Psychodermatology

Our skin is the mirror of our soul and body.
 
A lot of skin diseases get triggered or exaggerated from emotional and physical stress as our skin is connected with our central nervous system. 
 
Vice versa psychical conditions like psychogen pruritus (itch), acne excoriee, dermatitis artefacta, trichotillomania (pulling off the hair) and body dysmorphic disorders may be the first manifested symptoms of psychological conditions which need further evaluation from a mental health specialist. 
 
Your dermatologist will guide you accordingly to the condition.
