The "triangle of youth" is a facial map shaped like a triangle, which shows the fuller parts of our faces. When we're young the triangle faces downward, as most of our fat is in the forehead, cheeks, and around the eyes and lips. When we get older the triangle inverses, as sagging skin weighs down our faces and makes us start to look noticeably different.
