A survey conducted in China in January 2022 concluded that while 85 percent of Chinese people had an accepting attitude towards medical aesthetics, opinions varied considerably between different age groups. While people born in the 1990s were generally positive and liberal with the matter, more than one in four people born before 1970 completely rejected medical aesthetics operations.
