    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Anatomy
    • Biometrics

    Background:

    • Literature review reveals limited data on normal lip dimensions and function.
    • Subjective assessment hinders objective evaluation of surgical lip repair outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To establish a range of normal values for key lip dimensions and functions.
    • To provide objective criteria for assessing lip defects and surgical results.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized simple, reproducible measurement techniques for lip anatomy and function.
    • Collected and statistically analyzed data to define normal lip parameters.

    Main Results:

    • Presented a range of normal values for surgically relevant lip aspects.
  • Quantified key lip dimensions and functional parameters.

    • Conclusions:

    • Objective data on lip dimensions and function are essential for evaluating surgical interventions.
    • This study provides a baseline for comparing abnormal and postoperative lip states.
