摘要

Background

Non‑invasive cosmetic procedures are increasingly popular aesthetic treatments that enhance appearance without surgical intervention. This study examines aesthetic satisfaction and willingness to undergo future non‑invasive procedures among adults in Saudi Arabia who previously received such treatments.

Methods

A cross‑sectional study was conducted between December 1–22, 2024, using an online questionnaire distributed via social media. Eligible participants were Saudi men and women aged 18–60 who had undergone at least one non‑invasive cosmetic procedure. A total of 848 participants met the inclusion criteria. Descriptive statistics, binomial tests, and Chi‑square analyses were performed.

Results

Most participants were female (81.1%) and aged 18–28 (55%). Laser hair removal (72.5%), Botox (39%), and chemical peels (32.8%) were the most common procedures. Redness (60.4%), edema (30.3%), and bruising (24.6%) were the most reported side effects. Aesthetic satisfaction was high, with 93% reporting improvement on the GAIS scale. Future willingness for procedures was expressed by 66.7% of participants, while cost influenced decision‑making for 67.8%. No significant differences were found in satisfaction between treatments performed by dermatologists and plastic surgeons.

Conclusions

Non‑invasive cosmetic procedures are widely used among young, educated women in Saudi Arabia. Despite common minor side effects, satisfaction levels are high, and many participants are open to future treatments, although cost remains an important consideration. Level of Evidence: not gradable.
