both neck points.

How it's measured

Width of the neck just below the jaw divided by the width between the jaw corners (gonion to gonion), as a percentage.

Reference range

Male reference

90–110%

Female reference

75–85%

Source: Community facial analysis formula (public spreadsheet), top range: men 90% or more, women 75-85%. The formula sets no upper limit for men; we use 110%.

In the score

Counts toward the score with weight 10 (Community formula point table: neck width, 10 points).

What changes it

• Measured on the skin outline, so muscle and soft tissue affect it as well as bone.

One number, one feature

One measurement describes one detail in one photo. Pose, lens and expression move it, and every reference range is an average from limited samples.
