A Social Adaptation Self-Evaluation Scale (SAAS) was applied to follow-up the social adaptation of 61 patients with skin diseases, 32 males and 29 females aged between 21 and 68 years occasionally examined in the outpatient consulting room of the Clinic of Dermatovenereology at the Medical University of Varna. The results vary within the limits of slight to moderate aberrations mainly when assessing the outer appearance, interrelations, contacts and expressions in the society as well as concerning the satisfaction with the work process. The familial relationships which compensate to a certain extent the other disturbances prove to be most harmonious.
