Exploring Facial Asymmetry Metrics Correlated with Pre-operative SCHNOS Scores Using AI

These findings suggest vertical midfacial asymmetry may impact nasal function, whereas facial asymmetry has minimal influence on patients' perception of nasal aesthetics. The study also underscores the potential of AI-based facial analysis as a valuable tool in rhinoplasty evaluation.
