Objective: This study was conducted to determine the psychosocial experiences of men with rhinoplasty. Material and Methods: This study was a qualitative study conducted using the phenomenological method. The study was conducted between May and June 2022. A total of 13 men with rhinoplasty were interviewed. Data were collected with an information form and a semi-structured interview form. The data were analysed using content analysis and themes were created. The study protocol was carried out in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration of 1975. Permission was obtained from the ethics committee and individual consent was obtained from participants. Results: The ages of the men participating in the study ranged from 19 to 32 years. The majority of the participants had undergraduate education, middle income level, were employed, and single. Two main themes and 5 sub-themes emerged. The themes were mirror (appearance & new nose/new life) and comments about the nose (pressure, perspective and before/after). Participants emphasized the positive and negative effects of rhinoplasty surgeries in terms of psychosocial impact. Conclusion: It was found that with rhinoplasty, men's appearance improved and their self-confidence increased; however, they were exposed to pressure and negative statements about the nose, and need comprehensive counselling about the process. In line with this, counselling-based interventions by mental health professionals can be planned for men before and after rhinoplasty. Educational interventions for youth, adults, families and society can be implemented.

Amaç: Bu çalışma, burun estetiği yaptıran erkeklerin psikososyal deneyimlerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Fenomenolojik yöntem kullanılarak yapılan nitel bir çalışmadır. Çalışma, Mayıs-Haziran 2022 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Amaçlı örnekleme yöntemi ile belirlenmiş, burun estetiği olan 13 erkek ile görüşülmüştür. Veriler, kişisel bilgi formu ve yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formuyla derinlemesine görüşme yapılarak toplanmıştır. Veriler içerik analizi yöntemi ile çözümlenerek temalar oluşturulmuştur. Çalışma protokolü, 1975 Helsinki Deklarasyonuna uygun olarak yürütülmüştür. Etik kurul izni ve katılımcılardan bireysel onam alınmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışmada erkeklerin yaşları 19 ve 32 yaş arasında değişmektedir. Katılımcıların çoğunluğu lisans eğitimi almış, orta gelir düzeyine sahip, çalışan ve bekârdır. Araştırmada 2 ana tema ve 5 alt tema ortaya çıkmıştır. Temalar ve alt temalar; ayna (görünüm ve yeni burun yeni yaşam) ve burun hakkında söylemler (baskı, bakış açısı, öncesi/sonrası) olarak belirlenmiştir. Katılımcılar, burun estetiği ameliyatlarının psikososyal açıdan olumlu ve olumsuz etkilerini vurgulamışlardır. Sonuç: Burun estetiği ile erkeklerin görünümlerinin iyileştiği ve öz güvenlerinin arttığı bununla birlikte burun konusunda baskıya ve olumsuz söylemlere maruz kaldıkları ve süreçle ilgili kapsamlı bir danışmanlığa ihtiyacın olduğu bulunmuştur. Bu doğrultuda, ruh sağlığı profesyonelleri rinoplasti öncesinde ve sonrasında erkeklere danışmanlık temelli müdahaleler planlanabilir. Gençleri, yetişkinleri, aileleri ve toplumu temel alan eğitimsel müdahaleler yapılabilir.
