Literally just different lighting

1. Malar Prominence:
First, We must determine the Strength and Projection of the zygomatic bones. (Rhoades) shows the Zygomatic size is a dimorphic trait correlated with 2d:4d ratio. Measuring the Malar prominence, can be done in multiple ways. Firstly, Measure your bigonial width and the bizygomatic width. The lower this number, the more likely you will be to have hollow cheeks. Ideal would be 90%. This is since the malar region projects both Forwards and horizontally.

The percentile for male bizygomatic breadth are as follows:
1%: 12.9cm
25%: 13.8cm
50%: 14.3cm
75%: 14.7cm
99%: 15.8cm

Secondly, Palpation of the Malar region is appropriate and can be used to estimate the projection. Simply Feeling the Strength and projection is in most cases sufficient.

Ogee Curve also shows how projecting the malar region is from a 3/4th profile View. Draw lines as seen in the following figure. Higher Malar eminence is identified by
1. Higher vertical position of the intercession
2. Less area on the background of the angle
3. Degree of angle is Less

2. Measuring Positioning of Malar Region:

a) The most basic way to identify is to draw a horizontal line intersecting the Malar region. Then, draw 2 more horizontal lines, one parallel to the lower eyelid, and one parallel to the nasal base. Measure the vertical distance from the Malar line to each of these lines, Ideally the malar line is extremely close to the eye, but in some cases it can even be closer to the nasal base.

b) Powell's Analysis:
Draw a horizontal line, intersecting the most prominent part of the malar region. Draw a line intersecting the nasal base, and medial canthus of the eye. Then draw a line with the same angle starting from mouth commissure. The point of intersection of the horizontal line and this line is the region of malar prominence. Ideally 15-20mm from the medial canthus. The higher, the more potential for hollow cheeks.

Notice how doing these tests on Andreas Eriksen shows us why he is able to have such hollow cheeks. These measurements are the ones highlighted

the most obvious point is that you need to be low body fat for the hollowness to be accentuated. A large buccal fat pad prevents hollow cheeks in even individuals with otherwise great bones. There is no excuse to be High bodyfat

Isn't it mostly about the canine fossa?
