Evidence based treatment for excoriation (skin picking) includes the Comprehensive Model for Behavioral Treatment (ComB). Ever wonder why you can't stop picking? The reasons behind skin picking can be very complex. ComB aims to identify the functions of skin picking and applying interventions to match.
Skin picking is a type of body focused repetitive behavior. It is characterized by recurrent skin picking, resulting in skin lesions, and unsuccessful repeated attempts to decrease or stop skin picking.
Skin picking can happen in or out of conscious awareness. Skin picking can lead to feelings of shame, depression, anxiety, and isolation. Individuals who pick may feel the need to cover up and avoid situations in which their skin picking is visible to others.
