With rapid advancement in techniques of correcting multiple facial anomalies, surgical planning has become more sophisticated, and knowledge of the exact relationship between various areas of the head and face is now indispensible. The importance of capturing the face in proportions has been emphasized by many surgeons. The neoclassical canons are known to modern plastic surgeons, but their usage in surgical planning has been limited to the role of working guides. They are useful, however, in serving as standards. The authors measured 800 normal young Korean females, ranged from 19 to 26 in age, and 21 beauty contestants in Korea, ranged from 20 to 27 in age. Seven vertical and seven horizontal linear measurements were taken from each subject by one examiner. These measurements of normal face and attractive face are compared with each other, and followed by comparison with neoclassical canons. Attractive face of Korean female comprises shorter lower face, especially from stomion to menton, narrower bigonial distance, and longer midface than normal face. It also has wide palpebral fissure and narrow intercanthal distance. Korean female face comprises shorter and narrower lower face than neoclassical canons. We think that it is valuable to take into consideration of this modern concept of beauty when making a preoperative plan for facial plastic surgery.

5.Photogrammetric study and classification of the lip in korean adult female.
Journal of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons 1998;25(8):1404-1415
Photogrammetric analysis and study of the beauty sense for lip are important for the planning of aesthetic and reconstructive lip surgery. The purpose of this study is to determine average value of the lip dimensions and to classify shape of the lip in Korean adult female. We took measurements from life sized photographs of the one hundred Korean adult female aged from twenty to forty nine years. We have classified shape of the lip as seven types by measured heights of upper and lower vermilion. Measured data were analysed to obtain mean, standard deviation and proportional indices. The following results were obtained.1. The mean and standard deviation of photogrammetric measurements of lip were presented below; philtral length was 15.2+/-2.0 mm, height of maximal point of Cupid's bow was 9.7+/-1.5 mm, upper vermilion height was 8.2+/-1.4 mm, lower vermilion was 10.9+/-1.4 mm, lower facial height was 67.5+/-4.5 mm, mouth width was 46.9+/-3.6 mm, bialar was 37.8 +/-2.6 mm, nasolabial angle was 87.0+/-9.0.2. The standard proportional indices of lip dimension were presented below; mouth width-lower facial height index was 69.6+/-6.3%, bialar width-lower facial height index was 56.2+/-4.5%, nose-mouth width index was 81.0+/-5.5%, upper and lower vermilion height-lower facial height index 28.3+/-3.5%, upper and lower vermilion height-mouth width index was 40.9+/-5.3%, philtral length-mouth width index 32.6+/-5.2%, upper vermilion-lower vermilion height index was 76.4+/-13.8%. 3. The classification of shape of the lip is presented below; standard type is most frequent type(55%) and the upper and lower vermilion height is measured within mean +/- 1 SD, second most common type is upper thick type(10%), upper thin type is 9%, lower thick type is 8%, both thick type is 7%, lower thin type is 6%, both thin type is 5%.

Neuroaesthetics is an area of research on the essence of aesthetic experience according to the neurobiological perspective. The purpose of this article is to introduce both the important results from some studies based on neuroaesthetics and some neuroaesthetic reports in specific psychiatric disease. Aesthetic experience is thought to be a series of cognitive and affective processes for pursuing aesthetic judgment and aesthetic emotion. According to the present neuroaesthetic studies, the important domains are reward system, embodiment, aesthetic perspective in contrast with practical perspective, sublime, and so on. The neuroaesthetic approach to specific psychiatric disease is just beginning; however, case studies on the sudden appearance of artistic talents in neuropsychiatric patients have been frequently reported. We expect that neuroaesthetics is likely to continue to contribute new knowledge regarding the ultimate causes of various psychiatric diseases and the creativity of many psychiatric patients.

BACKGROUND: In the absence of clear guidelines for facial aesthetic surgery, most surgeons rely on expert intuitive judgement when planning aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. One of the most famous theories regarding “ideal” facial proportions is that of the golden proportion. However, there are conflicting opinions as to whether it can be used to assess facial attractiveness. The aim of this investigation was to assess facial ratios of professional black models and to compare the ratios with the golden proportion. METHODS: Forty photographs of male and female professional black models were collected. Observers were asked to assign a score from 1 to 10 (1 = not very attractive, 10 = very attractive). A total of 287 responses were analysed for grading behaviour according to various demographic factors by two groups of observers. The best graded photographs were compared with the least well-graded photographs to identify any differences in their facial ratios. The models’ facial ratios were calculated and compared with the golden proportion. RESULTS: Differences in grading behaviour were observed amongst the two assessment groups. Only one out of the 12 facial ratios was not significantly different from the golden proportion. CONCLUSIONS: Only one facial ratio was observed to be similar to the golden proportion in professional model facial photographs. No correlation was found between facial ratios in professional black models with the golden proportion. It is proposed that an individualistic treatment for each ratio is a rather better method to guide future practice.

The aim of this study is to measure and to analyze the Buddha's face of Korea dynasty and Joseon dynasty in buddhist paintings. We also attempted to compare the Buddha's face with the face of the beauty of Joseon dynasty. Six paintings of the Korea dynasty and ten paintings of the Joseon dynasty were analyzed. Twenty anthropometric items on each paintings were measured and 17 proportional indices were calculated. There was no significant differences between the proportions of the Buddha's face of the Korea and Joseon dynasty except the thickness of the vermilion where the Korea dynasty were thicker than Joseon dynasty. Proportions of the Buddha's face was very similar to that of Beauty of Jeseon dynasty except three points. The differences are as follow. First, Buddha's ears are longer than the beauty's. Second, Buddha's eye inclination was higher than the beauty's. Third, Buddha's vermilion was thicker than the beauty's. The similarity of the proportions of the face of Buddha and the beauty strongly suggest that in the Korea dynasty and Joseon dynasty, the ideal face were regarded as Buddha's face.

As the social common notion of aesthetic surgery had been changed and the interest of the beauty of the human being had been increased, the aesthetic surgery has rapidly increased since 1980s. This study was purposed to analyze the relation of expectations and satisfactions of college women who are sensitive to the change of fashion about aesthetic surgery. We surveyed 193 college women by questionnaire for a month. Chi-square test and t-test were used for data analysis. As a result, we found that the more college women were interested in their own appearance, the more they had operations. Many respondents who had not experienced aesthetic surgery did not want to get an operation mainly due to fear of side-effects. The expectation before operation was higher than satisfaction after operation, especially in the case of inexperienced respondents. We concluded that some effective measure to reduce the gap between expectation and satisfaction of latent customers, and improvement of satisfaction would be needed.

Journal of the Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery 2010;16(1):9-14
Orthognathic surgery became more popular because people are more interested in facial profile changes and are more receptive to surgery. As people seek beauty as well as function in maxillofacial surgery, patient's aesthetic demand becomes higher. Considering these big changes, one of the major reasons is surgery-first orthognathic approach(SFOA), which removes pre-surgical orthodontic treatment. Pre-surgical orthodontic time has been a great barrier to patients in terms of time and social rehabilitation. By SFOA, patients can get surgery as soon as they make up their mind; Patients from abroad can get surgery and get back to their country; They can go back to their work more easily because their occlusion is more acceptable. Surgery first orthognathic approach is still developing in practice and principle. However, as it is based on patient's need, it will play a greater part in the field of orthognathic surgery. Surgery first orthognathic approach together with aesthetic two jaw surgery are expected to change the paradigm in orthognathic surgery.
