ABSTRACT:
Disclosed methods and systems related to enabling an analysis using a three-dimensional facial image. One of the methods involves facilitating construction of a three-dimensional facial image using at least captured image of a subject's face. The method also involves facilitating a simulation of use of an aesthetic feature on the three-dimensional facial image and/or processing of the three-dimensional facial image to enable a beauty analysis.
