ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Beauty criteria change according to trends, cultures, and expectations. So, the golden ratios are not enough to understand the actual beauty concept.OBJECTIVE:
It is aimed to create a method and formula to define beauty in terms of different facial measurements and ratios as variables.METHODS:
Frontal view photographs of 50 celebrities and 50 volunteers (female [ n = 70] and male [ n = 30]) were obtained. Thirty-three specific facial points were used. Fifty-nine measurements of distances between those points and ratios of those distances are used as statistical variables. Mean values of those variables for celebrities are compared with all participants.Then, ''total beauty score'' using statically significant differences is defined. Points according to the importance level of interested value are assigned; 1 point for a significance of 0.001 ≤ P < 0.05 and 2 points for P < 0.001. Possible independent variables for the prediction of Utopian Beauty Score were determined using linear regression analysis. Finally, 10 variables (6 measurements and 4 ratios) are used to determine a formula for beauty.RESULTS:
In celebrities, the distance between head apex and hair border, lower lip vertical length, the distance between brow medial borders and forehead vertical length were higher than the average population ( P < 0.001, 0.023, 0.034, 0.001, respectively). However, the width of columella, a length between bilateral ala nasi, horizontal face, and vertical nose length, and the distance between brow apexeyelash line were shorter ( P = 0.005, < 0.001, < 0.001, < 0.001, < 0.001, respectively). Some study variables had severely significant correlations with the total beauty point (M29, r = -0.744, P < 0.001; R19, r =-0.745, P < 0.001; and R30, r = -0.735, P < 0.001). The linear regression formula for Utopian Beauty Score was determined according to statistically significant variables as y = 86.5 - 3.6 M5 + 8.1 M14 + 11.1 M20 - 6.4 M25-8.7 M29-10.3 M30-15.6 R19 + 9.3 R20 + 16.4 R25 + 18.3 R26.CONCLUSIONS:
A large forehead, small nose with lifted tip, plump lip, brows with lateral apex, well-spaced eyes, and ovoid, elliptical face lines are seem to be more attractive. Additionally, a method to create a formula for beauty with variables of different measurements and ratios of facial points are determined.
