Between March and April 2023, an online survey was conducted in collaboration with Newsweek, inviting over 2,000 medical experts with expertise in plastic surgery, including doctors, surgeons, plastic surgery clinic managers, and other medical professionals. The survey received over 8,400 votes for each procedure, which were subsequently collected and analyzed.
