How does the face recognition system recognize situations where the facial appearance is changed by makeup, plastic surgery, etc.?

In today's era of rapid technological development, face recognition systems have been widely used in various fields. However, when people's facial appearance changes due to makeup or plastic surgery, the recognition ability of face recognition systems faces severe challenges.
Makeup, as a common cosmetic method, can significantly change a person's facial features. For example, the use of eye shadow, blush and lipstick can change the color distribution of the face; the use of contouring and highlighting products can reshape the contours of the face. These changes may affect the face recognition system's extraction and comparison of key facial features. For some simple daily makeup, the face recognition system may still be able to effectively recognize it through algorithms and deep learning technology. But for heavy makeup, especially those that deliberately change the facial contours and facial features, the recognition difficulty may be greatly increased.
Plastic surgery is a deeper change to the appearance of the face. For example, rhinoplasty, bone cutting, filling and other operations directly change the bone structure and soft tissue morphology of the face. These fundamental changes may cause huge deviations in the original facial feature data that the face recognition system relies on. Although modern face recognition systems have certain adaptability and learning capabilities, their recognition accuracy may be greatly affected for faces that have undergone major plastic surgery.
In order to meet these challenges, researchers are constantly improving the algorithms and models of face recognition systems. By introducing more dimensional feature extraction and combining information such as facial texture and muscle movement patterns, the recognition ability of faces after makeup and plastic surgery is improved. At the same time, a large amount of data training is also key, allowing the system to be exposed to a variety of different facial changes, thereby enhancing its generalization ability.
However, while pursuing improved recognition capabilities, we also need to think about related ethical and legal issues. For example, how to ensure that individuals' autonomous choices and privacy rights are not violated, and how to regulate the application of face recognition systems in these special cases.
In short, changes in facial appearance such as makeup and plastic surgery do pose challenges to the recognition ability of face recognition systems, but with the continuous advancement and improvement of technology, I believe that in the future, face recognition systems will be able to better adapt to these changes, while ensuring safety and convenience, and balancing personal rights and social needs.
