This study investigated the purposes and psychological changes before and after aesthetic care by demographic characteristics (age, education, main income, average monthly income) among elderly people, and the results found the following: First, in terms of perception and awareness of psychological changes before and after aesthetic care by age, ‘60-64’ was more pronounced than ‘65 or older’. Concerning the purposes of aesthetic care based on educational background, some differences were found in ‘to go out or meet someone’, ‘for a change’, ‘interest in the opposite sex’, and ‘reduction of stress’. The perception and psychological changes before and after aesthetic care were higher in the less educated. In terms of the purposes of aesthetic care based on main income, the perception of aesthetic care was high when the respondents had a job. However, positive psychological changes were found after aesthetic care regardless of main income. Furthermore, even though no particular difference was observed in the general purposes of aesthetic care by average monthly income, and the respondents revealed a high interest in aesthetic care. The purposes of aesthetic care revealed some differences by age, education, main income, average monthly income, occupation and purpose (e.g., going out, meeting someone, for a change, self-satisfaction, social life, reduction of stress, etc.), but elderly people (age 75 or even older) tend to have aesthetic care. After such aesthetic care, they experienced positive psychological changes.


根据人口统计学特征(年龄、学历、主要收入、月收入),考察高龄者的美容目的及美容前后心理变化,得出如下结论。首先,在年龄这一人口统计学特征方面,相比65岁以上高龄者,60~64岁老人的美容意识以及对美容前后的心理变化认知度也更高。其次,在外出应酬、转换心情、赢得异性好感、缓解压力等美容目的选项上,不同学历的高龄者呈现出差异,具体表现为学历越低,美容意识越高,而且美容前后的心理呈现积极变化。第三,在主要收入方面,从事职业活动的高龄者,对美容目的较为明确,但在美容前后的心理变化方面,与主要收入无关,都呈现出积极的变化。第四,月收入上的差异,在美容目的方面并没有呈现明显的差异,换取话说,与月收入高低无关,高龄者对美容目的都表现出较高的兴趣。由此可知,高龄人口的美容目的,根据年龄、学历、主要收入、月收入等人口统计学特征,在职场、外出、聚会、转换心情、自我满足、社会生活、缓解压力等选项上呈现一定的差异,但直到75岁以上都在坚持美容,而且美容后都呈现出积极的心理变化。
