# How FaceIQ Labs works

From two photos to a full report: the flow, the pillars, and what to do with your results.

FaceIQ Labs turns two photos of your face into a structured report: dozens of measurements, four pillar scores, a list of strengths and flaws, and, on Pro, a plan for what to do about them. This page walks through the whole flow once so the rest of the Help Center makes sense.

## The flow in five steps

1. 1  
#### Sign in with Google  
There is no password. Your account is tied to the Google account you sign in with, so always use the same one. See [Account, photos & privacy](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/account) if you have trouble getting back in.
2. 2  
#### Upload a front photo and a side profile  
Both are needed for a complete Harmony score. Roughly 60% of the Harmony points come from the front view and 40% from the side. Photo quality is the single biggest factor in accuracy; read [Taking the right photos](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/photos) before your first analysis.
3. 3  
#### Place and review your landmarks  
Landmarks are the anatomical points (pupils, nose tip, jaw angles, and so on) every measurement is calculated from. The AI places them automatically, but it can be a few millimetres off — enough to move a score. If you want full accuracy, choose **Manual review** and check every point before the analysis is created. You can also edit landmarks later on any analysis. See [Why is my rating inaccurate?](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/accuracy)
4. 4  
#### Get your analysis  
Measurements are computed from your landmarks and compared to ideal ranges. The result is organised into four pillars, Harmony, Angularity, Dimorphism and Features, each scored 0–10, plus an overall score. What every number means is explained in [Understanding your scores](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/scores).
5. 5  
#### Act on it, then re-analyse  
Your dashboard keeps every analysis. Re-run one after a change (weight, grooming, a treatment) and compare. Pro adds a personalised [action plan](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/action-plan), [treatment simulations](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/simulate) on your own photo, and [FaceGPT](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/facegpt) for questions about your results.

## The four pillars

Attractiveness is not one number, so the analysis is split into four independent pillars. Each is scored on the same 0–10 scale and each is documented in its own guide.

- [Harmony](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/harmony): Proportion and balance. 70+ ratios and angles measured from your landmarks, each compared to an ideal range.
- [Angularity](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/angularity): Definition of the bone structure: jaw, chin, submental region, cheekbones and cheek leanness.
- [Dimorphism](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/dimorphism): How masculine or feminine each region reads, from the jaw and brow ridge to hair and lips.
- [Features](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/features): Skin, under-eyes, creasing, sclera, eyelids, nose shape, hair, brows and lashes, and symmetry.

## Around the dashboard

### Analysis tabs

- **Harmony**: your front and side scores, every ratio with its ideal range, and your strengths and flaws.
- **Angularity, Dimorphism, Features**: the individual assessments behind each pillar score. Each has a guide in the Help Center explaining exactly what is being assessed and what each level looks like.
- **Options**: where you edit landmarks and recalculate, set the analysis parameters (gender and ethnicity, which select the ideal ranges you are compared against), adjust display settings, and delete the analysis.
- **Compare**: put two analyses side by side to track change over time.

### Pro tools

- [Action Plan](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/action-plan): non-invasive and surgical options ranked by how much they would move your scores.
- [Simulate](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/simulate): preview treatments live on your photo, or drag any ratio toward its ideal range to see the effect.
- [FaceGPT](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/facegpt): ask questions about your own results; it has your measurements as context.

> What the scores are, and are not
> 
> The measurements are objective geometry, but the ideal ranges and the way they are combined encode aesthetic research, not a law of nature. Treat scores as a structured, repeatable guide to your proportions rather than a verdict. Nothing here is medical advice.

## Plans in one paragraph

The **Free** plan gives you a side-profile score, ten facial ratios and two strengths and flaws so you can see how the system works on your own face. **Basic** unlocks the full Harmony score, all ratios, all Angularity, Dimorphism and Features assessments, unlimited analyses and progress tracking. **Pro** adds the action plan, simulations, FaceGPT and score projections. Details, prices and how billing periods work are in [Plans, upgrades & receipts](https://www.faceiqlabs.com/support/plans).
