Background and objective.
In 2017, the Body Dysmorphic Disorder Questionnaire-Aesthetic Surgery instrument for detection of Body Dysmorphic Disorder in patients seeking cosmetic rhinoplasty was validated in English.

For the application of the Spanish version, candidates for rhinoplasty for the first time older than 18 years and control subjects matched by sex and age who attended a private consultation between April 1 to 30, 2020 were included.
Results.
The Body Dysmorphic Disorder Questionnaire-Aesthetic Surgery instrument was translated and adapted for use in a Spanish-speaking population. Good consistency was obtained with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.89.
Conclusions.
The Spanish version of the Body Dysmorphic Disorder Questionnaire-Aesthetic Surgery instrument obtained proved to be understandable and adapted for use in Colombia. Its ease of use makes it a potentially useful tool.
