Welcome to SkinPrive, your trusted partner in managing psoriasis and achieving skin health and comfort. Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition that affects the skin, causing red, scaly patches and discomfort. While psoriasis can be challenging to live with, our clinic offers advanced treatments, compassionate care, and personalized solutions to help you manage your symptoms effectively. In this guide, we’ll explore the characteristics of psoriasis, treatment options, and how our clinic can support you in your journey to healthier skin.

Understanding Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a complex condition characterized by the rapid overproduction of skin cells, leading to the formation of thick, red, scaly patches on the skin’s surface. These patches, known as plaques, can vary in size, shape, and severity and may appear anywhere on the body, including the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back. Psoriasis is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic, immune, and environmental factors, although the exact triggers can vary from person to person.

Common Types of Psoriasis:

  • Plaque Psoriasis: The most common form of psoriasis, characterized by raised, red plaques covered with silvery scales. These plaques can be itchy, painful, and may crack and bleed.

  • Guttate Psoriasis: Often triggered by bacterial or viral infections, guttate psoriasis appears as small, red, teardrop-shaped lesions on the skin, typically affecting the trunk, arms, legs, and scalp.

  • Inverse Psoriasis: Occurring in skin folds such as the armpits, groin, and under the breasts, inverse psoriasis presents as smooth, red patches that may be worsened by friction and sweating.

  • Pustular Psoriasis: Characterized by the formation of pus-filled blisters (pustules) surrounded by red, inflamed skin, pustular psoriasis can be localized or widespread and may be accompanied by fever and chills.

  • Erythrodermic Psoriasis: A rare but severe form of psoriasis, erythrodermic psoriasis causes widespread redness, scaling, and shedding of the skin, often accompanied by severe itching, pain, and swelling.

At SkinPrive, we offer a comprehensive approach to managing psoriasis, focusing on symptom relief, skin improvement, and quality of life. Our experienced dermatologists will assess your condition, discuss your treatment goals, and develop a personalized plan tailored to your needs.

Our treatment options include:

  • Topical Treatments: Corticosteroids, vitamin D analogs, retinoids, and calcineurin inhibitors applied directly to the skin to reduce inflammation, itching, and scaling.

  • Phototherapy: Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light, either through natural sunlight or artificial UV lamps, to slow the growth of skin cells and reduce inflammation.

  • Systemic Medications: Oral or injectable medications, including methotrexate, cyclosporine, acitretin, and biologics, to target the immune system and reduce inflammation throughout the body.

  • Excimer Laser Therapy: Targeted laser treatment to deliver high-intensity UVB light to affected areas, promoting skin healing and reducing inflammation.
