Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: This study assessed the acceptance of cosmetic surgery among the Saudi population and examined its relationship with body dysmorphic disorder and the participants\' demographic characteristics.
METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted between June 2023 and February 2024. A sample of 1368 participants were recruited from hospitals, clinics, and public places such as malls, parks, and universities and were asked to complete a self-administered, pre-validated, and open-access questionnaire about the presence of body dysmorphic disorder using the BDD scale and the acceptance of cosmetic surgery using the ACSS scale, analyzed using IBM Corp. Released 2015. IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 23.0. Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.
RESULTS: More than half of the participants were female, single, and had a higher educational level. Only 3.0% of the participants had previously undergone cosmetic surgery (CS). Rhinoplasty was the most common cosmetic surgery performed by both genders. More than half of the participants indicated that they had concerns about their appearance, which caused them distress, torment, or pain. However, only one-third of the participants demonstrated acceptance toward CS. There was a significant positive correlation between body dysmorphic disorders (BDD) and acceptance of the cosmetic surgery scale (ACSS). Moreover, higher significant acceptance for CS (p-value is <0.001) was observed in females, south region, 32- to 40-year-olds, postgraduate degrees of education, married persons, and those undergoing previous cosmetic surgery.
CONCLUSIONS: Concerns about appearance causing distress were prevalent among participants, yet acceptance of cosmetic surgery was moderate. Individuals with higher levels of BDD symptoms are more inclined to view cosmetic surgery as a viable solution to their perceived concerns about their appearance. Moreover, being female, from the southern region, aged 32 to 40 years, with postgraduate education, married individuals, and having prior cosmetic surgery experience are motives to accept CS. These findings underscore the complex interplay between psychological factors and demographic characteristics in shaping the acceptance of cosmetic surgery.

摘要：
目的：本研究评估了沙特人群对整容手术的接受程度，并检查了其与身体畸形障碍和参与者的人口统计学特征的关系。
方法：在2023年6月至2024年2月之间进行了一项横断面研究。从医院招募了1368名参与者的样本，诊所,以及商场等公共场所，公园,和大学，并被要求完成自我管理，预验证,使用BDD量表和使用ACSS量表对整容手术的接受程度进行关于身体畸形障碍的开放式问卷调查，使用IBM公司进行分析2015年发布IBMSPSSStatisticsforWindows,版本23.0。Armonk,纽约：IBM公司
结果：一半以上的参与者是女性，单身,有较高的教育水平。只有3.0%的参与者以前接受过整容手术(CS)。鼻成形术是男女最常见的整容手术。超过一半的参与者表示他们对自己的外表感到担忧，这给他们带来了痛苦，折磨，或疼痛。然而,只有三分之一的参与者表示接受CS。身体畸形障碍（BDD）与接受整容手术量表（ACSS）之间存在显着正相关。此外，女性对CS的接受度更高(p值<0.001)，南部地区,32-40岁的人，研究生学位教育，已婚人士,以及之前接受过整容手术的人。
结论：对外观引起的困扰的担忧在参与者中普遍存在，然而，接受整容手术是适度的。具有较高水平的BDD症状的个体更倾向于将整容手术视为对其外观的感知担忧的可行解决方案。此外，作为女性，来自南部地区，32至40岁，研究生教育,已婚个体,并且具有先前的整容手术经验是接受CS的动机。这些发现强调了心理因素与人口统计学特征之间复杂的相互作用，从而影响了整容手术的接受程度。
