The width of 1/3 in the plane is mainly determined by the height of zygomatic bone and zygomatic arch. The height of cheekbones is related to the proportion of other parts of the face. For example, the width of mandible and the width of temporal bone are related to the development of temporal muscle. In addition, whether the cheekbones are obviously prominent is also related to the amount of subcutaneous fat. For example, if there is too little subcutaneous fat, people will obviously lose weight, and cheekbones and zygomatic arches may also appear higher.

Therefore, the height of zygomatic bone and zygomatic arch belongs to a relative concept, and there is no clear boundary and diagnostic standard. Because the size of zygomatic bone and zygomatic arch can be clearly distinguished by naked eyes in daily life and clinic, high zygomatic bone can be divided into "true" high zygomatic bone and "false" high zygomatic bone.
