چکیده

Introduction: Some evidence suggests that person who undergoes blepharoplasty may have some special personality patterns or some psychological disorders. This study was conducted to evaluate the personality pattern and psychological profile in patients undergoing upper blepharoplasty.

Methods and Materials: A prospective cross-sectional study was performed in a tertiary center between March 2016 and August 2017. Fifty individuals who were candidate for upper blepharoplasty were enrolled. Millon Clinical Multi-Axial Inventory questionnaire (MCMI-III) was used to assessment of personality pattern and psychological profile.

Results: The mean age was 40.32±5.70 years and 43 ones (86%) were females. Twenty-six participants (52%) were college-educated. The mean score for severe clinical syndromes, including thought disorder, depression, and delusional disorder, was 44.48 ± 22.55, 50.28 ± 17.81, and 29.92 ± 23.18, respectively. The mean score for schizotypal, borderline, and paranoid disorders was 27.66 ± 14.93, 36.42 ± 17.59, and 43.70 ± 17.30, respectively. Among clinical syndromes generalized anxiety had the highest score (60.46±7.59). Among clinical personality patterns histrionic had the highest score (65.78±19.78). In the clinical personality patterns examined, 5 patients (10%) exhibited an abnormal score in the melancholic category, 8 patients (16%) in the histrionic category, and 5 patients (10%) in the compulsive disorder category.

Conclusion: The frequency of clinical syndromes and abnormal personality pattern in our studied population was low. However some abnormalities such as melancholic, histrionic and compulsive patterns needs to psychological treatment. Treatment of these abnormalities may affect the demand for cosmetic procedures such as blepharoplasty.
