Area of Science:

Plastic Surgery
Patient-Reported Outcomes
Surgical Decision-Making

Background:

Patient decision regret can follow elective surgery, impacting psychological and economic well-being.
Decision regret is a key patient-reported outcome for measuring surgical results.
Understanding decision regret is crucial for improving patient care and satisfaction.

Purpose of the Study:

To identify key factors influencing patient decision regret after plastic surgery.
To enhance preoperative counseling and shared decision-making in elective procedures.
To explore the role of patient-reported outcomes in plastic surgery.

Main Methods:

Literature search on PubMed using terms like 'aesthetic surgery' and 'decision regret'.
Included randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, and systematic reviews.
Focused on specific procedures such as rhinoplasty, face-lift, abdominoplasty, and breast surgeries.

Main Results:

Preoperative education significantly impacts decision regret.
Decisional tools are important in mitigating patient regret.
Postoperative complications are a major factor in decision regret.

Conclusions:

Improved understanding of decision regret factors aids preoperative counseling.
Shared decision-making tools can increase patient satisfaction.
Further research is needed for cosmetic procedures beyond breast reconstruction.
