Psychological Disorders Are a Non-negligible Factor in Medical Aesthetic Disputes.
Review in Aesthetic plastic surgery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundPsychological disorders play a crucial yet often overlooked role in medical aesthetic disputes. Patients with underlying psychological conditions may have unrealistic expectations, leading to dissatisfaction and legal conflicts.
objectivesThis review aims to explore the impact of psychological disorders on medical aesthetic disputes, analyze their prevalence, and discuss strategies to mitigate associated risks.
methodsA comprehensive review of existing literature was conducted, focusing on the relationship between psychological disorders-such as body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), anxiety, and depression-and medical aesthetic disputes. Key factors influencing patient satisfaction and dispute resolution were examined.
resultsPsychological disorders are significantly associated with higher dissatisfaction rates and increased risk of conflicts in aesthetic medicine. Inadequate psychological screening and poor communication between practitioners and patients contribute to these disputes. Implementing thorough psychological assessments and improving patient selection criteria can help reduce conflict and enhance treatment outcomes.
conclusionsUnderstanding and addressing psychological disorders in aesthetic patients is essential for reducing disputes and improving patient satisfaction. Integrating mental health evaluations into aesthetic practice, along with better communication strategies, can help prevent conflicts and optimize clinical outcomes. Collaboration between aesthetic professionals and mental health specialists is recommended to ensure comprehensive patient care.
