Abstract

Aesthetics and the perception of beauty have significantly impacted cultural and personal norms over time. Technological advances in aesthetic medicine have made altering physical appearance more accessible, popularizing procedures such as botulinum toxin and chemical peeling. The aim of this article was to determine patient satisfaction with their personal appearance after undergoing various aesthetic procedures, as well as specific improvements in different areas of the face and skin. The methodology used was a cross-sectional descriptive study involving 67 patients at the "ESTICCA" Aesthetic Medical Center, analyzing demographic and psychosocial aspects through surveys, with data processed in SPSS software for statistical analysis, including Chi-square tests. The results obtained showed that the majority of the patients in the study experienced an increase in satisfaction with their appearance after aesthetic procedures, with significant improvements in specific areas of the face. In conclusion, it was suggested that aesthetic interventions improve not only physical appearance but also psychological and emotional well-being, highlighting the need for a holistic approach in aesthetic medicine
