Psoriasis

Psoriasis is not infectious or contagious, it is a skin condition that is characterised by clearly defined, red patches of skin which become covered with dry scales. Beneath the scales the skin becomes inflamed. In normal healthy skin, skin cells replenish over the course of about 4 weeks, in the case of Psoriasis the process becomes much more rapid, where the cycle is reduced to between 3 and 6 days, producing the scaly skin and inflammation. Psoriasis occurs mainly on the knees and elbows, on the scalp and sometimes on the back but any part of the skin could be affected.

Psoriasis occurs in different forms, the most common being chronic Psoriasis or plaque form. This may sometimes change and flare up into an acute form with severe inflammation. Other forms of Psoriasis are pustular, these are rarer and they require medical attention. Psoriasis can also occur on the scalp where scales or crusts appear and sufferers experience white dandruff like flakes.

Treatment of Psoriasis

The overall aim of the treatment is to reduce inflammation. Psoriasis can often be stress related so the reduction of stress or anxiety is advised and learning to relax is important.  Emotional shocks have also been known to induce Psoriasis. Always treat acutely inflamed skin with a gentle product, as natural as possible to ease/soothe the inflammation, rather than a strong chemical based product which in itself could cause an inflammatory reaction.

Tips

With Psoriasis the primary objective is to relieve irritation and reduce inflammation.  SKLEER All in One Skin Corrective Gel contains Eucalyptus Oil a well-known anti-inflammatory that is perfect for irritated or inflamed skin.  The combination of essential oils in SKLEER: Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Caraway, Cinnamon and Cardamom work synergistically. The proprietary gel formula takes the potent essential oils deep into the skin to assist healing.  The therapeutic power of SKLEER lies in the fact that the gel takes the natural ingredients to the lower levels of the skin for enhanced penetration and effectiveness.

For irritated and inflamed skin, the oil of eucalyptus is both anti-inflammatory and a natural antiseptic, it is also a highly effective soothing agent for the skin.  Caraway oil neutralises the effects of histamine and as such can be very helpful in dissolving skin rashes.  The SKLEER All in One Skin Corrective gel forms a protective layer on the skin to help lock moisture in and hence creates a perfect environment for healing.

SKLEER contains no parabens, no harmful preservatives, no lanolin, no hydroquinone, no corticosteroids and is not tested on animals.  The all natural formula is ideal for even the most sensitive of skins, all age groups and is suitable for babies and toddlers. Thanks to the unique patent pending formulation SKLEER All in One Skin Corrective is non-greasy.
