Management options for psoriasis

Psoriasis is a long-term skin condition characterised by red, scaly patches that can cause discomfort, itchiness, and emotional distress. It occurs when the immune system overreacts, speeding up the life cycle of skin cells, which then accumulate on the skin's surface. While there is no cure, various management options can help control symptoms and improve quality of life. A renowned dermatologist explores some of these options.

Paediatric psoriasis: A parent’s guide

Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition where skin cells grow at an accelerated rate, leading to red, scaly patches on the skin’s surface. In children, this condition is known as paediatric psoriasis. Although psoriasis is more commonly seen in adults, children and even infants can develop it. This skin disorder is not contagious; it’s linked to immune system activity, which causes inflammation and rapid skin cell turnover. While it can be difficult to identify in children, recognising the signs and understanding the triggers can help manage the condition effectively.

Mole removal surgery for skin cancer prevention: Why early detection is key

Mole removal surgery is a crucial preventive measure in reducing the risk of skin cancer. Skin cancer, particularly malignant melanoma, can develop from abnormal changes in moles. Early detection and removal of suspicious moles provide the best chance for preventing the spread of skin cancer, improving long-term outcomes for patients.

All about benign moles, and how to tell when they're not

A mole is a textured bump, patch (macule) or nodule on the skin that is skin-coloured, darker, or differently coloured than the surrounding skin due to a cluster of melanocytes or nevus cells. Moles are exceedingly common, and can be anywhere on the body — you’d be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn’t have at least one mole somewhere. While some moles can be cancerous, the majority are benign.
