AI Article Synopsis

  • Understanding the psychology of patients is crucial for cosmetologists to ensure successful aesthetic procedures.
  • Being aware of certain psychiatric conditions can help in deciding whether to proceed with a treatment or not, preventing unnecessary procedures.
  • Using a body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) screening questionnaire as a standard practice can help identify patients who may not be suitable for aesthetic interventions due to psychological instability.

Article Abstract

The psychology behind an aesthetic procedure needs to be understood and assessed by the attending cosmetologist for the satisfactory outcome of the procedure. Being alert about certain psychiatric conditions can help in deferring certain procedures, which prevent us from correcting something that is actually not required and will protect us from future trouble. The incorporation of the user-friendly body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) screening questionnaire in preaesthetic procedure workup as a routine can help in excluding psychologically unstable patients, who can be a contraindication for conducting the procedure per se.

Syrian hamsters were reared from postnatal days 21-43 in three conditions: peer isolation, peer isolation with daily social play sessions (dyadic play), or group-housed with littermates.

Purpose: Mental health conditions after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) are common and can complicate injury outcomes, but are under-treated. According to the Common Sense Model of Self-Regulation, the way patients perceive their health conditions can influence the way they manage them, including if, when, and how they seek treatment. This study explored how individuals perceive persistent symptoms after mTBI, in order to develop a grounded theory about what motivates and demotivates them to seek mental health treatment after their injury.
