Abstract: Rhinoplastic surgery leads to a change in facial morphology. The functional and aesthetic effects are well known, but the psychological repercussions are more difficult to explore. The aim of this research is to determine the evolution of patients' psychological profiles at different times, the impact of this operation on several psychological and social variables and to deduce postoperative satisfaction or dissatisfaction. This longitudinal study included 7 patients who underwent rhinoplasty between January 2021 and 31 December 2023 at the Marrakech plastic surgery department. A self-questionnaire was distributed in 2 parts. The first assesses the impact of rhinoplasty on self-esteem, body image, quality of life and personality; the second measures postoperative satisfaction.
