Currently, becoming beautiful is a value among Iranian society, although experts have suggested several complications of cosmetic surgery, but decision to have these surgeries has been dramatically increased in recent years. This increase has imposed high workload and costs on the health care system of the country. This study was conducted to explore the reasons why people perform cosmetic surgery in an Iranian context.
Twenty-one subjects from both sexes who were 22-52 year-old and had undergone face plastic surgery between 1-5 years ago were enrolled and semi-structured data was collected via open interviews, while qualitative content were analyzed utilizing conventional analysis methods. Data analysis considered the theme "my face, my destiny" which contained 2 subcategories of "obtaining a chance for a better life "and" obtaining acceptance in society".

Understanding experiences of these individuals may help health care team particularly nurses to consult them and other individuals who might think about doing cosmetic surgery through education to help them make a better decision for to do cosmetic surgery.
目前，追求美丽在伊朗社会是一种价值观，尽管专家们指出了整容手术的几种并发症，但近年来进行这些手术的决定却急剧增加。这种增长给该国的医疗保健系统带来了高工作量和成本。本研究旨在探讨在伊朗背景下人们进行整容手术的原因。
招募了21名年龄在22至52岁之间、在1至5年前接受过面部整形手术的男女受试者，通过开放式访谈收集半结构化数据，同时采用传统分析方法对定性内容进行分析。数据分析考虑了“我的脸，我的命运”这一主题，其中包含“获得更好生活的机会”和“在社会中获得认可”两个子类别。
参与者将整容手术视为上帝的恩赐，认为这对他们的未来起着重要作用，因此他们接受了手术的风险。
了解这些个体的经历可能有助于医疗团队，尤其是护士，通过教育为他们及其他可能考虑进行整容手术的人提供咨询，帮助他们做出更明智的整容手术决策。
