This study examined appearance-related distress in patients with acne. One hundred and thirty-two people attending a specialist acne clinic completed questionnaires including the Derriford Appearance Scale and three self-rated acne scales covering more (facial) and less visible (chest, back) acne sites.

Being fat was related to weakness of will and lack of control by all age groups, and discourses of blame were used to describe those who w…
