Facial dysmorphia is characterized by a person’s distorted perception of his/her face and its features. This can include feeling overly self-conscious about one’s nose size, shape, wrinkles, skin tone, hairline etc., as well as having unrealistic expectations for how one should look. It can lead to extreme levels of distress due to the inability to meet these standards and cause individuals to avoid social situations where they might be judged for their looks.
