A plastic surgeon has revealed the procedures he feels are in play for the changing faces that appear to be happening everywhere in Hollywood.
Cosmetic surgery is certainly very popular amongst celebrities, with the likes of Lindsay Lohan, Melania Trump and Donatella Versace revealing new looks over recent months, leading to fans to believe they’ve had recent treatments.
There seems to be somewhat of a taboo when it comes to cosmetic surgery even to this day – though it’s certainly popular amongst not just celebrities, but also the general public.

The surgeon explained how cosmetic work done on the likes of lips, cheeks and jawlines are increasingly popular amongst celebrities nowadays.
Speaking to the Daily Mail’s FEMAIL, Dr Schimpf said: “One thing that is consistent right now, especially with Hollywood celebrities is volumization of the face. Basically what these celebrities have done is increase volume in their cheeks, their jawline and their lips predominantly.

“You can see in their lips that they’ve lost their natural contour in shape and have become more sausage-like appearing. They have increased volume in their cheeks that they did not have years ago, as well as improved definition of the jawline.
“There are multiple ways to increase this volume, including fat grafting products, such as sculpture and multiple injectable fillers.”

Of course, natural ageing is a thing we all have to deal with, some of us more than others.

Though the surgeon explained how there are methods you can undertake to reverse the signs of ageing, particularly in your face.
“With natural aging everyone loses volume in their face,” Dr Schimpf explained. “We have resorption of our underlying bone structure, meaning the jaw, the cheeks, the chin all of these skeletal structures begin to decrease in size and undergo resorption.”
He continued: “In addition, we begin to lose soft tissue. This is a result of changes in multiple elements in the soft tissue including collagen, hyaluronic acid etc… and finally loss of elastin in the skin leads to skin laxity.

“All of these factors of natural aging lead to a decrease in volume of the face and an aged appearance.”
While cosmetic surgery certainly has its benefits, Dr Schimpf notes how it can sometimes not go to plan, leading to someone’s face looking a little ‘weird’.
“The contrast between certain parts of the face looking much more youthful than other parts tends to lead to a weird appearance,” he explained.
Amber Heard has one of the most beautiful faces in the world according to the ‘golden ratio’
A ratio discovered by the Greeks is believed to ‘hold the secret formula of the world’s most beautiful faces’
An ancient scientific ratio method has revealed Amber Heard has some of the most aesthetically pleasing facial proportions across the globe.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, of course, a ratio of beauty used by the Greeks is considered a formula to work out who’s considered the most beautiful in the world and it all relies on the layout of one’s facial proportions.
As such, it often used to determine who is the most beautiful, according to science – for both men and women.

What is the ‘Golden Ratio’?
Twitter account Fermat’s Library explains: “Mathematics and art have a long history with each other.
“The Golden Ratio (~1.618) was known to Euclid, Pythagoras and has been used in ancient Egypt, Greece, in the Parthenon and the Mona Lisa.

“It appears in nature at the macroscopic and quantum level. Here is a golden spiral.”
And there’s a specific method to calculate whether someone has a near-golden ratio when it comes to their facial features.

How to calculate the ‘Golden Ratio’
To calculate the Golden Ratio, you measure the length and width of the face, before dividing the length by the width.

According to experts, the ideal number should be around 1.62 and other factors can be measured too, including the distance from the hairline to the eyes, the gap between the eyes and the distance between the bottom of the nose and the chin.
Basically, the closer a face scores to the 1.62 ratio, the higher the golden ratio percentage it has and the most ‘beautiful’ a face is.

Most beautiful faces according to the ‘Golden Ratio’
Dr Julian De Silva from Centre for Advanced Facial Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery in London utilized the ratio in 2016 to figure out who some of the most ‘beautiful’ people are in the world – most beautiful subsequently according to the scientific ratio that is.

Dr Silva told US Weekly at the time: “The Greeks discovered that the ratio occurs everywhere in nature and for thousands of years it has been thought to hold the secret formula of the world’s most beautiful faces.
“The Phi ratio of 1.618 has long been thought to hold the secret for beauty, but now with the computer mapping we can calculate how it applies to real women.”
Dr Silva analysed several celebrities including Amber Heard and found the Aquaman‘s actor’s face was 91.85 per cent perfect to the ‘Golden Ratio’.
