Abstract

Background: Telemedicine has rapidly advanced in plastic and aesthetic surgery, but obtaining high-quality images during online hair transplantation consultations remains challenging, impeding doctors' visual evaluation.

Objective: To investigate patients' attitude and satisfaction with online hair transplantation consultations, and to develop a standardized photo guideline to help patients capture high-quality images.

Methods: We surveyed patients' attitudes and satisfaction with online hair transplantation consultations from November 23, 2023 to May 3, 2024. Meanwhile, five surgeons developed a standardized photo guideline and assessed its effectiveness by comparing image quality between two patient groups: those using the photo guideline and those not using it.

Results: We collected 570 responses to the attitude questionnaire, with 76.66% of participants expressing a willingness to undergo online hair transplantation consultations. The patient satisfaction survey yielded an overall satisfaction score of 4.44 ± 0.72 out of 5 for online hair transplantation consultations. Furthermore, all five surgeons rated photographs taken by patients following the photo guideline as higher quality compared to those taken by patients who did not use it.

Conclusion: Patients show high satisfaction with online hair transplantation consultations. The standardized photo guideline proves effective in helping patients take high-quality photographs for online consultations.

Level of evidence iv: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article. For a full description of these Evidence-Based Medicine ratings, please refer to the Table of Contents or the online Instructions to Authors www.springer.com/00266 .

背景：远程医疗在整形和美容外科领域发展迅速，但在在线植发咨询过程中获取高质量图像仍具有挑战性，阻碍了医生的视觉评估：调查患者对在线植发咨询的态度和满意度，并制定标准化照片指南，帮助患者获取高质量图像：我们在 2023 年 11 月 23 日至 2024 年 5 月 3 日期间调查了患者对在线植发咨询的态度和满意度。同时，五名外科医生制定了标准化照片指南，并通过比较两组患者（使用照片指南和未使用照片指南的患者）的图像质量来评估其有效性：我们收集了 570 份态度问卷，其中 76.66% 的参与者表示愿意接受在线植发咨询。在患者满意度调查中，在线植发咨询的总体满意度为 4.44 ± 0.72（满分 5 分）。此外，与未使用照片指南的患者相比，所有五位外科医生都认为遵循照片指南的患者拍摄的照片质量更高：结论：患者对在线植发咨询的满意度很高。结论：患者对在线植发咨询的满意度很高。事实证明，标准化照片指南能有效帮助患者为在线咨询拍摄高质量的照片。有关这些循证医学评级的完整说明，请参阅目录或在线作者须知 www.springer.com/00266 。

期刊介绍： Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is a publication of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the official journal of the European Association of Societies of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (EASAPS), Società Italiana di Chirurgia Plastica Ricostruttiva ed Estetica (SICPRE), Vereinigung der Deutschen Aesthetisch Plastischen Chirurgen (VDAPC), the Romanian Aesthetic Surgery Society (RASS), Asociación Española de Cirugía Estética Plástica (AECEP), La Sociedad Argentina de Cirugía Plástica, Estética y Reparadora (SACPER), the Rhinoplasty Society of Europe (RSE), the Iranian Society of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgeons (ISPAS), the Singapore Association of Plastic Surgeons (SAPS), the Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS), the Egyptian Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (ESPRS), and the Sociedad Chilena de Cirugía Plástica, Reconstructiva y Estética (SCCP). Aesthetic Plastic Surgery provides a forum for original articles advancing the art of aesthetic plastic surgery. Many describe surgical craftsmanship; others deal with complications in surgical procedures and methods by which to treat or avoid them. Coverage includes "second thoughts" on established techniques, which might be abandoned, modified, or improved. Also included are case histories; improvements in surgical instruments, pharmaceuticals, and operating room equipment; and discussions of problems such as the role of psychosocial factors in the doctor-patient and the patient-public interrelationships. Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is covered in Current Contents/Clinical Medicine, SciSearch, Research Alert, Index Medicus-Medline, and Excerpta Medica/Embase.
