Facial asymmetry is an individual characteristic connected to health, physical attraction and beauty. The focus of our thesis lies in monitoring directional and fluctuating face asymmetry, comparing males and females with regard to gender dimorphism.
In our group of test subjects (in man as well as women), directional asymmetry was found more often than fluctuating asymmetry. In both genders the left side of the facial structure seems wider than the right side.
