Highlights from the Face Matrix Championship 2024 Paris
The world's first evaluation standards! Assess changes in visible beauty with AI.
ViEW=TECH is a cutting-edge evaluation device that measures changes in visible beauty by analyzing the distances, angles, and areas of facial features based on professionally taken photographs.
The two main focus points of evaluation are:
"4V" (change in sagging degree)
"6D" (change in facial contour)
It is designed to accurately assess changes in visual appearance.
To quantify changes in appearance, we spent six years training AI with a vast dataset of approximately 200,000 facial images.
As a result, we discovered that facial appearance is primarily influenced by around ten key facial points. Our AI-based facial measurement system, ViEW=TECH, quantitatively analyzes these changes.
The competition is not about whether the face has simply become smaller, but rather:
Has the facial appearance improved? Have facial concerns been resolved?
Participants compete based on the numerical changes in these factors.
Evaluation of the Winner from the Previous Competition (FMC 2024 Paris):
Significant improvements were observed in D1, which enhances the impression of the eye area, and D3, which refines the appearance of the cheeks. As a result, the overall facial expression appeared more sculpted and defined.
Furthermore, the cheek point (V1)—a difficult area to alter—was significantly lifted, narrowing the width of the cheeks and creating an even more beautiful facial appearance.
Among approximately 1,000 preliminary round participants,
the top 52 will be recognized as professionals who transform faces and featured on
the official Face Matrix Conference website,
with an introduction to their salon and profile.

FMA Concept The vision of Face Matrix Academia
This competition brings together top facialists with groundbreaking technology that can transform the face in just five minutes, in pursuit of a new standard of beauty known as "The 3rd Beauty."
Unlike "1st Beauty" (cosmetics and esthetics) and "2nd Beauty" (aesthetic medicine), this approach explores the possibilities of facial sculpting that utilizes the bone structure—without cutting, shaving, or injecting.
Our core philosophy is to nurture self-love through the realization of individual beauty, rather than fostering self-dislike.
