See Your Face in 3D

Upload one front selfie and get a 3D model of your face in a few seconds. Spin it to see your profile and three-quarter angles you never see in a mirror, switch to clay to see the shape alone, and save a picture of it. No app, no depth camera, and your photo never leaves your device.

How it is measured

478 points, one surface.

A face-mesh model places 478 points on your photo, each with an estimated depth: how far forward the nose tip, the lips and the chin sit compared with the cheeks and the forehead. Those points are joined into the standard 898-triangle face surface, and your photo is laid over it. It runs on your device in the browser. Because the depth comes from a single photo rather than a depth camera, the side view is a close approximation, not a scan.

Photo
Your own photo on the 3D surface, from any angle.
Clay
The surface alone, lit like a sculpture: the clearest way to see your shape.
Mesh
The 478-point mesh the model is built from.
Reshape
Narrower nose and fuller lips are free; chin, jaw and nose bridge are in Symmi Lab. Hold to see the before.

How to get the best 3D face

  1. 1Take a straight-on selfie with the camera at eye level, an arm's length away.
  2. 2Look into the lens with a relaxed, closed mouth. A turned head makes one side of the model lopsided.
  3. 3Use even daylight and take glasses off: frames sit over the points around the eyes.
  4. 4Upload it and drag the model to turn it. Try the clay look to see your shape without skin tone.

FAQ

How can one photo make a 3D face?+

The face-mesh model was trained on many faces with known 3D shape, so it estimates how far each of 478 points sits in depth from a single image. That is enough for a convincing 3D face from the front and at an angle; a depth camera or several photos would be needed for a true scan.

How accurate is the side view?+

It follows the overall shape well, such as how far the nose and chin come forward, but fine detail such as a small bump on the nose bridge is smoothed. For measured profile angles, use the side profile analysis with a real side photo.

Can I change my nose or lips on the 3D model?+

Yes. A narrower nose and fuller lips are free, shown on your photo and on the 3D face. A longer or more forward chin, a slimmer jaw and a smoother nose bridge are part of Symmi Lab.

Do I need an app or a Face ID iPhone?+

No. It runs in any modern browser on a phone or computer, from an ordinary photo.

Is my photo uploaded?+

No. The 3D face is built on your device and your photo never leaves it.
