Hi,

Thanks for submitting your question!

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition that causes the rapid buildup of skin cells. This buildup causes elevated itchy plaques of raised red skin covered with thick silvery scales. Sometimes, these rashes will crack and bleed

Psoriasis is usually found on the elbows, knees, and scalp but can often affect the legs, trunk, and nails.Treatment aims to remove scales and stop skin cells from growing so quickly. Topical ointments, light therapy and medication can offer relief.

If you are looking for an Ego product to help you with psoriasis we have several options.

Our EgoPsoryl TA is a soothing corticosteroid-free gel, formulated to help control stable, moderate psoriasis and persistent dermatitis. It’s recommended to clean the area with Pinetarsol before applying.

The Pinetarsol range has been formulated with pine tar to reduce redness and relieve itching. If the skin is dry, red and itchy then this is the range to use.

The QV range has been specially developed for dry, itchy and sensitive skin where redness is not present.

With dry skin conditions, including psoriasis it is important to avoid soap at all times as this can be irritating and drying for the skin. Our products are soap-free and are designed to help maintain the skin’s natural acid protection instead of removing it as soap can.

If your skin does not respond to these measures please consultant your GP or Dermatologist.

Kind Regards,
Ego Skinexpert
