Ideal proportions are directly related to the so-called divine proportions and the most important value in relation to these proportions is 1:1.618. The purpose of this study is to evaluate with the use of anthropometric measurements in Indian volunteers which will give guideline in aesthetic and reconstructive procedures and will also show the differences in Indian and Caucasian population.
