PSORIASIS.

Psoriasis is a chronic systemic inflammatory skin disease that causes skin cells to multiply up to 10 times faster than normal.


Psoriasis affects men and women equally and begins at any age, but it is most common between the ages of 15 and 35 years, and again between 50 and 60 years.(3)


EMOLLIENT THERAPY.

Although there are many effective psoriasis treatments in improving the appearance of the skin disease, none of them cures the condition for good.

Topical treatments aim to reduce inflammation and scales, slow the growth of skin cells, and remove plaques.

Keratolytic creams and ointments applied directly to the skin can be helpful for reducing itching and skin thickening, promoting exfoliation and improving skin hydration.(4)
