Abstract:
The cutaneous stigmata of aging may affect an individual's mental well-being, body image, and quality of life. Before proceeding with treatment, the dermatologist should take into consideration the patient's overall life situation and evaluate whether or not there is severe psychopathology and body image distortion.
