The development of aesthetic surgery as a major segment of plastic and reconstructive surgery is accepted among physicians. From a procedure at one time limited to the few, aesthetic surgery of the aging face has become commonplace. The patient seeking aesthetic surgery is attempting to improve self-image. The three major factors necessary for successful results are proper patient selection, a careful preoperative psychological evaluation, and expertise in carrying out the surgical procedure including management of complications. A total preoperative evaluation is essential to individualize the appropriate procedure which is correct for the particular patient.
美容外科作为整形与重建外科的一个主要分支的发展已为医生们所接受。从曾经仅限于少数人的手术，面部抗衰美容手术已变得很常见。寻求美容手术的患者试图改善自我形象。取得成功结果所需的三个主要因素是恰当的患者选择、仔细的术前心理评估以及实施手术程序（包括处理并发症）的专业技能。全面的术前评估对于为特定患者量身定制合适的手术程序至关重要。
