Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that causes red, scaly patches to appear on the skin. It occurs when the skin’s immune system becomes overactive, speeding up skin cell turnover. While there is no cure, psoriasis can be effectively managed with medical treatments, lifestyle adjustments, and long-term care.At Euphie, our doctors provide personalised care plans to help manage symptoms, reduce flare-ups, and improve skin comfort.
