.] Objective: To describe the prevalence of anxiety symptom and personality disorder among medical aesthetic clients, and explore related factors of anxiety symptoms among them. Methods: Totally 788 clients who consulted in a cosmetic plastic surgery department were recruited in a tertiary hospital in Beijing from November 2021 to July 2023. Using the Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire-4 (PDQ-4) and the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) as assessment instruments, with a cutoff point of 42 and 50 points respectively, for screening out personality disorder and anxiety symptom. Statistical analysis was conducted by analysis of variance, chi-square tests, multivariate linear regression and logistic regression. Results: The rate of anxiety symptom among the medical aesthetic clients was of 15. 23% (120/788), and the prevalence of personality disorder was 3.50% (28/788). Age was negatively associated with SAS scores (β = 0. 82, P=0.009), PDQ-4 score was positively associated with SAS score (β = 0. 15, P<0.001), eye plastic surgery, facial contouring and minimally invasive plastic surgery were positively associated with SAS score (β = 2.00-3.64, P<0.05). Conclusion: The younger and the more prominent the personality dysfunction the clients are, the severer anxiety symptom they have. The clients who consult for eye plastic surgery, facial contouring, and minimally invasive plastic surgery have severer anxiety symptom. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
