TABLE 1.

Scientific principles underpinning psychodermatology.

Scientific principles Description
Comprehensive care Psychodermatology demands a comprehensive integrated approach to address the intricate needs of patients. The interconnection of dermatological and psychological aspects of a patient's health underscores the necessity of a broad‐spectrum care model
Interdisciplinary collaboration The scientific rationale emphasizes the imperative for close collaboration between dermatologists and psychiatrists. This collaboration should not merely be a suggestion but a core element of research and clinical practices within the field of psychodermatology
Innovative solutions To address the unique challenges of psychodermatology effectively, the scientific community is urged to invest in research and development to formulate and validate innovative solutions. These solutions should be designed to optimize the patient experience, improve access to specialized care, and enhance the overall quality of life for individuals confronting complex dermatological and psychological issues
