The authors are to be commended on their manuscript, “Patient Factors That Impact FACE-Q Aesthetics Outcomes: An Exploratory Cross-sectional Regression Analysis”—any attempt to improve and streamline the future study of facial aesthetics outcomes is welcomed.1 The authors argue that an understanding of patient-specific variables that impact FACE-Q scores is critical to control for these confounding variables in future studies. The FACE-Q Aesthetics module is a validated patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) used to assess patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in surgical and nonsurgical facial rejuvenation.2 There has been rapid growth of its application in the aesthetics literature since 2010—as the authors point out—and future publishing of FACE-Q outcomes studies is certain. Therefore, this study has potential to improve the design and methodology of future FACE-Q-based outcomes research in nonsurgical facial rejuvenation.

The study utilized FACE-Q Aesthetic scales to focus on 3 important postintervention outcomes: overall patient satisfaction, psychological well-being, and impact on social interactions. These outcomes are well-chosen and of particular research interest to plastic surgery and dermatology facial aesthetics providers.3 After all, the goal of nonsurgical facial rejuvenation is to improve objective facial appearance and thereby optimize a patient's physical, psychological, and social wellness. The study methodology is reasonable for its goal and utilizes sound multivariable linear regression analyses for each FACE-Q scale. The relatively large patient population (n = 1259) from similar western cultures (Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States) strengthens the results.
