Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin condition that accelerates the life cycle of skin cells, causing them to build up rapidly on the skin’s surface. This build-up forms scales and red patches that can be itchy and sometimes painful. At Skinessence Aesthetics, Pune, we offer personalized and effective treatments to manage psoriasis, improve skin health, and enhance your quality of life.
Psoriasis can affect anyone and typically presents as red, scaly patches that can appear anywhere on the body, including the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back. The severity and extent vary from person to person, making personalized care essential.
