Sažetak

Aesthetic surgery is a globally popular phenomenon in which the transformative potential of the human body reflects not only as a biological, but also as
a sociocultural category. Noticing the lack of related research, the aim of this paper was to determine the profile of students of the city of Zagreb interested
in aesthetic surgery in order to improve their own appearance in the breadth of their identity attributions. Based on the convenient sample of surveyed students in the city of Zagreb (N= 218), it was determined that their interest in aesthetic surgery is profiled at the level of gender, religiosity, attitudes towards aging and new technologies. Therefore, female students, more non-religious students, more techno-optimistic students, conformed with the attitude that aging should be techno-scientifically terminated, were more interested in aesthetic surgery then their male colleagues, who appear to be more religious, techno-pessimistic, and were indifferent on the issue of anti-aging. In addition, a third of the surveyed students were open to their own aesthetic procedures in the future, mostly stating two or more (non)invasive procedures. The obtained profile of so-called interested aestheticians indicated the need for further research in this topic with a desirable interdisciplinary approach in the context of Croatian society.
