Abstract

Background: The nose is one of the aesthetic units of the face, decisive for the aesthetics of the entire face. Objective: To determine the average measurements of nasal indices and their relationship with the morphological characteristics of the nasal-facial region. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on students studying at Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine from May 2020 to January 2021. Nasal anthropometric measurements were taken indirectly through digital images using Image J software at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology and Education. Results: Among 182 participating students, 55.5% were female, with ages ranging from 20 to 26 years, and an average age of 22 years. Most students had an anteriorly inclined profile, accounting for 97.8%. Regarding nasal bridge types, there were no cases of a broken nose; the highest proportion was students with a convex nose at 53.3%, followed by a straight nose at 42.3%. The Baum ratio was 1.72 ± 0.33, and the Goode ratio was 0.51 ± 0.07. Compared to the nasal tip projection, the nasal bridge length is 2.35 times greater and the nasal root height is 0.48 times. The Baum and Goode ratios showed statistically significant differences among different facial types. The ratio of nasal bridge height to nasal tip projection and the Crumley 1 and Crumley 2 ratios showed statistically significant differences among different nasal bridge types (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Nasal indices are closely related to the morphological characteristics of the nasal-facial region. In addition to measuring ideal nasal indices, rhinoplasty surgeons should consider the morphological characteristics of the patient's nasal-facial region to achieve the best aesthetic outcome.
