Resumo: | Introduction: Acne has a significant impact on patient’s self-esteem and quality of life. Several studies have shown psychological changes including anxiety, social inhibition, depression and suicidal ideation in acne patients. Since the approval of isotretinoin for the treatment of refractory or severe acne, there have been reports of cases and with interest sparked by the media for an association between isotretinoin and depression/suicidal ideation. Material and Methods: We reviewed the literature in order to assess the impact of acne on the daily lives of patients and the relationship of isotretinoin with depression or suicidal ideation. Results: The patient perception of the severity of acne differs from the medical evaluation, which is reflected in psychological and social repercussions, sometimes difficult to predict. Of the review carried we did not find causal relationship between isotretinoin therapy and depressive states or suicidal behavior. In many cases, the treatment improves the symptoms. Conclusions: The impact of acne, far beyond the impact of skin, requires the recognition of relevant psychological signs in a routine consultation, to establish appro- priate treatment strategies, individualized for each case.KEYWORDS – Acne vulgaris/psychology; Depression; Isotretinoin; Quality of life. |

THE PSYCHOSOCIAL IMPACT OF ACNEIMPACTO PSICOSSOCIAL DA ACNEIntroduction: Acne has a significant impact on patient’s self-esteem and quality of life. Several studies have shown psychological changes including anxiety, social inhibition, depression and suicidal ideation in acne patients. Since the approval of isotretinoin for the treatment of refractory or severe acne, there have been reports of cases and with interest sparked by the media for an association between isotretinoin and depression/suicidal ideation. Material and Methods: We reviewed the literature in order to assess the impact of acne on the daily lives of patients and the relationship of isotretinoin with depression or suicidal ideation. Results: The patient perception of the severity of acne differs from the medical evaluation, which is reflected in psychological and social repercussions, sometimes difficult to predict. Of the review carried we did not find causal relationship between isotretinoin therapy and depressive states or suicidal behavior. In many cases, the treatment improves the symptoms. Conclusions: The impact of acne, far beyond the impact of skin, requires the recognition of relevant psychological signs in a routine consultation, to establish appro- priate treatment strategies, individualized for each case.KEYWORDS – Acne vulgaris/psychology; Depression; Isotretinoin; Quality of life.Introdução: A acne tem impacto significativo na auto-estima e qualidade de vida dos doentes. Diversos estudos demonstram alterações psicológicas incluindo ansiedade, inibição social, depressão e ideação suicida nos doentes com acne. Desde a aprovação da isotretinoína para o tratamento da acne grave ou refractária, têm surgido relatos de casos e com interesse suscitado pelos media para uma associação entre o tratamento com isotretinoína e a depressão/ ideação suicida. Material e Métodos: Revimos a literatura disponível com o intuito de avaliar o impacto da acne no quotidiano dos doentes e a relação do tratamento com isotretinoína e depressão ou ideação suicida. Resultados: A percepção da gravidade da acne pelo doente difere da avaliação médica, o que se traduz em repercussões psicológicas e sociais, por vezes difíceis de prever. Da revisão efectuada, não foi encontrada relação causal entre o tratamento com isotretinoína e estados depressivos ou comportamentos suicidas. Em muitos casos, o tratamento melhora estes sintomas. Conclusões: O impacto da acne, muito além do impacto cutâneo, impõe que o reconhecimento dos sinais psicológicos pertinentes seja uma rotina na consulta, de modo a estabelecer estratégias de tratamento adequadas, individualizadas caso a caso.PALAVRAS-CHAVE – Acne; Impacto psicossocial; Depressão; Isotretinoína.Sociedade Portuguesa de Dermatologia e Venereologia2013-01-13T00:00:00Zjournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.29021/spdv.70.3.4oai:ojs.revista.spdv.com.pt:article/4Journal of the Portuguese Society of Dermatology and Venereology; Vol 70 No 3 (2012): Julho - Setembro; 291Revista da Sociedade Portuguesa de Dermatologia e Venereologia; v. 70 n. 3 (2012): Julho - Setembro; 2912182-24092182-2395reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revista.spdv.com.pt/index.php/spdv/article/view/4https://doi.org/10.29021/spdv.70.3.4https://revista.spdv.com.pt/index.php/spdv/article/view/4/4Teixeira, VeraVieira, RicardoFigueiredo, Américoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-10-06T12:34:34Zoai:ojs.revista.spdv.com.pt:article/4Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:10:36.684523Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
