    involves managing symptoms of a chronic autoimmune skin condition

    Psoriasis Treatment, also known as Psoriasis Therapy or Psoriasis Management, involves various strategies to manage and alleviate the symptoms of psoriasis, a chronic autoimmune condition that causes rapid skin cell turnover, leading to red, scaly patches on the skin. Treatments can include topical medications like corticosteroids, phototherapy (light therapy), systemic medications such as biologics that target specific parts of the immune system, and lifestyle changes to reduce triggers and improve skin health.
