Horizontal Ratio of the Korean University Student"s Face and Facial Golden Mask

Purpose: Many attempts have been made to describe ideal facial proportions for over two thousands year and constantly lasted till now. Dr. Marquardt has derived supposedly ideal facial proportions from the facial golden mask using golden ratio of 1:1.618. On the other hand, facial reducing surgeries such as mandible angle reduction are popularized in Asia because the width of mid and lower face of Korean is recognized to be wider. The purpose is to analyze characters of Korean university students" faces in horizontal plane and establish the objective data for facial width distributions and clinical applications. Methods: We applied the facial golden mask to the photographs in 1000 cases, compared the width of mid and lower face between the facial golden mask and Korean university students" faces. And we first calculated the horizontal ratio(HR) of middle and lower face each for using comparative scale of width, facial golden mask. We divided 1,000 cases into 3 groups by degrees of HR and analyzed data of HR on each groups. Using calculated horizontal ratio, we newly invented the cumulative frequency of distribution graphs in Korean university students" faces.

Results: Mean data of HR were over 1.0 in all groups, which means that Korean university students" faces are typically wider than facial golden mask in horizontal planes. And this study was statistically significant(p- value<0.05). Clinically using the cumulative frequency distributions of Korean university students" face width, we can easily explain changes of facial width to patient after facial reducing surgery and describe the changes into objective data. Conclusion: This study concludes thatKorean university students" faces are wider than facial golden mask is significantly true and the cumulative frequency of distribution graphs are expected to be widely used for comparison of results in facial reducing surgery.
