Abstract
Body dysmorphic disorder occurs in 1% of the general population, rising to 6 to 16 times higher in patients presenting to plastic surgery clinics. This article discusses ways to identify patients who have body dysmorphic disorder and options for treating these patients, whether or not to perform cosmetic surgery, and when to refer for psychologic or psychiatric counseling.Entities:
