Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the the brow position and shape in young Chinese women using a photography measurement.Methods A total of 100 Chinese women aged 20 to 30 years were photographed to determine the distance between brow and eye.Measurements were made from a horizontal plane through the lateral canthus of right eye to three vertical points on the upper brow margin at the medial canthus,lateral limbus of the iris,and lateral canthus.Results The distance between brow and eye in young Chinese women was 2.12,2.52 and 2.46 cm at medial canthus,lateral limbus of the iris and lateral canthus,respectively.The distances were higher between the brows and eyes at lateral limbus of the iris and lateral canthus than that at medial canthus (P＜0.05).Conclusions The measurement used in this study is a simple and practical quantitative method.The results can be used to guide the surgical choice and help to evaluate the surgical techniques.
