Leonardo Da Vinci was one of the most thoughtful and pioneering anatomists on the study of facial and nasal harmony: his precepts remain almost unchanged until today. The concepts of facial harmony help us to easily identify the characteristics and dimensions of an aesthetic and harmonious nose acceptable to a particular face.

It consists on adjusting the osteo-cartilaginous skeleton of the nose in order to improve aesthetics and nasal respiratory function.
