The objective of this study was to analyze and compare the main predictive factors that drive patient satisfaction in the most popular plastic surgery procedures. According to this, buccal fat removal and tummy tuck tuck have received the highest satisfaction ratings, with 98.8% and 98.1%, respectively. The high cost, improvements in the algorithms of competing review sites, loss of ownership of expertise, and growing alternative opportunities to generate online content may lead plastic surgeons to abandon this platform for others. The plastic surgeon can establish a strong and compassionate relationship between the patient and the surgeon from the start by explaining the impact of the procedure on appearance, body image and quality of life and setting reasonable expectations.
For people contemplating plastic surgery, it's crucial to conduct thorough research and consider several factors. No study has yet investigated the differences in satisfaction between reconstructive and aesthetic surgical procedures. Philadelphia, New York City and Los Angeles had the highest average satisfaction ratings of 4.84, 4.83 and 4.81 stars, respectively. Other factors, such as the surgeon's qualifications and experience, realistic expectations and a comprehensive consultation, play an important role in achieving satisfactory results.
Unlike other medical treatments with standardized success metrics, there is no universally accepted quality criterion for plastic surgery. By creating more comprehensive tools for determining accurate rates of quality of life and patient satisfaction, the field of plastic surgery will advance even further. Likewise, the unsatisfactory aesthetic result was the most cited factor in a review with a low score in all procedures, most frequently in patients undergoing rhytidectomy (100%) and buccal fat extraction (100%). This makes it difficult to provide an objective comparison of the success rates of different techniques.
and individual surgical skills. Plastic surgery is a highly individualized process, in which each patient has unique expectations and desired results.
