Abstract

This narrative literature review examined the intricate relationship between body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) and dermatological conditions, with a brief focus on those characterized by conspicuous skin irregularities such as acne vulgaris, psoriasis, and vitiligo. Highlighting the significant prevalence of BDD among individuals afflicted with dermatological issues, our analysis illuminated the profound psychological repercussions stemming from an exaggerated preoccupation with perceived skin imperfections. Through an exploration of the underlying BDD symptoms, we analyzed the complex dynamics between skin health and mental well-being, emphasizing the disorder’s impact on patients’ psychological and social functioning. This narrative review further investigated the consequential effects of BDD on essential aspects of dermatological treatment, including patient adherence to therapeutic regimens, overall quality of life (QOL), and the effectiveness of available treatments. In addition to presenting current therapeutic approaches, we advocate for the integration of psycho-dermatological interventions tailored to mitigate the dual burden of skin conditions and psychological distress. Future research directions proposed include longitudinal studies to assess the long-term effects of BDD on skin disease prognosis and psychosocial well-being, which aim to refine and optimize treatment modalities to contribute to a more holistic understanding of BDD within dermatological practice.

探索身体畸形障碍 (BDD) 与皮肤病的交集:叙述性综述
这篇叙事性文献综述研究了身体畸形障碍(BDD)与皮肤病之间错综复杂的关系,并简要聚焦于那些以明显皮肤不规则为特征的疾病,如寻常痤疮、银屑病和白癜风。我们的分析强调了 BDD 在皮肤病患者中的显著流行率,揭示了对皮肤瑕疵的夸大关注所产生的深刻心理影响。通过对 BDD 潜在症状的探讨,我们分析了皮肤健康与心理健康之间复杂的动态关系,强调了该疾病对患者心理和社会功能的影响。这篇叙述性综述进一步研究了 BDD 对皮肤病治疗重要方面的影响,包括患者对治疗方案的依从性、整体生活质量 (QOL) 以及现有治疗方法的有效性。除了介绍当前的治疗方法外,我们还主张整合皮肤心理干预措施,以减轻皮肤病和心理困扰的双重负担。我们提出的未来研究方向包括纵向研究,以评估 BDD 对皮肤病预后和社会心理健康的长期影响,旨在完善和优化治疗方法,从而在皮肤科实践中对 BDD 有更全面的了解。

期刊介绍: Dermatology and Therapy is an international, open access, peer-reviewed, rapid publication journal (peer review in 2 weeks, published 3–4 weeks from acceptance). The journal is dedicated to the publication of high-quality clinical (all phases), observational, real-world, and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of dermatological therapies. Studies relating to diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health and epidemiology, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also encouraged. Areas of focus include, but are not limited to all clinical aspects of dermatology, such as skin pharmacology; skin development and aging; prevention, diagnosis, and management of skin disorders and melanomas; research into dermal structures and pathology; and all areas of aesthetic dermatology, including skin maintenance, dermatological surgery, and lasers. The journal is of interest to a broad audience of pharmaceutical and healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, case reports/case series, trial protocols, and short communications. Dermatology and Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an International and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of quality research, which may be considered of insufficient interest by other journals. The journal appeals to a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world.
