Abstract

Acne it is an actual problem of the modern dermatology and psychodermatology. In patients of near 20 years old acne usually regresses, but in 10–20 % dermatosis becomes chronic.

Aim of research – study of the personal features of patients with acne.

Materials and methods. 142 patients with chronic acne took part in the research – main group (MG), 75 female persons and 67 male ones, and 70 interrogated without dermal or whatever chronic somatic pathology – the group of comparison (GC), 35 girls and 35 boys, respectively. Freiburg personal questionnaire of В (FPI-B) form was used as diagnostic instrument.

Results. Patients with acne had more intense neurosality, depression, irritability, reactive aggression, shyness, emotional lability, introversion, in somatically healthy persons were observed communicativeness, equability, openness and extraversion, р<0,05. In the structure of manifestation of personal features among interrogated from MG the part of persons with low neurosality, depression, reactive aggression was less and the one with middle level of inclination to depressive reaction and reactive aggression, low openness, introversion was more, р<0,05. In patients with acne were separated several specific personal profiles: neurotic, introverted-depressive, aggressive-labile, sensitive, compensated ones.

Conclusions. Thus, in patients with acne were revealed personal features that distinguished them from the persons without chronic dermal pathology. In patients with chronic course of acne was revealed the growth of neuroticism, psychic instability, raise of situational aggression, inclination to depressive reaction, introversion, decrease of communicativeness, raise of shyness. Destabilizing influence of personal features on the state of psychological and psychosocial adjustment indicated the necessity of elaboration of the complex program of medical-psychological help
