Body Dysmorphic Disorder: a Critical Appraisal of Diagnostic, Screening, and Assessment Tools
Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a psychiatric condition characterized by profound concern about a minor or imagined defect in the appearance of individuals and increased preoccupation with the imagined/perceived defect. Individuals with BDD often undergo cosmetic intervention for the perceived imperfection but rarely experience improvement in their signs and symptoms following such treatment. It is recommended that aesthetic providers evaluate individuals face-to-face and screen for BDD with approved scales preoperatively to determine the candidate's suitability for the procedure.

Psychopharmacology in Dermatology: Five Common Disorders
Dermatologists often encounter a patient who presents with an illness that overlaps both psychiatric and dermatologic specialties. Psychodermatology patients range from straightforward (i.e., trichotillomania, onychophagia, excoriation disorder) to challenging (i.e., body dysmorphic disorder) to highly challenging (i.e., delusions of parasitosis). Many refuse to see psychiatrists. As such, the only chance that many of these patients will receive treatment is if the dermatologist is willing to prescribe psychiatric medications to them.
