Fully Automatic 3d Facial Cosmetic Surgery Simulation, Adawat Chanchua
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Before cosmetic surgery procedures, the patients are commonly involved in the consultation process using interviews and reference images. The reference images typically consist of pre-post surgery images of other patients, leading to misunderstandings between patients and the surgeon. This thesis presents a fully automatic pipeline to simulate the whole face of post-surgery results. We first establish a 3D face registration and alignment based on the face surgery procedures of the current day and then generate the delta image. We proposed the delta image to solve the lack of dataset dilemma of the pre-post surgery face images. We also propose a …
