“…Higher education levels of parents could lead to better awareness of the risks of these procedures, but this association was not explored in this study. In contrast to the present findings, previous research found that elevated paternal education level is linked with higher acceptance of cosmetic surgery [ 25 ]. It is possible that higher parental education levels are linked with higher financial status, but this is also an association that needs to be explored in the future.…”

Background and objective Cosmetic surgery is a field that primarily focuses on the preservation, rebuilding, or improvement of the physical appearance of an individual through surgical and therapeutic methods. This specialization encompasses various interventions, both surgical, such as blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, and breast augmentation, and non-surgical, including procedures such as chemical peeling, Botox injections, and dermal fillers. This study aims to assess the acceptance of cosmetic surgeries and non-surgical cosmetic procedures and the reasons for non-acceptance in a population from Jazan, Saudi Arabia. Methods This cross-sectional survey study was conducted in the general population of Jazan, Saudi Arabia, between July and August 2023. An online self-administered questionnaire was created using Google Forms and distributed through social media. The acceptance was measured using the Arabic translation of the Acceptance of Cosmetic Surgery Scale (ACSS). Results The mean cosmetic surgery acceptance score was 62.1 ± 25.9, whereas the mean non-surgical procedure acceptance score was 63.7 ± 24.5. Engaged and widowed participants had a higher mean acceptance score for cosmetic surgery, whereas divorced participants had a higher mean acceptance score for non-surgical cosmetic procedures. Higher age was associated with higher acceptance of cosmetic surgery (95% CI: 1-15), while having higher income was associated with lower acceptance (95% CI: -14 to -0.32). A higher level of parental education was associated with lower acceptance of surgical and non-surgical cosmetic procedures (95% CI: -23 to -3.5). The perceived lack of a need for cosmetic procedures was the most commonly cited reason for not accepting these procedures, while religious beliefs were the second most common reason. Conclusion Non-surgical cosmetic procedures generally had higher acceptance than cosmetic surgeries. Age, sex, marital status, income level, familial influence, and prior experience all played significant roles in shaping these attitudes. The perceived lack of a need for the procedures and religious beliefs were common reasons for not accepting cosmetic procedures.

Background A rapid increase has been observed in aesthetic surgery procedures in recent years and it has been determined that females have more aesthetic procedures. While different groups of female groups were taken as a sample in the studies, no study on female nurses was found. In this study, it is thought that psychological reasons such as stress, anxiety, desire to be liked and lack of self-confidence that lead women to plastic surgery will reduce the professional performance of nurses and this situation will create additional workload for other colleagues. Therefore, the aim of the study is to reveal the effect of desire to be liked and social appearance anxiety on the acceptance of female nurses to plastic surgery. Methods The population of the cross-sectional study consisted of 243.565 nurses working in public, private and university hospitals in Turkey. A questionnaire form was used as a data collection tool in the study. In the first part of the form, there are statements aiming to reveal the socio-demographic characteristics, social media usage levels and aesthetic surgery experiences of nurses, and in the second part, there is a desire to be liked scale, social appearance anxiety scale and aesthetic surgery acceptance scale. The 1004 questionnaire forms collected as a result of the study were subjected to percentage, frequency, correlation and regression analysis. Results 41.2% of the nurses have had aesthetic procedures before and 68.4% of them want to have aesthetic procedures when there is an area they do not like in their body. A strong positive relationship was found between the desire to be liked, social appearance anxiety, and aesthetic surgery acceptance (r > 0.500, p < 0.01). Aesthetic surgery acceptance is affected by the desire to be liked and by social appearance anxiety. Conclusion In the study, it was determined that social appearance anxiety and the desire to be liked led female nurses to plastic surgery. According to the results of similar studies conducted in different groups, it may be recommended that awareness training be organized both in schools and through digital media about the consequences of unnecessary plastic surgery.

Giriş: Estetik cerrahi girişim sayıları arttıkça, hastalara bakım verenlerin rolleri değişmekte ve artmakta; estetik cerrahiye karşı tutumları önem kazanmaktadır. Amaç: Bu araştırmanın amacı bir sağlık bilimleri fakültesi, hemşirelik, beslenme ve diyetetik ile fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon bölümleri öğretim elemanları ve öğrencilerinin estetik cerrahiye yönelik tutumlarının değerlendirilmesidir. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı türdeki bu araştırma, Şubat- Mart 2020 tarihleri arasında, bir sağlık bilimleri fakültesinde 38 öğretim elemanı ve 870 öğrenci ile yürütüldü. Veriler bir tanımlayıcı bilgi formu ve Kozmetik Cerrahiyi Kabul Ölçeği kullanılarak toplandı. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı analizler, Student t testi ve doğrusal (lineer) regresyon analizi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Öğretim elemanlarının Kozmetik Cerrahiyi Kabul Ölçeği toplam puan ortalaması 54.16 ± 18.99, öğrencilerin ise 54.19 ± 20.08 olarak belirlendi. Öğretim elemanlarının ölçek toplam puan ortalamalarının estetik cerrahi girişim geçirmeyi düşünme durumlarına göre farklılık gösterdiği belirlendi (p = .000). Daha önce estetik cerrahi girişim geçirmiş olma, sosyal çevrede estetik cerrahi girişim geçirmiş bir birey olması, estetik cerrahi girişim geçirmeyi düşünme, estetik cerrahinin sağlık açısından zararsız olduğunu düşünme ve dini görüşlerin estetik cerrahiye engel olmayacağını düşünmenin öğrencilerin estetik cerrahiye yönelik tutumları için önemli yordayıcı değişkenler olduğu belirlendi (p = .000). Sonuç: Öğretim elemanlarının ve öğrencilerin estetik cerrahiye yönelik tutumları orta düzeyde belirlendi. Estetik cerrahi girişim geçirmeyi düşünen öğretim elemanlarının tutum düzeyleri diğerlerine göre yüksekti. Öğrencilerin estetik cerrahiye yönelik tutumlarını yordayan faktörler daha önce estetik cerrahi girişim geçirmiş olma, sosyal çevrede estetik cerrahi girişim geçirmiş bir birey olması, estetik cerrahi girişim geçirmeyi düşünme, estetik cerrahinin sağlık açısından zararsız olduğunu düşünme ve dini görüşlerin estetik cerrahiye engel olmayacağını düşünme olarak belirlendi. Bu değişkenlerden oluşan model öğrencilerin estetik cerrahiye yönelik tutum düzeylerindeki değişimin %41.6’sını açıklamaktadır. Öğretim elemanlarının ve öğrencilerin estetik cerrahiye yönelik tutumlarının olumlu değişimi için girişimlerde bulunulmasını önermekteyiz.
