Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a common, chronic skin condition that can lead to lasting damage and potential disfigurement. Caused by a disorder in the body’s autoimmune system, psoriasis typically causes the skin to turn red and scaly, resulting in discomfort and irritation. While there is no cure for the underlying disorder, there are effective treatments for the skin itself. If your Dermatology Consultants provider makes a psoriasis diagnosis, he or she will recommend a course of treatment that may involve topical medications, systemic medications, phototherapy and lasers like XTRAC.
