Psoriasis And Thin Veiny Skin On Face

by Scott
(Nottingham , UK)

I have two long standing issues that I was hoping you could help me with. The first is the moderate coverage of psoriasis I have on my body that I have suffered with for nearly a decade now. I have scalp psoriasis, as well as several plaques on my legs and back and some mild inflammation on my lips. Over the last few months with the use of a UVB lamp on just the affected areas combined with an increased intake in selected vitamins I have managed to reduce the thickness of the plaques but the redness never disappears. I was wondering what you could recommend to take the inflammation out of the skin.

My second query is in respect of the side effects from having quite thin skin on my face. Since childhood I have had severe dark circles under both eyes. The skin in this area is very discolored, purple almost pink in color. Couple with this, my cheeks seem to become flushed very easily, perhaps a case of mild rosacea. Basically I wondered what you could suggest that could stimulate a slight thickening of the skin in the area without triggering an outbreak of psoriasis. I am wary of products that stimulate skin cell production as psoriasis is obviously a condition that is centered around accelerated skin cell growth.

Apologies for the avalanche of text! I hope to hear from you soon.
