Everyone has their own unique personality.

Facial features, body type, skin tone, and more

Numerous elements create a variety of impressions

and a person’s overall mood.

If we break down the factors that shape an impression

in more detail,

there are countless items,

but these days they seem to be commonly divided into two categories.

A kind and cute impression is called a

'Dog-like face'

A chic and refined impression is called a

'Cat-like face'

Today, together with Obje Plastic Surgery,

we will look at the

characteristics and differences

between dog-like and cat-like faces.

In general, dog-like and cat-like faces are distinguished

by facial shape or eye shape.

Dog-like face characteristics

People with dog-like faces

often have a round face shape

and large, round eyes.

They often have slightly downturned eye corners,

a rounded nose tip, and a soft jawline,

and overall they tend to give off a youthful and cute image.

They give a pure and friendly impression,

and sometimes they can seem so innocent

that they appear not to know much about the world.

Celebrities commonly considered close to a dog-like face include

EXO’s Baekhyun, IVE’s An Yujin,

NewJeans’ Minji, CRAVITY’s Minhee,

and actors Park Bo-young and Song Hye-kyo.

Cat-like face characteristics

The characteristics of people with cat-like faces are

that their face shape is sharp,

the outer corners of the eyes are slightly upturned,

they have a slightly lifted nose tip with a half-straight, half-curved shape,

and sharp, mysterious eyes.

They also often have a clean outline.

In addition, because they have a mysterious and independent impression,

they can sometimes seem hard to approach,

chic, and cold.

Representative celebrities with cat-like faces include

NewJeans’ Hyein, BLACKPINK’s Jennie,

ITZY’s Yeji, aespa’s Karina,

and actors Han Ye-seul, Go So-young, and Han Chae-young.

Each type has its own unique charm,

along with advantages and disadvantages.

Try to identify which type you belong to

and find styling methods that suit your appearance.

For example,

cat-like faces can emphasize their individuality

with a cat-eye makeup look

that highlights a sexy and urban image

by using sharp eyeliner.

Dog-like faces suit brown-toned eyeshadow,

since it adds a softer image.

You can also express a warm charm

with round and soft contouring.

Even if you are a dog-like or cat-like face,

your appearance or image can change

through makeup, hairstyle changes, or plastic surgery.

However, the basic skeletal structure

and personality traits remain mostly the same,

so it is important to have a mindset

that uses these traits in a positive way.

Among the people who come for consultations about plastic surgery,

there are also some who talk about

dog-like faces and cat-like faces.

However, if surgery is done

exactly as desired without consideration,

it may not suit the overall image.

So when performing surgery,

we carefully conduct consultations

to suggest customized surgery suited to each individual,

considering the overall image, face shape,

and facial features.

is a good way to boost confidence

and leave a positive impression.

We hope that through this article,

understanding the differences between dog-like faces and cat-like faces

will be helpful for careful self-care

and for building relationships with others.
