AI Nose Type Detection for Aesthetic Clinics

The nose sits at the center of the face, so even small adjustments can change overall harmony.

Patients usually describe what they “don’t like,” but doctors need a standardized way to describe what they see. That’s where AI-based nose-type detection helps — it turns a subjective feature into objective data.

With Perfect Corp’s Face Analyzer, clinics can analyze facial areas — including nose proportions — in seconds, and use that to explain suitable rhinoplasty or non-surgical treatment plans to patients.

Common Nose Types AI Can Identify

While naming conventions differ by clinic or region, most noses can be grouped into categories like:

• Straight / Greek nose: straight bridge, balanced tip.
• Button nose: small, rounded tip.
• Roman / aquiline nose: more prominent bridge.
• Snub / turned-up nose: shorter bridge, slightly lifted tip.
• Hawk / convex nose: stronger curvature along the bridge.
• Wide base / flared nose: wider alar base compared to facial width.

AI doesn’t guess — it measures angles, width, and projection and then classifies.

How AI Nose Analysis Works

When a patient photo is uploaded, the AI model identifies key facial landmarks around the nasal area — bridge, tip, nostril width, and alar base. It then calculates:

• Nose length vs. total face length
• Nose width vs. intercanthal (eye-to-eye) distance
• Tip projection and rotation
• Symmetry between left and right nasal sides

This creates a repeatable baseline for doctors and consultants to discuss options with patients.

From Detection to Treatment Recommendation

The biggest benefit for medical aesthetics is that AI can connect “what kind of nose this is” to “what kind of treatment is suitable.” For example:

• Low bridge: suggest filler‐based augmentation or surgical rhinoplasty.
• Wide nostrils / alar base: suggest alar base reduction or slimming techniques.
• Drooping tip: suggest tip-lift procedures or thread‐based lifting.
• Mild asymmetry: suggest non‐surgical balancing.

Because it uses the same facial-analysis logic as other Perfect Corp endpoints, clinics can run skin, facial ratio, and nose analysis in one flow.

Why Clinics Should Add AI to Their Workflow

AI doesn’t replace surgeons — it makes consultations clearer. Patients can see what the system sees, which increases trust and conversion. Clinics also gain:

• Standardization: every consultant uses the same measurement logic.
• Speed: analysis in seconds, not minutes.
• Remote assessments: pre-visit upload from a website or app.
• Better visuals: pair with AR to show expected contour changes.

FAQ

Can AI really detect my nose type?

Yes. When trained on enough facial images, AI can recognize nose shapes based on bridge height, width, tip, and symmetry.

Is this for doctors or for patients?

Both. Clinics can use it during consultation; brands or platforms can let users self‐check nose features before a visit.

Can this be used for rhinoplasty planning?

It can support the planning stage by providing measurement baselines. For final surgical planning, doctors still decide, but AI makes the conversation clearer.

Will the system store patient photos?

No, you can configure Perfect Corp solutions to process‐only, making it safer for medical and beauty environments.
