Psoriasis Treatment

Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition characterized by red, scaly patches that can appear anywhere on the body. It is caused by an accelerated skin cell production process, leading to a buildup of cells on the skin’s surface. This condition can be itchy and sometimes painful, affecting various parts of the body, including the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back. While psoriasis is not contagious, it can significantly impact a person’s quality of life and self-esteem due to its visible symptoms.

In aesthetics, psoriasis treatments aim to manage the symptoms and improve the appearance of the affected skin. Topical treatments, such as corticosteroids, vitamin D analogs, and retinoids, can help reduce inflammation and slow down skin cell production. Phototherapy, which involves exposing the skin to ultraviolet light under medical supervision, can also be effective. For more severe cases, systemic treatments, including oral medications and biologic drugs, might be prescribed to target the immune system’s underlying causes. Along with the treatment, lifestyle changes, such as stress management, a healthy diet, and regular moisturizing, can support overall skin health. Combining these treatments can help minimize psoriasis’s appearance, enhancing skin aesthetics and boosting confidence.

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease where the skin cells grow too quickly, leading to thick, red, scaly patches. This condition can affect any part of the body and varies in severity from mild to severe. At RegenOrthoSport, we offer advanced treatments for various forms of psoriasis, including scalp psoriasis, facial psoriasis, and psoriatic arthritis.
