This study aimed at understanding the level of awareness and elucidates the attitude and disposition of healthcare workers to cosmetic surgery in Osogbo, Nigeria.
A questionnaire-based survey was done at LAUTECH Teaching Hospital, Osogbo, in 2012.
Questionnaires were administered to 213 workers and students in the hospital.
These were then analysed using SPSS version 16.0 with frequencies, means, and so forth.
Respondents were 33 doctors, 32 nurses, 79 medical students, 60 nursing students, 4 administrative staff, 1 pharmacist, and 4 ward maids.
There is fair awareness about cosmetic surgery generally with 94.5% and its availability in Nigeria with 67.0%.
A fewer proportion of the respondents (44.5%) were aware of the facility for cosmetic surgery in their locality.
A large percentage (86.5%) favorably considers facilities outside Nigeria when making choice of facility to have cosmetic surgery done.
85.5% considered the information about cosmetic surgery reliable while 19.0% objected going for cosmetic surgery of their choice even if done free.
Only 34.0% consider cosmetic surgery socially acceptable.
Although the awareness of health workers about cosmetic surgery is high, their disposition to it is low.
There is a need to increase the awareness in order to increase cosmetic surgery practice in Nigeria.
