Psoriasis Treatment
Psoriasis is a common skin disease affecting 1 in 50 people, it occurs equally in men and women and may come and go throughout life. It does not only affect the skin, but also the nails and the joints. Patients with psoriasis are at increased risk of having heart problems, metabolic syndrome, depression, cancer, and other diseases. During my Ph.D., I spent 4 years investigating the pathogenesis of this disease which still remains unclear and I have contributed to new potential treatment options. Although it is a long-term condition, there are many treatments available to keep psoriasis under good control and ease your life by milder the symptoms. Based on the severity of psoriasis and each patient’s needs, I personalize every treatment from topicals to systemic medication or injections.
