Technology addicts may be at risk of sagging jowls, according toaesthetic experts。

　　美容專家稱，科技癡迷者們要小心面頰松弛下垂。

　　It is believed that smartphone and laptop use, could cause facialskin and muscle to lose its elasticity as people spend anincreasing amount of time sat with their heads bent。

　　據認為，經常使用智能手機和筆記本電腦會導致人的面部皮膚和肌肉失去彈性，因為人們低頭坐著的時間越來越多。

　　It is now believed that the phenomenon, dubbed 'smartphone face'could be behind the growing trend for skin tightening treatmentsand chin implants which cost around £4,290.

　　專家認為，這種“智能手機臉”現象可能是現在拉皮手術和墊下巴手術日益盛行的背后原因，這種手術花費在4290英鎊左右。

　　According to statistics released by the American Society of PlasticSurgeons (ASPS) 'chinplants' are becoming the fastest growingcosmetic surgery trend。

　　根據美國整形外科學會發布的數據，墊下巴是當前發展勢頭最迅猛的整容手術。

　　In 2011 its popularity grew more than breast augmentation, Botoxand liposuction combined。

　　2011年，隆胸、注射肉毒桿菌和吸脂三個加在一塊，還不如墊下巴流行。

　　And a number of leading doctors believe that technology could bebehind the growing trend, as poor posture can promote saggy jowls,double chins and 'marionette lines' - the creases from the cornersof the mouth down the chin。

　　許多首席醫師認為，技術可能是這一潮流的背后原因，因為姿勢不當會導致臉頰下垂、雙下巴和“木偶紋”——從嘴角到下巴的皺紋。

　　Confirming the condition, coined 'smartphone face', Dr MervynPatterson of the Woodford Medical group told the Evening Standard:'If you sit for hours with your head bent slightly forward, staringat your iPhone or laptop screen, you may shorten the neck musclesand increase the gravitational pull on the jowl area, leading to adrooping jawline.'

　　伍德福德醫療集團的梅爾弗因•派特森醫生將這一癥狀確診為“智能手機臉”，他告訴《標準晚報》說：“如果你連坐數小時，頭總是稍微前傾盯著iPhone或筆記本電腦的屏幕，你會縮短脖子的肌肉，增加臉頰部位受到的地心引力，導致下頜松垂。”

　　According to Ofcom’s 2011 Communication Market Report 91 percent ofadults use a mobile phone while 27 percent opt forsmartphones。

　　根據英國通信業監管機構Ofcom的《2011年通信市場報告》，91%的成人使用手機，27%的成人用的是智能手機。

　　與此同時，健康與安全委員會的遠景掃描論文報告說，到2015年，將有70%到80%的員工會用筆記本電腦遠程辦公，至少部分時間是如此。

　　ASPS president Dr Malcolm Roth also suggests that the use of videochat causes people to be more conscious of their appearance。

　　美國整形外科學會的主席馬爾科姆•羅斯醫生還指出，視頻聊天的使用讓人們更注重自己的形象。

　　'The chin and jawline are among the first areas to show signs ofageing。

　　“臉頰和下頜輪廓是最早出現衰老跡象的地方。

　　'As more people see themselves on video chat technology, they maynotice that their jawline is not as sharp as they want.'

　　“當越來越多的人使用視頻聊天技術看到自己時，他們會注意到自己的下頜輪廓不像自己理想中的那樣線條鮮明。”
