Abstract :The clinical importance of skin picking disorder (SPD) in the elderly is quite high, this importance stems from physical health complications, psychological effects, social isolation, treatment difficulties, and the need for specialized treatment strategies. Effective management of this disorder requires a multidisciplinary approach and age-specific treatment strategies. Such an approach could significantly improve the overall health and quality of life of older individuals. In this study, a 69-year-old male patient who applied to the psychiatry outpatient clinic with SPD complaints was discussed in the light of literature information.
