有研究觉得，常常用智能手机和手提电脑会致使人的面部皮肤和肌肉失去弹性，由于大家低头坐着的时间愈加多。

Confirming the condition, coined 'smartphone face', Dr Mervyn Patterson of the Woodford Medical group said: 'If you sit for hours with your head bent slightly forward, staring at your iPhone or lapTOP screen, you may shorten the neck muscles and increase the gravitational pull on the jowl area, leading to a drooping^{3 jawline.'}

伍德福德医疗集团的梅尔弗因派特森大夫将这一症状确诊为智能手机脸，他说：假如你连坐数小时，头一直稍微前倾盯着iPhone或手提电脑的屏幕，会使颈部肌肉缩短，从而增加脸颊部位遭到的地心引力，致使下颌松垂。
