ABSTRACT: Background
Nasal tip projection ideals have been based on the Caucasian nose; however, many racial groups have underprojected tips. Several methodologies have been described to measure ideal nasal tip projection. This study aimed to compare various methods to racially diverse groups to elucidate those best suited for race-specific facial morphology.Methods
An openly accessible artificial intelligence image generator was used to generate images of Caucasian, Middle Eastern, and African American noses. Tip projection was manually measured using 5 different ideal tip projection methods. One-way analysis of variance with post hoc Tukey honest significant difference test evaluated differences between racial cohorts. One-sample t tests were used for comparisons to previous
