A person who is so preoccupied with the thoughts about minor and even imaginary flaws in his or her physique may have the condition of a chronic serious mental illness called BDD or Body Dysmorphic Disorder.

As a person with BDD tends to obsess over his body image and appearance usually for many hours within a day, he is more inclined to seek cosmetic procedures and surgeries to try to fix the problem. But after having them, he thinks that the procedures were unsuccessful even if they are. Los Angeles plastic surgeon as well as other cosmetic clinics and organizations have been concerned about how the increasing popularity of plastic surgery affects individuals with BDD, especially since the case of Jocelyn Wildenstein had been known to many. Jocelyn Wildenstein, a socialite from Switzerland and an ex-wife of billionaire Alec Wildenstein who passed away in February 2008 at age 67, had undergone numerous cosmetic surgeries to achieve the look of a cat in order to repossess the love of his husband during their marriage. Alec was unable to recognize his wife after the surgeries and was said to have even screamed at the first sight of her new look. Instead of stopping, Jocelyn turned to more surgeries to look like the cats and lions her husband love.

Getting plastic surgery can make BDD worse. As individuals with BDD are often not happy with the outcome of the procedures, they tend to focus on other parts of their face and body which they think are in need of enhancement or changes. Thus, if cosmetic surgeons will continue to serve individuals with BDD, it is not surprising that many individuals are bound to turn out looking like Jocelyn Wildenstein or any other creature in the near future.

Just like the skin on other parts of the body, the scalp also contains millions of pores, sweat glands and oil glands. When excreted oil mixes with dust, sweat and dirt collected in the hair, it can make one’s hair and scalp dirty. Some of the dirt, sweat and oil sink deep into the scalp’s pores and in hair follicles that even regular shampooing and washing of the hair cannot eliminate. Even going to the salon for hair wash and shampoo may not be effective enough to wash all the dirt away. The mixture of dirt, oil and sweat collected inside the pores and on the scalp may cause irritation of the hair follicles resulting to the occurrence of scalp acne.

Some people may not even notice that they have acne on their scalp until they experience scalp itching ending up to the discovery of the acne when they scratch the itchy part and felt pain. Many have been disappointed by too many products that promise solutions to scalp pimples and other scalp conditions but fail to deliver the expected results.
