Abstract
Introduction
Relation of psychological issues and aesthetic surgery has been well established in the literature. The conflict persists as to whether patients possess psychological stability or psychiatric disorders[1]. The psychological profile of a person admitted for aesthetic surgery could affect the outcome adversely such as delayed return to work, poor patient compliance, dissatisfaction with the surgical outcome and quality of life[2]. It is necessary for plastic surgeons to give attention to the psychological status of the patient because improvement in surgical success could be achieved if the patient understand himself well in the pre-operative and post operative period[3] for example – when people are affected by a severe trauma, such as burns, they arouse in other a natural desire to help them. Traditionally, physicians have tended to concentrate on the body and on patients’ physical suffering, neglecting the care of their psychic disturbances, which are often as severe and invalidating as the physical sequelae-indeed they may ultimately be even be more severe -leaving this aspect of care in the hands of certain highly meritorious but not necessarily professional figures who are always present in hospital wards[4]. In recent years, health psychologists have paid increasing attention to psychological adjustment associated with percei-ved abnormalities of appearance (eg., patients with burns, cleft lip/palate, vitiligo)[5]. Research indicates that having a disfigured appearance is likely to elicit avoidant and socially awkward behaviour in others. Individuals are prone to suffer problems including, depression, anxiety, shame and interpersonal difficulties[6]. “Normal people don’t get burned” is a widely used saying in the English speaking burn community implying that people who are afflicted by burn injury always have similar underlying social factors or backgrounds. It is clear that the risk of being burned is considerably higher in some individuals. Present study is conducted scientifically & systemically using the DSM-IV TR (Diagnostic & statistical manual of mental disorder of American Psychiatric Association 2000) for studying the prevalence of psychiatric disorder in study as well as in control group.
