Determination and analysis of facial-cervical region, body height and weight index of college undergraduates / 中华医学美学美容杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate facial-cervical index difference in undergraduates of different height or weight in Han nationality to provide an additional reference for plastic surgery of facialcervical region.Methods Subjects consisted of 200 college undergraduates of Han nationality,aged 20 to 24 years,with average 22.9 ± 1.7,of whom 100 were male and 100 were female.Their height,weight,bizygomatic breadth,facial height,cervical height,neck circumference,neck breadth,shoulder width,cervical-mandibular angle,thorax-cervical angle,shoulder-cervical angle,pulvinar-cervical angle and back-cervical angle were measured and calculated.Results The differences among the indices mentioned above were of statistical significance (P＜0.05);the indices of female subjects of different height were significantly different (P＜0.05);the differences in indices of male subjects of different weight were of statistical significance (P＜0.05);the indices of female subjects of different weight were also statistically different (P＜0.05).The facial-cervical indices in both male and female subjects of different height or weight were of no stistical difference (P＞0.05).Conclusions Male subjects of different height or weight have different cervical height,cervical-mandibular angle,neck height and facial height indices are different;hence,the indices are related to body height;female subjects of different body height have different neck height.Subjects of different weight have different neck circumference,neck breadth,should breadth,shoulder-cervical angle and pulvinar-cervical angle.
