PURPOSE: This study aimed to examine whether the visibility of dermatological conditions differed with distinct trajectories of psychopathological symptoms before and after dermatological treatment.
METHODS: In total, 162 adults aged 18-35 years participated in the study. A prospective, controlled design was employed, comparing two dermatological patient groups (Group A, n = 54: visible facial acne, and Group B, n = 54: non-visible psoriasis/eczema) with a healthy control group (Group C, n = 54) across two assessment points, using a battery of questionnaires.
RESULTS: While both dermatological patient groups exhibited elevated psychopathology compared to controls at both time points, patients with visible acne demonstrated a distinct post-treatment exacerbation of specific psychopathological dimensions (Somatization, OCD, Anxiety, and Paranoid Ideation).
CONCLUSIONS: Findings suggest that dermatological treatment alone may be insufficient to alleviate psychological distress, particularly when the skin condition is visibly located. Therefore, a combination of dermatological and psychological treatments is recommended.
