Method of research: Cross sectional study in over 905 males and 908 females at some secondary schools in Hanoi city. Results: In the three face shapes, in general, the horizontal dimensions have changes, the difference is mostly significant. In general, there is no difference in the profile of the face angles, a few differences only show. In one gender, most of the vertical differences are statistically highly significant on three types of faces and also show the difference between the sexes. Conclusions: The most common type of face is Oval (48.98%), followed by square (29.18%), the lowest is triangular (21.84%). The face shape corresponds to the facial proportions: The square face has the ratio Ft-Ft = Zy-Zy, the oval face with Zy-Zy> Ft-Ft and Zy-Zy> Go-Go, and the triangle face with Ft-Ft> Zy-Zy> Go-Go.
