The Impact and Influence of JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery

Meaningful and influential articles written by leading thought leaders in the field are the lifeblood of a journal. I am pleased to announce that the Impact Factor (IF) of JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery has reached a new high of 2.70 (up 58% from last year's IF of 1.74). This places our journal near the top of all journals in our comparative group of journals that publish similar content. Although this metric is imperfect, it is often recognized by the scientific and publishing community as one important measure of comparing journals in its scientific impact and influence. Recall that IF is calculated by counting all of the citations to every article published in a journal divided by the number of full-length articles (Original Investigations, Special Communications, Reviews) published in that journal during the 2 preceding years.
