This letter addresses the study by AlEnazi et al. on public perceptions and knowledge of surgical facial rejuvenation in Saudi Arabia. The letter points out several areas for improvement: potential sampling bias due to social media-based data collection, lack of reported results from initial questionnaire pilot testing, and inadequate exploration of religious concerns as barriers. The letter also suggests correlational analysis between income levels and willingness for procedures, as well as assessing satisfaction among those who underwent facial rejuvenation. Future research should focus on diverse population selection, longitudinal studies, and detailed exploration of specific barriers.Level of Evidence V This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

这封信讨论了AlEnazi等人关于沙特阿拉伯公众对面部整形手术的认知和了解的研究。信中指出了几个有待改进的方面：基于社交媒体的数据收集可能存在抽样偏差，初始问卷预测试的结果未报告，以及对宗教顾虑作为障碍的探讨不足。信中还建议分析收入水平与手术意愿之间的相关性，并评估接受面部整形手术者的满意度。未来的研究应侧重于多样化的人群选择、纵向研究以及对具体障碍的详细探讨。证据级别V 本期刊要求作者为每篇文章指定证据级别。有关这些循证医学评级的完整描述，请参阅目录或在线作者指南www.springer.com/00266 。
