PSYCHODERMATOLOGY Mind and body are closely related to one another. Mind and skin are even more intimately interconnected. There are a group of skin disorders which get triggered or exacerbated by various emotional problems. Researchers have found that certain skin conditions like psoriasis, acne, vitiligo, melasma, lichen planus, urticaria, may be triggered or exacerbated by various psychologiocal problems.
