Introduction: The study concentrates on nine neoclassical facial references, canons.

Sample And Methods: These neoclassical canons are studied and compared in two groups of young Caucasian population as follows: 160 students were studied, namely 60 primary school boys at the age of seven and 100 young men at the age ranging from 22 to 25 studying at the Comenius University and Slovak Technical University in Bratislava. The following anthropometric parameters were measured: ten heights, five widths, and two angles.

Conclusion: Some of neoclassical canons have not appeared in our measured group at all. Other canons although present, were present less frequently then their variations. Comparisons with literature are discussed (Tab. 9, Fig. 9, Ref. 7). Full Text (Free, PDF) www.bmj.sk.

 Though in facial plastic surgery, the ideal nasal characteristics are defined by average European-American facial features known as neoclassical cannons, many ethnicities do not perceive these characteristics as suitable.  To investigate the preferences for nasofrontal angle, nasolabial angle, dorsal height, alar width, and nasal tip projection, manipulated pictures of one male and one female model were shown to 203 volunteer patients from a tertiary university hospital's facial plastic clinic.  The most aesthetically preferred nasofrontal angles were 137.

 The Neoclassical canons, originally framed based on the Renaissance artworks, vary across genders, races, and ages. This has been proved in multiple studies conducted on the Western population, but minimal studies exist on the Eastern population and lesser so on the Indian population. This study aims to define the standard Keralite face and assess its variation from the canons.
