What is Psoriasis?
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition that affects the skin, causing red, inflamed patches covered with silvery scales. These patches can appear anywhere on the body, but are commonly found on the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back. Psoriasis is a non-contagious condition, and its severity and frequency of flare-ups can vary from person to person.
Our Approach:
At Lifero Skin and Hair Clinic, we take a comprehensive and patient-centered approach to psoriasis treatment. Our goal is to help you effectively manage your symptoms, minimize flare-ups, and improve your overall quality of life.

CUSTOMIZED TREATMENT OPTIONS:
Topical Treatments:
We may prescribe topical medications, such as corticosteroids, vitamin D analogues, coal tar preparations, or retinoids. These treatments are applied directly to the affected areas to reduce inflammation, control scaling, and promote skin healing.
Phototherapy:
Our clinic is equipped with specialized phototherapy units that emit controlled ultraviolet (UV) light. Phototherapy is a safe and effective treatment option for psoriasis that helps to slow down excessive skin cell growth and reduce inflammation.
Systemic Medications:
In more severe cases or when topical treatments and phototherapy are not sufficient, our dermatologists may prescribe oral or injectable medications. These systemic medications work by suppressing the overactive immune response associated with psoriasis.
Biologic Therapies:
Nummular dermatitis appears as circular or coin-shaped patches of irritated skin that can be itchy or scaly. It is more common in drier climates and during the winter months.
