Why do celebrities have pointed chins? Revealing the aesthetic trends in the entertainment industry
In recent years, celebrities' pointed chins have become a standard feature in the entertainment industry. Whether it is red carpet looks or social media selfies, a pointed chin seems to have become synonymous with "good looks." Behind this phenomenon, there are both the promotion of aesthetic trends and the invisible constraints of industry standards. This article will combine the hot topics and hot content on the Internet in the past 10 days to analyze why celebrities prefer pointed chins and explore the social and cultural background of this phenomenon.
1. Three reasons why a pointed chin has become the standard feature of celebrities

1.Lens slimming requirements: In movies, TV dramas and variety shows, the camera will widen the face, and a pointed chin can neutralize this effect and make the face more photogenic.

3.Popularization of medical beauty technology: Micro-plastic surgery techniques such as hyaluronic acid fillers and face-slimming needles make it easier to achieve a pointed chin. Many celebrities openly admit to using medical aesthetics to adjust their face shape.
