“…Al-Qattan et al20 reported that Turkish population had the lowest nasal width value among people of Middle Eastern descent. Unlike the study of Al-Qattan et al, the morphological nasal width data obtained in our study revealed that Iranian population (men, 36.7±2.5 mm; women, 32.8±2.2 mm) had narrower values and the Egyptian population (men, 41.31±2.40 mm; women, 39.31±2.47 mm) and Saudi Arabian men (38.5±3.1 mm) had higher values than those found in our study; the values noted in Saudi Arabian women were similar to those of our study (35.6±3.3 mm) 20–22. The fact that these studies included general populations may be the reason for the difference.…”

This study aimed to determine the mean values of the nasal anthropometric measurements through 2-dimensional photogrammetry in for rhinoplasty patients. The study group included 72 healthy individuals, 36 men, and 36 women. The patients were aged 18 to 42 years. All patients had undergone primary rhinoplasty in our clinic between 2013 and 2020. Seven landmarks were identified from the preoperative photographs taken with the patient's head in neutral position in the frontal and lateral planes. Five distances (total nasal length, nasal bridge length, morphological nose width, alar length, and nasal tip protrusion) and 2 angles (nasofrontal and nasolabial) measurements were calculated. We noted a statistically significant difference between the male and female sexes in terms of total nasal length and morphological nose width (P < 0.05). The results were compared with the nasal anthropometric measurements reported in the literature for the Turkish population as well as other ethnic groups. We believe results of this study may facilitate preoperative planning in Turkish patients who request rhinoplasty and improve the success rate of the surgery.

“…The small amount of literature describing the anthropometry of people of Middle Eastern descent is focused on specific geographic regions and includes studies describing Iranian, Lebanese, Saudi Arabian, Egyptian, and Emirati anthropometry 35–42 . Understanding these variations is part of a well‐rounded baseline knowledge, and personalized assessment for each patient is needed.…”

[35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42] Understanding these variations is part of a wellrounded baseline knowledge, and personalized assessment for each patient is needed. Facial shape, convexity, and proportions are highly variable among Middle Easterners, and perceptions of these features can be shaped by the high degree of ethnic diversity exhibited by people with Middle Eastern heritage.…”

Background The Middle East has a significant influence on the global aesthetic market. Within the United States and globally, patients with Middle Eastern heritage have a wide range of ethnic and cultural backgrounds that affect their perceptions of beauty and motivations to seek cosmetic treatment. Aims The aim of this roundtable was to discuss similarities and differences in anatomy and treatment preferences of Middle Eastern patients and explore how these differences may influence aesthetic practices. Patients/Methods In support of clinicians who wish to serve a diverse patient population, a 6‐part international roundtable series focused on diversity in aesthetics was conducted from August 24, 2021, to May 16, 2022. Results The results of the fourth roundtable in the series, the Middle Eastern Patient, are described here. A discussion of treatment preferences is included, and specific procedural information is provided for commonly treated areas in this population (forehead, infraorbital area, and jawline). Conclusions Middle Eastern patients have a variety of aesthetic preferences, which are influenced by a wide range of cultural backgrounds, making it difficult to develop general statements about this demographic. There is an unmet need for research into this diverse group of patients to help physicians understand and incorporate their unique needs and desires into clinical practice.

“…Understanding the characteristics of the human nose, the different angles and measurements, and the diversity of the noses among different ethnicities is important for rhinoplasty surgeons during the perioperative planning phase so that the esthetic appearance of the face could be achieved and culturally accepted outcomes could be ensured 3. Although the noses of Middle Eastern individuals can be applied to 4 races (Arabic, Turkish, Persian, and North African), previous studies have described them with a focus on the Persian nose4,5,8–10 Only 1 study measured the anthropometry of Arabian women noses 2. In this study, we compared the angular variables of Arabian women patients undergoing rhinoplasty with previously measured angular variables in the general women population.…”

The purpose of this study is to determine the average values of the angular nasal anthropometric variables in Arabian women seeking rhinoplasty and compare them with the normal values. A total of 150 female patients, who underwent rhinoplasty between January 2018 and November 2021, were enrolled in this study. The exclusion criteria were a history of nasal trauma, previous rhinoplasty, and a cleft nose. Data were obtained from standardized digital photographic images. Lateral and basal views were analyzed using landmarks defined by a single observer and measurements were performed using Adobe Photoshop Software SC6. All data were analyzed using SPSS version 21 software (IBM) and compared with the normal values obtained from a previous study. All facial angles, except for the nasofrontal angles, were significantly different between the surgical and nonsurgical normal groups. The values (means ± SDs) in the surgical group were as follows: nasofacial angle, 29.7 ± 3.4 degrees; nasofrontal angle, 146.2 ± 2.8 degrees; glabella-nasal angle, 169.8 ± 5.8 degrees; nasolabial angle, 113.5 ± 11 degrees; nasomental angle, 130.6 ± 6 degrees; nasal tip angle, 102.3 ± 8 degrees; ala-slope angle, 95.4 ± 13.6 degrees. The nose characteristics of Arabian women seeking rhinoplasty were as follows: (1) shallow radix, (2) under the projected tip, and (3) normal tip rotation. Surgical planning is important upon consideration of any procedure or modification of the nose among Arabian women.
