Abstract:
Body dissatisfaction and facial augmentation are two alarming concerns in today’s generation. Previously done studies disclosed a sustainable relation between body image issues and media exposure. Statistics shows that 68% of Instagram users are females from the age group of 18-29 years. This research objected to conduct an empirical analysis to find the relationship between Instagram use, body dissatisfaction and facial augmentation. Questionnaire comprising of four parts Instagram Use, Body Image, Body Dissatisfaction and Facial Augmentation was designed for females specifically where the sample size of population was (n=100). Analysis showed that frequent use of Instagram and content like idealized beauty images have a direct effect on females’ mind resulting in body dissatisfaction. Hence the results proved that body dissatisfaction significantly positive relationship with facial augmentation. As body dissatisfaction will rise trend of facial augmentation will grow.

Abstract:
The debilitating impact of body image dissatisfaction has been well-documented, leading to attempts to propose ways to alleviate the dissatisfaction. These proposals are drawn primarily from findings from studies on female youth. The current study extends this work, and contributes to an emerging initiative to attempt to reduce body image dissatisfaction in homosexual male youth. Past empirical findings have identified these adolescents to be particularly prone to body image dissatisfaction. With the formal operational stage of cognitive development, adolescents are particularly self-conscious and scrutinize their body image more critically, leading to body image dissatisfaction. The aim of the current study was to identify a potential protective factor that might help reduce the impact of body scrutinization in Thai homosexual male adolescents. These participants were selected due to the relative lack of published research on body image in Asian homosexual males. Additionally, despite its orientation toward the collectivistic fulfillment of social roles and obligations, Thai culture is quite accepting of sexual minorities. Homosexual male body image ideals are portrayed in the media with relatively high frequency. For this reason, internalization of media influence was selected as a potential mediator of the relationship between body scrutinization and body image dissatisfaction. Data were collected from 114 Thai homosexual male youths who responded to online questionnaires measuring body scrutinization, media internalization, and body image dissatisfaction. As hypothesized, findings demonstrated that body scrutinization significantly predicted both body image dissatisfaction and media internalization. Media internalization significantly but partially mediated the relationship between body scrutinization and body image dissatisfaction. Implications were discussed in terms of the preventative and therapeutic potentials for reducing media influence on body image dissatisfaction when the scrutinization was engaged.

Abstract:
Longitudinal studies have shown mixed findings on the association between body image dissatisfaction and self-esteem among adolescents. This study examined the longitudinal, reciprocal influences between body image dissatisfaction and self-esteem among Korean pre- and early adolescents by using nationally representative longitudinal panel data from the Korean Youth Panel Study (KYPS). Analyses based on 2,230 participants indicated that girls’ body image dissatisfaction was significantly higher than boys’. The trajectory of body image dissatisfaction increased sharply during pre- and early adolescence, but stabilized afterwards for both boys and girls. Self-esteem deteriorated rapidly initially, but began to recover as adolescent girls and boys matured. Structural equation modeling showed that reciprocal influences between body image dissatisfaction and self-esteem were detected for boys. Body image dissatisfaction among girls predicted self-esteem during the entire period, while the opposite direction from self-esteem to body image dissatisfaction emerged two years later. The present study found that, during pre- and early adolescence, body image dissatisfaction and self-esteem develop in a circular fashion by forming a vicious cycle. Implications for the development of intervention and prevention programs are discussed in consideration of age and gender.

Abstract:
Disordered eating and body image have been widely studied in college students and children. However, few studies have examined body image dissatisfaction in adulthood. Therefore, this study sought to determine the prevalence of body image dissatisfaction in adult men and women. One hundred and thirty-nine adults were surveyed on body dissatisfaction and possible relating factors. It was found that media influence predicted body dissatisfaction in women and that age, family pressure and self-esteem predicted body image dissatisfaction in both men and women. Because adults' views about their bodies can have an impact on those of their children, it is important that researchers continue to examine body image dissatisfaction and comparable issues within adult populations.

Abstract:
Body image is a multidimensional construct that reflects attitudes and perceptions about an individual’s physical appearance under the cultural norms and ideals rather than on actual body dimension. Previous research argues that body image problems are linked to many potentially harmful behaviors and mental illnesses, such as obsessive exercise, low self-esteem, substance abuse and eating disorders. Early study primarily focuses on analyzing and comparing body image dissatisfaction of women in particular countries. However, cross-cultural studies need to move on from simply comparing the absolute levels to investigating the relationships between several variables. It is still unclear about the influences of specific cultures, namely collectivism vs. individualism, on both thin-ideal media effect and body image dissatisfaction. There is no integrated research analyzing how various levels of acculturation and different cultures interact, thus further influencing women’s body image dissatisfaction. The underlying psychological mechanisms that resulted from acculturation are still less explored. Current study hypothesized that thin-ideal media exposure increases women’s body image dissatisfaction. Additionally, thin-ideal media and cultures were predicted to interact. Collectivist group with high acculturation differed from the collectivist group with low acculturation and fell close to the individualist group in body image dissatisfaction. Thus, researcher predicted that thin-ideal media effects on body image dissatisfaction were stronger for females in collectivist group with low acculturation than for the other two culture groups. In general, women living in the collectivistic societies would report more body image dissatisfaction than those living in the individualistic societies. This study used a 3 x 2 x 2 mixed design to examine the moderating role of collectivism vs. individualism on media influences on body image dissatisfaction among 133 female college students, aged from 18 to 23 years old, attending the University of Texas at Austin. The results indicated that thin-ideal media significantly increased women’s body image dissatisfaction, whereas healthy media decreased women’s body image dissatisfaction. In general, women living in the collectivistic society reported more body image dissatisfaction than women living in the individualistic society. Contrary to the prediction, body image dissatisfaction of women in the collectivistic group with high acculturation did not differ from those in the collectivistic group with low acculturation. Therefore, the moderating role of acculturation was not found.

Abstract:
Background and aimsLittle is known about the relationship between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and body image. The aim of this systematic review was to summarise the evidence on body image dissatisfaction in patients with IBD across four areas: (1) body image tools, (2) prevalence, (3) factors associated with body image dissatisfaction in IBD and (4) association between IBD and quality of life.MethodsTwo reviewers screened, selected, quality assessed and extracted data from studies in duplicate. EMBASE, MEDLINE, PsycINFO and Cochrane CENTRAL were searched to April 2018. Study design–specific critical appraisal tools were used to assess risk of bias. Narrative analysis was undertaken due to heterogeneity.ResultsFifty-seven studies using a body image tool were included; 31 for prevalence and 16 and 8 for associated factors and association with quality of life, respectively. Studies reported mainly mean or median scores. Evidence suggested female gender, age, fatigue, disease activity and steroid use were associated with increased body image dissatisfaction, which was also associated with decreased quality of life.ConclusionThis is the first systematic review on body image in patients with IBD. The evidence suggests that body image dissatisfaction can negatively impact patients, and certain factors are associated with increased body image dissatisfaction. Greater body image dissatisfaction was also associated with poorer quality of life. However, the methodological and reporting quality of studies was in some cases poor with considerable heterogeneity. Future IBD research should incorporate measurement of body image dissatisfaction using validated tools.

Abstract:
A history of body dissatisfaction may lead to lifelong emotional problems among women. Throughout life, a female's social environment may protect her from body image disturbances or exacerbate them. There are few studies investigating older women's experiences with long term body dissatisfaction. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore and understand women's experiences with lifelong body dissatisfaction. More specifically, the objective of this study was to explore and better understand the personal body dissatisfaction triggers and outcomes of women's persistent body dissatisfaction. Seven adult women (Mean age = 55 years) were interviewed to better understand their lifelong body image struggles and health implications. Personal body image triggers were identified as: weight, appearance, health, social comparison, and significant others. A perception of being overweight and the desire to maintain weight and a youthful appearance were described as the most significant triggers of body dissatisfaction. The influence of social comparison and the perception of significant others' expectations on body dissatisfaction were present across all participants' lives. Cognitive (e.g., constant rumination and self-acceptance), behavioural (e.g., health and appearance related behaviours), affective (e.g., negative and positive body-related emotions), and social outcomes (e.g., social physique anxiety) of body dissatisfaction were found. The importance of better understanding women's body dissatisfaction experiences across the lifespan is discussed. The importance of recognizing individual differences among women and their body dissatisfaction experiences is also emphasized.
La présence d'antécédents d'insatisfaction de l'image corporelle chez la femme peut mener à des troubles émotifs qui perdurent tout au long de sa vie. Au cours d'une vie, l'environnement social de la femme peut la protéger des perturbations de l'image corporelle ou, au contraire, peut les exacerber. Il existe peu d'études au sujet de l'insatisfaction de l'image à long terme chez la femme plus âgée. C'est pourquoi cette étude phénoménologique avait pour but d'explorer et de comprendre les expériences d'insatisfaction de l'image corporelle chez la femme. Plus spécifiquement, les objectifs ciblent les déclencheurs personnels de l'insatisfaction et les conséquences de cette insatisfaction. Des entrevues ont été réalisées auprès de sept femmes (âge moyen 55 ans) afin de mieux comprendre les effets des perceptions négatives de leur image au cours de leur vie et les conséquences de celles-ci sur la santé. Les déclencheurs de l'insatisfaction de l'image corporelle au niveau de la personne ont été identifiés comme étant : le poids, l'apparence physique, la santé, les différences sociales et la perception des proches. Une perception de surpoids, le désir de vouloir maintenir son poids et la volonté de conserver une apparence jeune ont été les éléments déclencheurs de l'insatisfaction corporelle les plus souvent mentionnés. Par ailleurs, l'influence des différences sociales et la perception des attentes des proches au sujet de l'insatisfaction de leur image corporelle ont été présentes tout au long de la vie des participantes. Ainsi, des aspects en relation avec l'insatisfaction corporelle ont été trouvés, et ce, aux niveaux: cognitif (c.-à-d. les ruminations mentales et l'acception du soi), comportemental (c.-à-d. la santé et des comportements reliés à l'image), affectif (c.-à-d. des émotions positives et négatives en relation avec l'image corporelle) et à celui des impacts sociaux (c.-à-d. l'anxiété physique sociale). De plus, l'importance de mieux comprendre les expériences d'insatisfaction de l'image corporelle tout au long de la vie a été discutée, celle de reconnaitre les différences individuelles chez les femmes et leur expérience d'insatisfaction sont aussi soulignées.

Abstract:
The practice of medicine has always been a balance of the latest scientific advances, and a less well-defined ‘art’ of patient care. Much of this ‘art’ is good communication. In cosmetic surgery, advances in anatomical and scientific knowledge have allowed plastic surgeons to enhance youthful beauty to a level never thought possible in the past. Technical success does not, however, equate with patient satisfaction. All surgeons will have the occasional patient who is unhappy with a result that the surgeon feels is reasonable. It is likely that something was missed in the patient preparation for surgery, possibly a psychological condition that was overlooked. Cosmetic surgery patients are, by definition, dissatisfied with their body image. This dissatisfaction could be understandable and reasonable, or it may be excessive and abnormal. Within the cosmetic surgery patient spectrum there will be patients with body dysmorphic disorder or other problems that will place both patient and surgeon at risk of an unhappy outcome even though there has been a good surgical result. Plastic surgeons must have insight into the psychology of body image dissatisfaction. Subspecialization in modern medicine means that today’s plastic surgeons may need the help of psychologists to assist in the identification of these patients.

Abstract:
There is a concern that the bodies that are shown to us in sexually explicit media are changing what we think is beautiful, are making us anxious and depressed, and even are pushing us to engage in self-harmful behavior. This chapter provides theoretical explanations for why pornography images could impair health and reviews studies that have investigated this question. The chapter covers findings related to pubic hair removal, labiaplasty, vulva acceptance, men’s genital dissatisfaction, satisfaction with body shape and size, self-esteem and self-confidence, and expectations of partners’ bodies. The chapter concludes that pornography likely harms some people’s self-image, and for a minority of those who are harmed, it drives them to extreme behaviors and has mental health consequences. For the majority, pornography either has no effect, improves how they feel about their bodies, or underscores the body-related attitudes that they have already acquired from non-sexually-explicit media.

Abstract:
Eating disorders are one of the most prevalent classes of psychiatric disorders for adolescent and young-adult females, affecting approximately 10% of young women. Approximately 40-50% of women experience body dissatisfaction, which is a key risk factor for eating disorders. Unfortunately, less than 50% of those with eating disorders receive treatment and treatment can be very expensive. Thus, developing and disseminating effective prevention programs has become a public healthy priority. Of the many eating disorder prevention programs that have been created, very few have significantly reduced eating disorder risk factors and symptoms in controlled trials, and only two (Body Project, Project Health) have significantly reduced the risk for future onset of eating disorders.
