Engagement in Plastic Surgery Content on YouTube: A Comprehensive Analysis.
Background: As the digital age progresses, individuals are increasingly seeking online websites for the dissemination of information. YouTube, the most popular free video streaming platform worldwide, garners over 2 billion users. Plastic surgery information is widely available on YouTube and acts as a common interface for the distribution of plastic surgery-related information. This investigation aimed to identify trends in YouTube videos describing common plastic surgery search terms based on narrator gender, channel type, and language patterns.
Methods: Top-ranking videos for six common plastic surgery search terms were queried. Video characteristics and transcripts for each video were extracted. Transcripts were subsequently analyzed using the Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count software. Comparisons were performed using various statistical analysis methods.
Results: Significant differences in audience engagement were noted by search topic (p < 0.05). Speakers in plastic surgery videos were predominantly male only (108 [60%]), with notable variation observed across channel type and search topic. Significant differences were found for videos on medical professional channels (p = 0.004) and videos regarding gynecomastia (p < 0.05). Linguistic pattern analysis revealed that female speakers used more authentic (p = 0.01) and emotional (p = 0.012) language than male speakers.
Conclusion: With YouTube being the most visited online video platform website worldwide, plastic surgeons must understand trends to appropriately tailor their content and maximize their social media reach. Also, while plastic surgery is making strides in the right direction, continued work should be done in promoting adequate representation among online material.
No level assigned: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each submission to which Evidence-Based Medicine rankings are applicable. This excludes Review Articles, Book Reviews, and manuscripts that concern Basic Science, Animal Studies, Cadaver Studies, and Experimental Studies.

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.
