Abstract
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to translate the FACE-Q "Rhinoplasty" module into French and validate its use for the French-speaking population.
DESIGN: "Satisfaction with the nose" and "Satisfaction with nostrils" questionnaires were used and translated.
SETTINGS: We were granted permission to use the FACE-Q Rhinoplasty module by the development team. These two questionnaires constitute the Rhinoplasty module of the FACE-Q questionnaire. ISPOR and WHO recommendations were used to complete the translation process from English into French in six steps.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENT: Our goal was to obtain, not a literal translation, but rather a translation of the idea or concept.
RESULTS: Each step allowed us to make changes to achieve a conceptual translation equivalent to the original version.
CONCLUSION: The FACE-Q questionnaire is a reference in the field of cosmetic surgery outcome evaluation. The use of two validated translation recommendations, with a six-step translation-back-translation process, leading to a French version corresponding to the original. This version is usable in a French-speaking population. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
