Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Plastic Surgery
  • Personality Studies

Background:

  • Rhinoplasty is a common cosmetic procedure.
  • Understanding the psychological profile of patients seeking rhinoplasty is crucial for effective patient care and managing expectations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare personality characteristics, specifically perfectionism, ruminative thinking, and self-compassion, between individuals who have had rhinoplasty and a control group.
  • To identify potential psychological predispositions associated with undergoing rhinoplasty.

Main Methods:

  • A case-control study involving 33 adult rhinoplasty patients and 33 controls.
  • Psychological assessments included the Frost multidimensional perfectionism scale, ruminative thinking style questionnaire, and self-compassion scale.
  • Participants were adults undergoing primary rhinoplasty for functional and cosmetic reasons, with controls having no prior cosmetic surgery history.

Main Results:

  • Rhinoplasty patients demonstrated significantly higher scores for perfectionism (p=0.009) and ruminative thinking compared to the control group.
  • The rhinoplasty group exhibited lower self-compassion scores than the control group.
  • Positive correlation found between perfectionism and ruminative thinking (r=0.482; p=0.005) and a negative correlation between self-compassion and ruminative thinking (r=-0.465; p=0.006) in rhinoplasty patients.

Conclusions:

  • Individuals undergoing rhinoplasty tend to have elevated levels of perfectionism and a greater propensity for ruminative thinking.
  • Reduced self-compassion is also characteristic of the rhinoplasty group compared to non-surgical individuals.
  • Cosmetic surgeons should consider psychological assessments during consultations to enhance surgeon-patient relationships and communication.
