Abstract
Face anthropometry refers to the measurement and analysis of the dimensions, proportions, and
features of the human face. It involves the quantitative assessment of various facial parameters,
such as distances, angles, and ratios, to study the variability and characteristics of facial structures
in different populations. Aims of study to investigate the variations in anthropometric
measurements of the human face across different age groups, to explore the possible histological,
anatomical, and developmental factors contributing to these changes in facial measurements and
to provide calibration of anthropometric measurement between normal and aging patient. The
study population consisted of 120 healthy female adults person, aged between (20 – 54) years, who
were divided into three age groups: (40) person of (20-29) years old, (40) person of (30-39) years
old, and (40) person of (40-54) years old. The anthropometric measurements were taken using a
digital sliding caliper to measure Bizygomatic distance(mm), Bigonal distance (mm) and the
length of the chin(mm).The result of current study showed that mean of bizygomatic distance,
bigonal distance and length of the chin decreased with age. Facial expression measurement was
reduced with increase age that reflect the face become more narrower and shorter
features of the human face. It involves the quantitative assessment of various facial parameters,
