Resumen

This study aims to determine if cosmetic outcomes play an important role for patients undergoing bariatric surgery, when considering a surgical approach. A video-animation describing open, conventional laparoscopic, and reduced incision magnetic assisted surgery was shown. The patient’s perceptions of the surgical approaches were recorded using an anonymous survey. Fifty-one patients completed the survey. The median age was 45 (IQR: 36–51), and 38 (74.5%) were women. Cosmesis was found to be an important factor (77%) for selecting a surgical approach. Ninety percent of the patients believe that reduced incision magnet-assisted surgery provides superior cosmesis. Cosmetic results may play a determinant role when choosing a surgical approach.
