“…For General Questions, positive perception of the individual in relation to QoL and general health is probably associated with improvement in the Physical, Psychological and Environment domains, which influenced the QoL of the individual in a positive way. These results corroborate studies which analyzed subjects without cleft lip and palate, which, despite using other instruments, found improvement in QoL (8)(9) , as well as studies using, among others, the OHIP-14 (6,(19)(20) . Thus, the positive changes observed in these domains and in the General Questions of WHOQOL-Bref can be related to the period of data collection after surgery, a mean of six months, considering the adaptation to the new facial appearance and return to social and professional activities, it would justify the improvement of QoL.…”

“…These results indicate that the perception of the individual had an improvement in QoL in these aspects, which can be attributed to physical changes with the change in facial appearance caused by surgery (8) . For General Questions, positive perception of the individual in relation to QoL and general health is probably associated with improvement in the Physical, Psychological and Environment domains, which influenced the QoL of the individual in a positive way.…”

“…Other studies have also investigated the QoL from the sixth month postoperatively (8,19) , and for some authors, the deterioration of QoL caused by the pain and the functional limitations is manifested mainly in the first six weeks after surgery, and may impact QoL negatively (9,19) . Immediately after surgery, a study showed transient impairment in QoL, justified by the authors by common surgical morbidities, such as pain, swelling, temporary limitation in mouth opening and reduced masticatory efficiency (6) .…”

“…Even in cases without cleft lip and palate, the presence of dentofacial deformity may interfere with aspects of quality of life (QoL) and thus, the benefits of correcting this deformity is favored accordingly (6)(7)(8)(9)(10) . The evaluation of these aspects can be used as an outcome measure of treatment and has been applied in different areas involved in health rehabilitation, which helps the teams improvement of services in the pursuit of patient well-being (11) as well as the planning of health care and clinical interventions (12) .…”

The "t" test for paired samples and Wilcoxon test were used for statistical analysis with a significance level of 5%. Results: After surgery, differences were found in the domains: Physical, Psychological, Environmental and General Questions of the WHOQOL-Bref and domains: Psychological Discomfort, Psychological Disability, Social Disability, Handicap and Overall Score of OHIP-14.

The aim of the present prospective and descriptive study was to assess the impact of facial aesthetic and reconstructive surgeries on quality of life. Ninety-one patients, of whom 43 had aesthetic surgery and 48 had reconstructive surgery, were analysed. The data were collected using the patient information form, body cathexis scale, and short form (SF)-36 quality of life scale. There were significant differences between before and after the surgery in both groups in terms of body cathexis scale and quality of life (p<0.05 for both). It was observed that problems regarding the body image perception were encountered more, and the quality of life was poorer in both aesthetic and reconstructive surgery patients before the surgery. However, the problems were decreased, and the quality of life was enhanced after the surgery. Among the parameters of SF-36 quality of life scale, particularly the mean scores of social functioning, physical role functioning, emotional role functioning, mental health, and vitality/fatigue were found low before the surgery, whereas the mean scores were significantly improved after the surgery. The results revealed that facial aesthetic and reconstructive surgical interventions favourably affected the body image perception and self-esteem and that positive reflections in emotional, social, and mental aspects were effective in enhancing selfconfidence and quality of life of the individual.
