What’s it called if you are ugly?

I would love to find some help about how to overcome being self conscious of my looks. I thought I finally found what my problem is when I read about BDD but I then I read that BDD is about imagined ugliness and imagined flaws. Does anyone know what it is called if you are self conscious of your looks and a real flaw such as a big nose?
Why is there no literature, books or articles about this? Being self conscious of a real flaw such as a big nose, being bald, big ears, being fat, having acne, crooked teeth, a birthmark, etc is all real and effects I bet millions of people. There must be a name for it?

Hello, and welcome.

What’s it called if you are ugly?

Ugly, I imagine?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Surely, the converse must be true as well, ugliness is in the eye of the beholder, also. So it's subjective. And a lot of people are going to be harsh with themselves, extra-aware, more concerned than the outside observer. One person's big nose, may be an outside observer's interesting nose. They may think it strong, striking, unique.

agree that the term is ‘ugly’. But I am referring to the phobia or fear name. You have social anxiety which is a huge umbrella covering so many different fears from people fearing social interaction as they are socially awkward, to people fear being looked at because they are self conscious of their appearance to people who fear leaving the house, etc.
I went on a social anxiety forum and they were all people who said they have no communication skills, they never know what to say, they hate having conversations, they find it hard to make friends. I don’t relate to that, I have confidence in this.
Scopophobia is a fear of being looked at but doesn’t necessarily relate to fear of being seen as ugly, I see people who relate to this fear making mistakes or doing something silly or wrong. They don’t like attention on them but most often it’s not fearing being seen or judged as ugly.
BDD is about imagined ugliness and imagined flaws. I know it’s real, I know someone who fits this criteria 100%. But there is no literature to help people who are self conscious of their looks if they are ugly.
I agree with what you say that looks and flaws are subjective but thinking that doesn’t ease the deep rooted fears we have which are triggered sub consciously.
I realise that I basically need to be ok with being ugly or being seen as ugly and not fear it or be hurt by it and to let it impact on my self worth and self esteem. But that is really hard when you have been so hurt by it and have been made to feel inadequate and not good enough for it. Surely there must be some literature and help for people who are self conscious of a real flaw? I know I’m not the only one self conscious of a real flaw.
Can anyone relate and point me in the right direction to find help for such a fear?

Well, I would imagine therapy is what's needed, to help you to not obsess over your looks, be they as 'bad' (something I still think is highly subjective) or not as you say.
