Abstract

The objective of this study is to disassemble, through scientific articles, the aspects related to aesthetic plastic surgery and the body satisfaction resulting from these procedures by the individuals who undergo them. A deep search of articles was carried out in the databases Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) and PubMed, with the following Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS): Body; Body image; Surgical procedures. Articles were selected between the periods of 1998 to 2023, in French, Spanish, English and Portuguese, to increase the level of relevance and quality of the review, given the scarcity of scientific studies on the subject. This review study made it possible to expose the current moment of aesthetic plastic surgeries, in addition to understanding the profile of the individuals who undergo it. Body dissatisfaction becomes an image disorder, correlated with feelings and emotions, are reasons that lead to the search for “correction” through aesthetic procedures. However, plastic surgery can alleviate dissatisfaction and is a tool against different body contexts.
