Zusammenfassung

A fotographic study was made in 501 students from Granada (275 females, 226 males) in order to analyse facial profile changes from 4 up to 15 years of age. Sex differences were taken into account. The results were compared with those obtained by other authors in a variety of ethnic groups. Main conclusions are: there is no profile difference between both sexes; Naso-glabelar angle opens with age in males and females; profile gets more retrusive with age, this is more marked in males; in our poppulation there is nose retrusiveness and a greek profile tendency.
