The Fibonacci sequence of numbers is known since the ancient past. It is considered as a proportion which can be frequently appreciated in nature. The associated ratio, called as the golden ratio is manifested in the works of art, nature, galaxies, monuments etc. Many famous mathematicians, philosophers, and artists have used this ratio in their work. Humans distinguish this proportion as pleasing, as it enlightens beauty when applied in living or non living entities. The ideal proportion is directly related to golden proportion. It ranges from 1 to 1.618. Moreover, the proportion can be applied in facial aesthetics also. Studies have showed that the beautiful faces have facial measurements close to golden ratio. Thus, the treatment following the standard will help in obtaining optimal facial aesthetics. The review is written with an aim to highlight the historical perspectives, its varied applications in the past and present; and further scope of research in future.
