I explore relevant issues in APRN aesthetic practice in relation to four major ethical principles of nursing (i.e., autonomy, beneficence, nonmaleficence, justice). I performed a comprehensive literature review of seven electronic bibliographic databases using various inclusion and exclusion criteria as search limiters. Despite the aesthetic specialty's unique challenges, rapid growth, and evidence-based foundation, the search revealed only a limited amount of peer-reviewed literature addressing ethical considerations specific to aesthetic APRNs. Notably, within the limited ethical literature not specific to APRNs, consistent themes emerged related to informed consent, aesthetics as medicine, the economics/marketing of aesthetics, and a need for establishing order. Analysis of these common themes and their relevance to advanced aesthetic nursing scope of practice is essential to defining the role of the aesthetic APRN. Likewise, thematic analysis helps identify gaps in the literature informing APRN aesthetic practice and reveals ethical challenges that may pose undue risk to aesthetic patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":74460,"journal":{"name":"Plastic and aesthetic nursing","volume":"45 3","pages":"157-162"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144593120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to compare body appreciation and the acceptance of aesthetic surgery among Turkish versus non-Turkish medical tourists presenting for aesthetic surgery. We used the Body Appreciation Scale (BAS) and the Acceptance of Cosmetic Surgery Scale (ACSS) to measure these variables. We observed significant differences in the average BAS scores between Turkish and non-Turkish participants (p < .01), which were indicative of varying levels of body appreciation. However, we found no significant differences in the ACSS scores, both in the subdimension scores and the total scores (p > .05). We also noted a significant positive correlation between the BAS and ACSS scores among Turkish and non-Turkish medical tourists (p < .01). This pioneering study underscores the importance of culturally informed health care for patients undergoing aesthetic surgery. Recognizing the cultural backgrounds of women may enhance their body appreciation and acceptance of cosmetic procedures.
