[PMID: 39200785 PMCID: PMC11355392 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13164642] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2024] [Revised: 07/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/30/2024] [Indexed: 09/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background/Objectives: This study aims to systematize the ability to use ROE to assess rhinoplasty outcomes in surgical approaches. Methods: The PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were searched for the following terms: "rhinoplasty and outcome" OR "prognosis" OR "outcomes" OR "satisfaction" OR "quality of life" OR QoL "rhinoplasty outcome evaluation". The timeframe of the included studies is from 2011 to May 2024. Ultimately, 17 papers were included in the conducted meta-analysis of ROE scores between pre- and post-treatment data. Results The mean value of the pre-treatment ROE score was 33.50 with a CI of 29.46 to 37.53 (p < 0.001), while the post-treatment ROE was 69.60 with a CI of 63.07 to 76.14 (t ≤ 6 months). At t = 12 months it was 80.25 with a CI of 75.79 to 84.70 (p < 0.001). The mean difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment scores (t ≤ 6 months) was -36.31 with a CI of -40.93 to -31.69. The mean difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment scores for 6 m < t ≤ 12 m was -47.36 with a CI of -53.89 to -40.83. Conclusions: The result was statistically significant (p < 0.001).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with symptoms of body dysmorphia often seek consultation for aesthetic rhinoplasty. While body dysmorphic disorder is a formal psychiatric diagnosis, recent evidence indicates that patients with symptoms of this condition who seek rhinoplasty may experience increased satisfaction with their appearance following surgery. OBJECTIVES To determine the psychological impact of rhinoplasty in patients screened preoperatively and postoperatively with a body dysmorphia screening questionnaire. METHODS Retrospective chart review was performed of patients who underwent aesthetic and/or functional rhinoplasty by a single surgeon from June 2021 to April 2023. Adult patients with a complete preoperative and postoperative Body Dysmorphic Disorder-Aesthetic Surgery questionnaire (BDDQ-AS), Standardized Cosmesis and Health Nasal Outcomes Survey-Obstruction and Cosmesis (SCHNOS), and visual analog scale (VAS) were included. Patient characteristics and outcomes were analyzed, stratifying by BDDQ-AS screen. RESULTS One-hundred fifteen patients (88% female) met criteria for inclusion. There was an 83% resolution rate of BDDQ-AS positive screening following rhinoplasty. Positive BDDQ-AS screening status preoperatively and postoperatively correlated with worse aesthetic satisfaction (all P < .002). No patient-reported outcome measures were indicative of which patients with a BDDQ-AS positive screen preoperatively would experience "resolution" postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS Body dysmorphia screening resolution following surgical intervention correlated with improved patient aesthetic satisfaction, pointing to a potential positive psychological impact of undergoing rhinoplasty.

Abstract
(1) Background: Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) presents significant challenges in aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, impacting patient outcomes and well-being. Understanding its prevalence and associated factors is crucial for effective patient care. (2) Methods: A systematic review of national and international databases on body dysmorphic disorder, plastic surgery, cosmetic surgery, reconstructive surgery, and prevalence yielded 999 studies between 1878 and April 2024. Inclusion criteria focused on studies reporting prevalence while excluding those with small sample sizes (<20 participants), unclear diagnostic criteria for BDD, and non-English accessibility. (3) Results: A meta-analysis using a random effects model was conducted on 65 studies involving 17,107 patients to estimate the prevalence of BDD. The overall estimated prevalence of BDD was 18.6%; 10,776 (62.9%) were females, with a mean age of 35.5 ± 11.7 years. Subgroup meta-analysis found significant variability in effect sizes across countries and types of specialty, of which Brazil showed the highest proportion and dermatology exhibited the smallest. Meta-regression analysis found no significant relationship between the year of publication and prevalence rates. (4) Conclusions: Our findings update the current literature on BDD prevalence in aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery. We emphasize the importance of proactive screening and multidisciplinary care approaches to address the complex challenges posed by patients with BDD. Further research is needed to explore evolving trends in BDD prevalence and factors influencing its expression across different cultural contexts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) represents a bridge between the fields of psychiatry and cosmetic surgery. It is a psychiatric disorder involving altered body image and has been associated with cosmetic surgery. Many studies have investigated BDD following rhinoplasty. However, their findings were inconsistent, which prompted us to conduct this systematic review to obtain strong evidence about the prevalence of BDD among rhinoplasty candidates. METHODS We searched the literature using electronic databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and others using keywords relevant to the study outcomes. We also manually examined the references of the included studies and relevant reviews to look for articles that might have been missed during the electronic search. RESULTS Nine articles met the inclusion criteria. We identified 7 other relevant articles; since they had been included in a review conducted in 2016, they were not included in the final list of articles. However, they were included in the discussion, and their findings have been compared with ours. The included articles resulted in a total sample of 712 rhinoplasty candidates. The estimated prevalence rates of BDD in these articles ranged from 22% to 52%, which was considered high by all the authors of the included studies. CONCLUSION The prevalence of BDD among rhinoplasty candidates is high, and adequate management and interventions are needed to reduce it.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Septorhinoplasty (SRPL) can improve quality of life (QoL) in functional and aesthetical aspects of the nose. A key factor compromising postoperative satisfaction is symptoms of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), defined by excessive concerns and distress over slight or imagined physical defects. Although a high prevalence of BDD in SRPL patients is evident, the effect of positive screening on BDD and other psychiatric disorders is understudied. It was hypothesized that patients screening positive for BDD, depression or anxiety do not show increased postoperative QoL. METHODS A multicenter, prospective study including 259 patients. For psychiatric evaluation, the BDD concern questionnaire-aesthetic version and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale were used; for disease-specific QoL the Rhinoplasty Outcomes Evaluation (ROE) and the Functional Rhinoplasty Outcome Inventory (FROI-17). RESULTS In preoperative evaluation, 32.5% had a positive screening for BDD, 42.2% for increased anxiety, and 32.9% for depression. Mean QoL improved in the whole cohort (FROI total score: 54.4 ± 21.8 to 32.8 ± 23.7 and ROE: 32.3 ± 15.6 to 69.8 ± 23.1, both p < 0.001). Patients screening positive for BDD, depression or anxiety did show an increased postoperative QoL, but to a significantly lower degree and with lower pre- and postoperative QoL levels. CONCLUSIONS SRPL patients show a high prevalence of BDD symptoms, elevated anxiety, and depression. These subgroups show lower QoL levels and an impaired QoL increase after surgery. Rhinoplasty surgeons must be aware of the disorders and their symptoms, discuss potential concerns with the patients, and potentially refer them to a specialist.

Comparison of Aesthetic and Functional Rhinoplasty Outcomes Between Patients with Body Dysmorphic Disorder and Normal Individuals. Aesthetic Plast Surg 2024:10.1007/s00266-024-03961-y. [PMID: 38575764 DOI: 10.1007/s00266-024-03961-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rhinoplasty is among the top five most popular cosmetic surgical procedures worldwide. Among rhinoplasty candidates, the most common mental health disorder is body dysmorphic disorder. (BDD). The present study aimed to assess the prevalence of BDD among rhinoplasty candidates, its association with the patient's self-assessment of aesthetic outcome and nasal functional, post-rhinoplasty compared to applicants with negative screening for BDD. METHODS The following study is a cross-sectional, comparative study. Out of the 209 rhinoplasty candidates screened by the BDDQ questionnaire, 39 were positive for BDD. From the remaining 170 patients who screened negative for BDD, 39 participants were randomly selected as the control group for the comparative analysis. Rhinoplasty outcome evaluation (ROE) and standardized cosmesis and health nasal outcomes survey-cosmetic (SCHNOS-C) questionnaires were used for assessment of patient satisfaction with the cosmetic outcome of rhinoplasty. Nasal obstruction symptom evaluation (NOSE) and standardized cosmesis and health nasal outcomes survey-obstruction (SCHNOS-O) were used for the assessment of satisfaction with functional outcomes between groups of patients screened positive and negative for BDD. RESULTS The prevalence of BDD was 18.66% among rhinoplasty candidates. The average age of patients screened positive for BDD was 31.41. The mean ROE score was significantly lower (i.e. lower satisfaction) in patients screened positive for BDD (15.69 versus 19.08, P = 0.001), regardless of confounding variables, such as age, sex, and marital status. SCHNOS-C score was higher (i.e. less satisfaction) among patients with BDD (47.01 versus 34.96, P = 0.021) and was significantly associated with higher odds of severe aesthetic concern post-rhinoplasty (OR (95%CI) = 5.000 (1.135-22.022), P = 0.033). Patients screened positive for BDD had significantly higher NOSE scores (i.e. less satisfaction with functional outcome) compared to participants negative for BDD (49.74 versus 37.82, P = 0.012). SCHNOS-O score had no significant association with BDD (P = 0.053). Furthermore, there was no significant association between BDD and NOSE or SCHNOS-O score after adjustment for the confounders. CONCLUSION Patients screened positive for BDD were significantly less satisfied with the cosmetic outcome of the rhinoplasty compared to those screened negative for BDD. Assessment of BDD among rhinoplasty candidates before surgery, could potentially be beneficial for both patients and surgeons.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients requiring plastic surgery exhibit more abnormal psychological trends (e.g., body dysmorphic disorder [BDD], depression, and anxiety) than those requiring other surgeries. However, there are only a few domestic studies on the psychological aspects of the population requiring plastic surgery. Therefore, we analyzed the psychological characteristics and psychological impact of rhinoplasty in female patients. METHODS In this study, patients were classified into 2 groups: 151 males and 60 females. The self-rating scale of body image (SSBI), self-rating anxiety scale, self-rating depression scale, and postoperative satisfaction questionnaire were used to examine the patients before and after surgery. The results were analyzed using t-test, analysis of variance, chi-square test, paired rank sum test, and Pearson correlation analysis. RESULTS The total prevalence of BDD in female patients who underwent rhinoplasty was 7.3%. The prevalence of anxiety disorders was 31.8% and that of depression was 45.0%. Female patients with BDD were more likely to exhibit depression (55.5%) and anxiety (36.4%). The SSBI score was related to marital status (p = 0.001) and history of rhinoplasty (p = 0.000). Moreover, there was a significant negative correlation between preoperative BDD score and postoperative satisfaction (r = -0.392, p = 0.002) as well as between the previous history of rhinoplasty and postoperative satisfaction (r = -0.603, p = 0.000). CONCLUSION Pathological psychologies such as anxiety, depression, and BDD are common in patients scheduled to undergo rhinoplasty, and BDD is more likely to be associated with depression. Rhinoplasty has little psychological impact on patients, i.e., it neither causes improvement nor deterioration. Female patients who have undergone rhinoplasty should be considered to a have high risk of BDD. Although the outcomes of surgery are generally quite positive, patients diagnosed with BDD are more likely to be dissatisfied.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) represents a prevalent mental health condition characterized by distress arising from self-perceived physical imperfections. BDD serves as a contraindication to aesthetic surgery. Recognizing BDD holds paramount importance for plastic surgeons, as it is instrumental in averting the exacerbation of this condition while ensuring appropriate referrals. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of BDD in cosmetic surgery patients and to pinpoint key characteristics associated with BDD. This information provides plastic surgeons with specific factors to consider during preoperative evaluations. METHODS We employed TriNetX database to identify patients with BDD who underwent cosmetic surgery identified by Current Procedural Terminology codes. Demographics and patient characteristics were identified using the International Classification of Diseases 10 codes. We calculated odds ratios (OR) by using chi-squared tests to assess risk factors among patients with BDD. RESULTS Of 226,374 patients who underwent plastic surgery between August 2002 and August 2022, fewer than 0.1% were diagnosed with BDD. Of the BDD patients, 52.1% were diagnosed after cosmetic surgery. Compared with the control group, BDD patients were more likely to undergo rhinoplasty (OR=1.784, p = 0.004) and nonlocalized lipectomy (OR=1.448, p = 0.021) and less likely to undergo blepharoplasty (OR=0.451, p = 0.002). Findings indicated a strong association between BDD patients undergoing cosmetic procedures and comorbid psychiatric conditions such as depression (OR=4.279, p < 0.05), anxiety (OR=5.490, p < 0.05), and Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (OR=3.993, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS These findings underscore the ongoing significance of BDD in the context of cosmetic surgery, potentially indicating a lower surgery rate among BDD patients compared with previous estimates. Nevertheless, avenues for further improvement persist. Our data affirm the noteworthy occurrence of postsurgery BDD development, thereby highlighting the ongoing necessity for psychiatric evaluation in surgical patients.

Abstract
Background: Many patients with body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) seek out cosmetic surgery to alleviate their symptoms of distress related to a perceived defect in their appearance; however, the prevalence and risk factors for BDD among patients with cosmetic concerns have not been well characterized. Methods: We screened adult patients presenting to the clinic from June 2021 through September 2022 for BDD using the BDD Questionnaire-Aesthetic Surgery (BDDQ-AS) who were seen in consultation for rhinoplasty, aging face, and injectables. Results: Among 488 patients, the prevalence of screening positive for BDD was 41.0%. The prevalence of a positive BDD screen was highest among patients who were younger (p = 0.02), and those who had a positive self-reported psychiatric history (p = 0.02). Among rhinoplasty patients, those with aesthetic/cosmetic motivations, and those seeking revision rhinoplasty had higher rates of positive BDD screen. Higher scores on the Standardized Cosmesis and Health Nasal Outcomes Survey-Nasal Obstruction Score (SCHNOS-O) (p = 0.01) and Standardized Cosmesis and Health Nasal Outcomes Survey-Nasal Obstruction Score-Nasal Cosmesis Score (SCHNOS-C) (p < 0.0001) were predictive of a positive BDD screen, while question 5 of the SCHNOS was highly predictive of positive BDD screening (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: Our study characterizes relationships between positive BDD screening and age, gender, self-reported psychiatric history, and motivations for consultation, among patients seen for cosmetic surgery evaluation in a facial plastic and reconstructive surgery setting.

Nabavizadeh SS, Naseri R, Sadeghi E, Afshari A, Dehdari Ebrahimi N, Sadeghi A. Prevalence of body dysmorphic disorder in rhinoplasty candidates: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Health Sci Rep 2023; 6:e1495. [PMID: 37599660 PMCID: PMC10435832 DOI: 10.1002/hsr2.1495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a prevalent mental disorder, particularly in those seeking plastic surgery, leading to unnecessary surgeries and postsurgical dissatisfaction. Among the plastic surgeries, rhinoplasty is the most commonly sought, yet the data on prevalence of BDD among the candidates of rhinoplasty is limited. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the prevalence of BDD in rhinoplasty candidates. Methods The online libraries of Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, ProQuest, Research Square, Scopus, and Google Scholar were searched up to August 2022. Statistical analyses were performed using STATA software (v. 16). The heterogeneity was determined using the I 2 statistic, and an overall estimated analysis was conducted. Subgroup analyses were performed on study year, age, gender, World Health Organization regional classification, sociodemographic index, country, sample size, and employed diagnostic tool. A meta-regression analysis was performed to identify potential sources of heterogeneity. Results Out of 12,999 studies assessed, 18, with a combined sample size of 2132 individuals, met our criteria and were included in the study. The pooled prevalence of BDD was 32.7% (95% CI: 23.6-41.7; I 2 = 96.45%). Subgroup analyses revealed the studies that were conducted in the European region (42.8%), with a sample size of ≥100 (40.2%), utilized the BDD modification of the Y-BOCS (BDD-YBOCS) diagnostic method (47.3%), and with a quality score of ≥6 (34.2%) demonstrated higher prevalence of BDD. The meta-regression analysis identified a higher prevalence in the BDD-YBOCS diagnostic method than in the BDD questionnaire (β: 0.23; 95% CI: 0.04-0.43; p = 0.022). Conclusions The prevalence of BDD is high in those seeking rhinoplasty. Clinicians should be aware of BDD symptoms to prevent unnecessary surgery and dissatisfaction. Public awareness through the media and access to affordable medical services should also be provided.

Pereira IN, Chattopadhyay R, Fitzpatrick S, Nguyen S, Hassan H. Evidence-based review: Screening body dysmorphic disorder in aesthetic clinical settings. J Cosmet Dermatol 2023. [PMID: 36847707 DOI: 10.1111/jocd.15685] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2022] [Revised: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a psychiatric disturbance with high incidence in aesthetic clinical settings. Early recognition may avoid unnecessary elective procedures with ethical and medicolegal consequences. AIMS To identify validated BDD screening tools and critically appraise current literature regarding its implementation and efficacy in aesthetic medicine and surgery scenarios, with the purpose of transposing the findings to the broad clinical settings in the field. METHODS Data was collected using advanced search from PubMed (MEDLINE). Having satisfied the search parameters, 12 studies referring BDD definition according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorder (DSM-5) criteria and including a BDD screening tool in clinical aesthetic settings were selected. RESULTS While BDD screening enables the recognition of at-risk individuals, further work is required to uncover the best screening tool for general aesthetic clinical practice. Level III evidence favored BDD Questionnaire (BDDQ)/BDDQ-Dermatology Version (DV), and The Dysmorphic Concern Questionnaire (DCQ) among the limited available validated screening instruments to be used outside the psychiatric environment. Based on level II self-classification, one study selected BDDQ-Aesthetic Surgery (AS) version for rhinoplasty patients. The validation process of both BDDQ-AS and Cosmetic Procedure Screening Questionnaire (COPS) had limitations. For BDD screening potential in avoiding postoperative complications, the limited studies found evaluating the outcomes following aesthetic treatments using validated BDD screening measures showed a trend toward less satisfaction with aesthetic treatment outcome among positive screening population against non-BDD counterparts. CONCLUSION Further research is necessary to establish more effective methods to identify BDD and evaluate the impact of positive findings on aesthetic intervention outcomes. Future studies may elucidate which BDD characteristics best predict a favorable outcome and provide high-quality evidence for standardized protocols in research and clinical practice.

Prevalence of Body Somatic Deformities in Plastic Surgery Patients: A Systematic Review with Meta-analysis. Aesthetic Plast Surg 2023; 47:1217-1224. [PMID: 36596920 DOI: 10.1007/s00266-022-03237-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty that focuses on restoring, reconstructing, or changing the human body. Somatic deformities (SD) are defined by a distorted impression of one's own body image and are rather frequent. The majority of people with SD have some level of social and vocational impairment, with obsessive concerns about appearance leading to compulsive behaviors and, in more severe situations, suicidal thoughts. OBJECTIVE The current study aims to confirm the prevalence of SD in plastic surgery patients using a systematic review of the literature and a meta-analysis. METHODOLOGY We have searched for electronic databases with MeSH terms, and the studies for analysis were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and quality assessment. The study was conducted as per the PRISMA guidelines. The pooled prevalence was calculated using fixed and random effect model. The publication bias was assessed qualitatively (funnel plot) as well as quantitatively (Begg, Egger and Harbord tests). All analysis was done using Stats Direct (version 3). RESULTS The pooled prevalence of somatic deformities in plastic surgery with 95% confidence interval using random effect model was found to be 0.19 [0.12, 0.27] which indicates a significant association of somatic deformities in plastic surgery. The heterogeneity among studies was found to be high as indicated by Cochran Q (P < 0.0001) and I2 tests (98.6%). The qualitative and quantitative analysis has also shown significant involvement of publication bias. CONCLUSION Based on available evidence, there is a significant association of somatic deformities in plastic surgery.

Abstract
Vision seems to be the first to recognize a potential threat, subconsciously recording and processing the image. Visual discrimination happens at a subcortical level after an environmental image is recorded in midbrain tissues. Aesthetics and beauty have been found to be decoded subconsciously in the amygdala, similar to a frightening threat. Therefore, blind patients can detect beauty by embodied primal senses other than vision. It could be processed without conscious thought, in the same way, that an immediate threat is. Here, we present a case of a 55-year-old male who has had bilateral blindness for 15 years and came to a rhinoplasty clinic seeking help for nasal obstruction and difficulty breathing due to an old history of trauma since adolescence, causing nasal deviation. He asked for both aesthetic and functional corrections. Rhinoseptoplasty was done successfully, significantly impacting the quality of life and psychosocial distress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) and other psychological problems are more common in cosmetic surgery applicants. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of the symptoms of BDD and narcissistic personality disorder in rhinoplasty candidates. MATERIALS AND METHODS This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on rhinoplasty applicants. All subjects were evaluated by BDD and narcissistic personality questionnaires (NPI-16). RESULTS A total of 380 patients were studied. Our findings showed that the prevalence of mild, moderate, and severe BDD symptoms was 31.6%, 43.4% and 25%, respectively. The mean BDD scores were not significantly different in variables such as gender, age, marital status, history of cosmetic surgery, education, place of residence, and income. 29.5% of the subjects had symptoms of narcissism. There was no significant relationship between the symptoms of narcissism and variables such as gender, age, marital status, history of cosmetic surgery, place of residence, and income. Higher education was associated with higher rates of narcissistic personality disorder (p-value = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS According to the results of the study, there was no statistically significant relationship between BDD score and demographic parameters. Also, association between narcissistic personality disorder and demographic characteristics was not significant except for education.
