    GlossaryHyperkeratotic Plaques

    thickened, rough skin patches due to excess keratin production

    Hyperkeratotic plaques are thickened, rough patches of skin that result from an overproduction of keratin, a protein that helps protect the skin. These plaques can appear scaly and are often associated with conditions like psoriasis or chronic eczema. For professionals, they indicate an underlying issue with skin cell turnover and may require treatments such as topical steroids or keratolytic agents to manage.
