    Area of Science:

    • Medical imaging
    • Plastic surgery
    • Machine learning applications

    Background:

    • Standardized facial photography is essential for consistent documentation in plastic surgery and medical aesthetics.
    • Existing methods struggle with patient variability, equipment, and environmental factors, leading to inconsistencies.
    • This study introduces a cost-effective photographic method enhanced by machine learning for improved reproducibility and precision.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate a standardized photographic system minimizing angular deviations (yaw, pitch, roll).
    • To test the hypothesis that the method achieves high reproducibility and consistency across different photographers and time points.

    Main Methods:

    • Photographed participants (n=20) in 5 standard positions using a specialized setup with a rotational chair and fixed lighting.
    • Utilized a pretrained machine learning model to quantify head angles from images.
    • Performed statistical analyses including Shapiro-Wilk and Hotelling's T-squared tests for normality and reproducibility.

    Main Results:

    • Mean yaw angle differences were within ±2° across all positions.
    • Pitch and roll values remained near zero, indicating minimal deviation.
    • Hotelling's T-squared test showed no significant differences between photo sessions (P=.7626), confirming high reproducibility.

    Conclusions:

    • A simple, reliable photographic method for consistent facial imaging in clinical practice was developed.
    • Machine learning integration enhances accuracy and validates the standardization approach.
    • The method is suitable for resource-limited settings, meeting high medical imaging standards.
