This study, conducted at the Clementino Fraga Filho University Hospital of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, aimed to calculate the prevalence of BDD in patients undergoing aesthetic plastic surgery and highlight the relevance of the disorder in the specialty. The Brazilian version of the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale modified for Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD-YBOCS) was used to identify symptoms. The sample included 77 patients, 86% female. It was found that 72% presented mild to moderate symptoms and 28% severe symptoms. Among the patients, 56% spent more than 3 hours a day thinking about body defects, and 96% reported significant distress regarding appearance. The highest prevalence was observed in abdominoplasty (67%), followed by fat grafting in the face (55%). The prevalence found is consistent with some previous studies, but varies in relation to others. The discussion highlights the importance of screening for BDD before cosmetic surgery, recommending that plastic surgeons perform psychological evaluations to identify patients with the disorder and refer them, when necessary, for appropriate treatment. The presence of BDD is not an absolute contraindication for surgery, but it should be carefully considered. Surgeons' training should include psychodynamic aspects to improve understanding of the psychological impacts of cosmetic surgery and avoid legal disputes. Detailed documentation and informed consent are essential to protect the professional.

The main objective of the current study was to carry out a review of the literature on nymphoplasty and vulvar aesthetics, and to evaluate the degree of satisfaction of patients undergoing the surgical technique proposed for the treatment of hypertrophy of the labia minora. In the immediate preoperative period and 60 days postoperatively, patients were interviewed using a specific questionnaire regarding the degree of satisfaction regarding genital appearance and its function, before and after the surgical procedure. The data collected showed that 87% of women who underwent nymphoplasty were extremely satisfied with the final result. It is concluded that when well indicated and carried out by trained medical professionals, high levels of satisfaction among patients are reported, reflecting positively on aesthetic, functional and psychological aspects.
