Anatomy and ideal proportion:<\/h3>\n

The nose is a major element in the harmony of the face.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The ideal nose is defined by a multitude of artistic anatomical criteria: a projection\/length ratio equal to 0.67, a naso-frontal angle (between the nose and the forehead) between 115 and 130\u00b0 (close to 115\u00b0 for men and closer to 130\u00b0 for women: in fact, a nose with a more closed naso-frontal angle is a criterion of masculinity), a slight depression above the tip “supratip break” of between 5 and 12\u00b0 for women, and an angulation below the tip “columellar double break” of between 30 and 45\u00b0. Then, a naso-labial angle between 95 and 105\u00b0 (closer to 95\u00b0 for men and closer to 105\u00b0 for women).<\/p>\n

Artistically, Sheen’s lines, which originate from the eyebrows and descend vertically along the nasal bridge and flare out at the tip, must be harmonized during rhinoplasty.<\/p>\n
