A chronic condition that often tends to develop on the back, palms, scalp, feet, face, knees and elbows, plaque psoriasis is characterized by an almost silvery buildup of skin. These skin patches also appear red and flaky, even to the point where they crack and bleed. Causing those who suffer from the condition discomfort and embarrassment, plaque psoriasis is treatable. Helping patients manage the symptoms and control their psoriasis is what we do best!
