چکیده

Background & Aims: The present study aimed to examine the effect of cosmetic surgery on self-esteem and body image of those who have undergone rhinoplasty. Methods: In a quasi-experimental design, and using convenience sampling, ۴۵ participants were selected from the waiting lists of rhinoplasty cosmetic surgery, general operation, and from those who were not waiting for any type of operation.
