What age would you form prominent cheekbones?

Question

I've got a thin, longish, angular face with prominent nose and chin, square jaw etc., but noticed that my cheekbones don't stick out, or aren't hollow. I'm 18 years old, do you think they could develop or isn't it likely?

Answer 1

It's genetic, and you would know by now. People that have them have always had them, even if they had to lose weight to uncover them. They don't just magically appear.

Except with surgery. :)

Answer 2

it just depends on your genetics.  they don't just appear out of thin air.

maybe you aren't meant to have them!

Answer 3

i dont think you will have them

im 14 and mine are prominent already

Answer 4

You either have them, or you don't, they're bones. You can lose weight to make them more prominent, or get implants, which is kinda gross.

Answer 5

...uh...they can, I guess... but if they stick out too much, you'll look like you have AIDS...
