Description
Summary:  With the continuous development of aesthetic surgery, a large number of excellent publications have been reported on aesthetic surgery. However, no relevant studies have reported the latest advancements and hot trends in aesthetic surgery in recent years. In this study, we extracted relevant publications from four authoritative aesthetic surgery journals ( Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery , Aesthetic Surgery Journal , Aesthetic Plastic Surgery , and Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology ) and used bibliometrics to comprehensively analyze current hot trends. We found a significant increase in the number of quality studies in aesthetic surgery, and the USA was the leading country in the field of aesthetic surgery, as evidenced by the fact that it ranks first worldwide for the total number of publications and citations. Currently, the prevention and treatment of complications related to aesthetic surgery remain research hotspots. Meanwhile, androgenetic alopecia, hyperplastic scarring, and stem cell research are hot directions for future research, and more research is required for exploration.
