Background: It is difficult to predict functional and aesthetic results and provide patient satisfaction after rhinoplasty.Objective: To investigate the effect of nasal obstruction, body appreciation, and acceptance of cosmetic surgery (ACS) in predicting patient satisfaction postrhinoplasty.Methods: We prospectively included 97 consecutive participants who underwent rhinoplasty. We recorded age, gender, marital status, education, and body mass index (BMI), and nasal obstruction symptom evaluation (NOSE) scale, body appreciation scale-2 (BAS-2), acceptance of cosmetic surgery scale (ACSS), and rhinoplasty outcome evaluation (ROE) scale were determined preoperatively and at the 3-month postoperative follow-up.Results: The preoperative and postoperative NOSE, BAS-2, ACSS, and ROE scores differed significantly. The mean ROE score improved from 36.8 preoperatively to 82.1 postoperatively. The ROEpostop score was not correlated significantly with age, BMI, ACSSpreop, BAS-2postop, or ACCSpostop. The BAS-2preop scores were correlated significantly with ACCSpreop and ACSSpostop scores. The NOSEpreop and BAS-2preop scores were significant predictors of the ROEpostop scores in the regression analysis.Conclusion: Preoperative nasal obstruction and body appreciation, but not ACS, are factors that might affect patient satisfaction after rhinoplasty.
Relationship Between The Beliefs On Social Appearance, Anxiety, And Intolerance Of Uncertainty In Rhinoplasty Patients Psychological Factors Associated With Rhinoplasty Satisfaction
(2022) Yigman, Fatih; Inan, Serhat
Aim: Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed for functional and/or cosmetic purposes. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the psychological factors that determine patient satisfaction in rhinoplasty surgery. Material and Methods: A total of 121 patients (85 women, 36 men) participated in the study. Sociodemographic data form, social appearance anxiety scale (SAAS), beliefs about appearance scale (BAAS), short form of intolerance of uncertainty (IUS) scale and rhinoplasty outcomes evaluation questionnaire (ROEQ) were applied to the participants before and at the 3rd- month control after rhinoplasty. Results: Before and after the operation, patients were divided into two groups, according to their SAAS scores. Preoperative BAAS, preoperative SAAS and postoperative REOQ scores were significantly higher in the group of patients whose SAAS scores decreased after the operation. It was determined that the change in ROEQ scores could be predicted by the change in SAAS scores (beta=-0.454, p<0.005). Discussion: Psychological factors such as appearance anxiety can act as a bridge between patient satisfaction and rhinoplasty outcomes. This study indicates a complex cognitive process and suggests that multidisciplinary approaches may be important to improve patient satisfaction after rhinoplasty.
