Breast augmentation procedures are one of the most commonly performed aesthetic procedures in the United States. Little work has focused on the general public's overall perception of the ideal breast or has validated them with patient photographs.
To validate crowdsourced perceptions of breasts with their alignment to the aesthetics of breast augmentation patients.
A prospective cross-sectional study was performed using participants enrolled through the AmazonMechanical Turk crowdsourcing platform (Amazon Web Services, Amazon, Seattle, WA) to obtain participant opinions ofhow closely patient breasts aligned with previously obtained results of 4 ideal breast characteristics. Outcomes were reported based on the correlation between breast attractiveness and alignment to ideal breast characteristics, both before and after breast implant procedures.
2306 responses from 737 participants reported patient photograph alignment with ideal breast projection proportion (1.0) as having the highest correlation to opinions of heightened aesthetic beauty ( = 0.98, < 0.001), and ideal nipple direction (front) as having the lowest correlation to aesthetic beauty ( = 0.90, < 0.001). Younger age groups (18-24) and participants with a high school diploma or less rated patients as less attractive, while married and wealthy individuals reported higher attraction levels.
Crowdsourcing can be a useful tool for aesthetic surgery preferences and has helped reveal key takeaways. The importance of the 4 breast characteristics has been validated, with alignment to all 4 characteristics tested having a high correlation to preferences. Differences in preference across demographic groups are a topic to further investigate.
隆胸手术是美国最常进行的美容手术之一。很少有研究关注公众对理想乳房的总体认知，也没有用患者照片对这些认知进行验证。
验证通过众包得出的对乳房的认知与隆胸患者美学标准的一致性。
进行了一项前瞻性横断面研究，通过亚马逊土耳其机器人众包平台（亚马逊网络服务公司，华盛顿州西雅图市亚马逊公司）招募参与者，以获取他们对患者乳房与先前得出的4种理想乳房特征结果的匹配程度的看法。根据乳房植入手术前后乳房吸引力与理想乳房特征匹配度之间的相关性报告结果。
737名参与者的2306份回复报告称，患者照片与理想乳房突出比例（1.0）的匹配度与更高美学美感的看法相关性最高（=0.98，<0.001），而理想乳头方向（朝前）与美学美感的相关性最低（=0.90，<0.001）。年龄较小的群体（18 - 24岁）以及高中文凭及以下的参与者对患者的吸引力评价较低，而已婚和富有的人报告的吸引力水平较高。
众包可以成为了解美容手术偏好的有用工具，并有助于揭示关键要点。4种乳房特征的重要性已得到验证，与所有4种测试特征的匹配度与偏好具有高度相关性。不同人口群体之间的偏好差异是一个有待进一步研究的课题。
