The purpose of the research was to determine the effectiveness of schema therapy on the evaluation of body fitness and concern about not accepting the application of women for cosmetic surgery. The current research was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design, a control group, and a 2-month follow-up period. The statistical population of this research was all the women who were referred to cosmetic clinics for cosmetic surgery in Tehran in 2021, and 30 people were selected by purposeful sampling and randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group. Data were collected using the Cash Body Image Scale (MBRSQ, 1990) and Sensitivity to Rejection (RSQ, 1996). Schema therapy intervention was performed during 8 sessions of 90 minutes once a week. The research data was analyzed by variance analysis with repeated measurements. The results showed that schema therapy is effective in reducing fitness evaluation, worry about not accepting the request, and waiting for a response in women applying for cosmetic surgery (p<0.05). Also, the results showed that this effectiveness is permanent in the follow-up period (p<0.05). It is concluded that schema therapy is an effective treatment in reducing the evaluation of fitness, worry about not accepting the request, and waiting for a response in women applying for cosmetic surgery.
