UVB Laser Treatment Of Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease that causes skin cells to grow too quickly, resulting in thick, white, silvery or red patches of skin.
Usually, skin cells grow gradually and flake off about every four weeks. New skin cells grow to replace the outer layers of the skin as they shed. However, in psoriasis, new skin cells grow and move rapidly to the skin's surface in days rather than weeks. Thus, they build up thick patches known as "psoriatic plaques". These patches or plaques range in size from small to large. They frequently appear on knees, elbows, head (scalp), hands, feet or lower back.
There are different types of psoriasis in terms of how these psoriatic affections look on the diseased skin on various parts of the body.

Why Psoriasis Can Be A Problem?
Having psoriasis can be embarrassing, especially when it concerns the aesthetic aspect of the skin and also when it starts itching. People with psoriasis cannot show their bodies in places like beaches, swimming pools, etc., where the psoriatic patches are visible to others.
