Based on psychopathological characteristics, develop a clinical differentiation of the disorder highlighting the types of TTM. To establish patterns of skin status in various psychopathological types of TTM. To achieve our goals and objectives, we analyzed the study included patients who met the criteria for trichotillomania ICD-10 and DSM-5 (20 cases; 3 men, 17 women, including 7 children under the age of 18 years; average age – 26.6±13.2 years). Patients were examined using an interdisciplinary approach by a psychiatrist and a dermatologist ( trichologist ). Comprehensive clinical assessment of patients included assessment of dermatological and mental status. As a result, we came to the conclusion that no patterns of skin status have been established in dissociative TTM, which may be due to the small number of observations (2 cases). Discussion The study results demonstrate the clinical heterogeneity of TTM. Key words: Trichotillomania, treatment, analysis, psychopathological and dermatological, TTM, trichologist, Discussion, auto-extraction, psychopathological.
