TY - JOUR TI - Evaluation of Nursing Students' Perspective on Aesthetic Surgery AB - Aim: This study evaluated nursing students' personal, social, and intellectual perspectives on aesthetic (cosmetic) surgery. Material and Methods: This descriptive study was conducted with 1st and 4th-year students studying at the nursing of a state university. A total of 435 students who met the research criteria were included in the study. The data of the study were collected using the Student Introductory Information Form and the Acceptance of Cosmetic Surgery Scale (ACCS). Descriptive statistical analyses were used in the study, and ethical committee and institutional permissions were obtained. Results: The average age of the students participating in the study was 21.66±3.46. The ACCS personal sub-dimension mean score (23.48±7.01) was found to be higher than the social (12.52±7.55) and intellectual (17.56±8.53) sub-dimension mean scores. In addition, it was determined that the attitude towards plastic surgery was more positive (median=54.00) among 4th-year students. Conclusion: This study determined that students accepted aesthetic surgery at a moderate level, male students had higher social motivation related to aesthetic surgery, students were affected by the media news in accepting aesthetic surgery, and those 4th-year students had a more positive attitude towards aesthetic surgery. In summary, it can be said that the fact that the students in our sample are both young and health workers affect their attitudes towards plastic surgery positively.
