“…Baykal et al (2014) published a series of 47 patients who presented "hump deformities" and "nasal axis deviations", which were treated with open or closed rhinoplasty; satisfaction from 21% to 72% was observed in the postoperative stage, with significant differences in all the assessments. Studies by Uzun & Ozdemir (2014) also showed similar results.…”

SUMMARY: Dentofacial deformities present some shades and variations that determine the inclusion of different anatomical components as part of the disease; the aim of this study was to ascertain the nasal characteristics in patients with a Class III dentofacial deformity. A descriptive study was conducted on 20 patients diagnosed with a Class III facial deformity and a surgical indication; frontal and lateral as well as CT images were taken to analyze variables of nasal morphology and deformities associated with the nasal bridge, tip and septum. The results showed that the nasal angles are outside normal parameters and that the basal width of the nose is approximately 3 mm smaller than the intercanthal width; 45% of the subjects have lateral deviations, 50% bridge deformity and 80% septum deviation. It is concluded that there are nasal deformities in subjects with a Class III facial deformity and that this component must be carefully evaluated in the preoperative stage.

“…Table 3 presents reported results by various authors. Uzun and Ozdemir (2014) reported on NFR, NTA, and NLA of the external nose in Turkish population [8]. Interestingly, their study reported acute values for female NTA, which meant that high proportion of Turkish females have pointed noses.…”

“…Minimal variations were observed in relation to NFA and NMA amongst ethnic groups of various studies. However, when it comes to Present study methodology was similar to that adopted by Uzun and associates [8]. However, Eliakim-Ikechukwu et al [9] and Anibor et al [10] also adopted similar methodology, except for the fact that they used lateral photograph printouts and then measured the angles on the hard copies.…”

“…FH plane is defined by a line connecting the orbital (the lowest point of the infraorbital margin) and the porion (point at the upper edge of the auditory meatus) or tragion (landmark on the upper edge of the tragus), and can be achieved by judging the relationship of upper and lower edges of the ear to the eye brow level and the ala level, respectively [8].…”

“…Normally, both angles range from 85 to 105 degrees and females tend to have more obtuse values compared to males. NMA normally ranges from 120 to 130 degrees [8][9][10]. Prime objective of the present study was to describe the external nose angulations of Medical students (representing South Indian population) from Velammal Medical College Hospital and Research Institute, Madurai, Tamil Nadu.…”

What Do We Find Attractive about the Face?: Survey Study with Application to Aesthetic Surgery

The appearance of the face is one of the most important factors influencing our perception of beauty. However, few studies have attempted to quantitate what one perceives as beauty. Therefore, this study was conducted with the goal of providing physicians with anatomical data that demonstrate which facial traits most influence our perception of one's attractiveness. In the first phase of the study, faces of 60 participants (30 males and 30 females) were photographed. Next, the photographs were shown to another group of 120 study members (60 males and 60 females), who evaluated the facial features using a Visual Analogue Scale. The highest rated facial parts were then measured using the ImageJ program. In men, the most attractive parts of the face were Type 1:2 lips, a Type IV nose of medium width, blue eyes, brown hair, and a very narrow face. Among females, the most attractive parts of the face were Type 2:1 lips, Type III and V noses of medium width, dark brown eyes, blonde hair, and a narrow face. This is the first study in which the most aesthetically important facial parts have been comprehensively examined. The results obtained in our study show a higher degree of representativeness compared to other studies due to a different methodological approach and can be used as an aesthetic guide and can help in the planning of aesthetic surgery such as lip augmentation and rhinoplasty.
