ABOUT LASER PSORIASIS TREATMENT Procedure

Psoriasis is characterized by light-colored, flaky, red, or elevated areas of the skin. These areas can be itchy, inflamed, scaly, or even crusted. This bothersome skin condition develops when cells in the skin expand too quickly, creating a thick plaque that ranges in size and often occurs on the elbows, hands, feet, knees, head, or back.

LASER PSORIASIS TREATMENT FAQ

What causes psoriasis?

Psoriasis symptoms are believed to emerge when the immune system mistakenly attacks normal skin cells. For most adults who are predisposed to experience psoriasis, this may not be a frequent problem. However, when the body is affected by sickness or infection, a person’s heightened immune system activity may cause an episode of psoriasis to flare up.

What does psoriasis look like?

Common indications of psoriasis include pink or red spots of raised, thickened, flaking skin tissue. These impacted areas are frequently noticed on the scalp, elbows, and knees, but they might develop almost any place on a patient’s skin. You can reach out to our Orland Park, IL location to have skin concerns evaluated and diagnosed by Laura Biris.

What happens when psoriasis isn’t treated?

While slight cases of psoriasis may not produce long-term negative outcomes, moderate to advanced cases of the condition could result in psoriatic arthritis if you delay treatment. When treatment is not received, this form of arthritis could cause chronic pain, disability, and permanent joint disfigurement.
