Treatment options differ depending on the severity of the disease. In the case of mild to moderate psoriasis, topical treatment, which inhibits inflammation and supports skin regeneration, may be adequate.
Severe forms of psoriasis usually require systemic treatments, with e.g. biological agents. Topical treatments with suitable creams or ointments should be used to complement these therapies.
Another important part of treatment is reducing or avoiding known trigger factors. To effectively reduce the intensity, length and frequency of psoriasis flare-ups, thorough and regular replenishing skin care (basic care) is also essential.
The best treatment of psoriasis should be discussed with a doctor or pharmacist.
