Yes, faces change: As we grow older, the shape of our ears, eyes, nose, and mouth all change. You may notice that not only have your eyes changed but all of your facial features have changed slightly. This is due to growth of your underlying bones, development of muscle, loss of fat deposits, and maturation of your skin due to the effect of hormones.
