Abstract

Introduction

Psychological factors play a major role in the tendency toward cosmetic surgery. Variety seeking, making changes in one’s face and reducing apparent dissatisfaction, improving body image and increasing sexual self-esteem can be considered as some psychological aspects of cosmetic surgery. The present study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the changes in the indices of body image concern, sexual self-esteem and sexual body image in patients undergoing rhinoplasty.

Method

This study was a single-group pretest–posttest quasi-experimental design. The research data were collected from March 2015 to January 2016. For this purpose, of the patients seeking nose surgery who referred to beauty centers in Mashhad, 40 subjects were selected through purposive method sampling and completed a Body Image Concern Inventory, Sexual Self-Esteem Index for Women and Body Exposure during Sexual Activities Questionnaire before and after rhinoplasty. These data were collected after obtaining informed consent, conducting a structured clinical interview and completing the demographic checklist.

Findings

Data analysis demonstrated that there is a significant improvement in the index of female body image concern after rhinoplasty (p < 0.05). In the indices of sexual self-esteem and sexual body image, the analyses showed no significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores (p > 0.05).

Conclusion

Cosmetic surgery leads to the reduced body image concern of women but has no effect on sexual self-esteem and sexual body image. It seems that the psychological function of patients does not change significantly by rhinoplasty dimensions.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.
