When psoriasis does not respond to the light treatments, some patients must resort to powerful internal drugs exposing them to possible drug-related side effects. On the first visit, the dermatologist will perform a test to determine the optimum dosage level for the individual s skin. The day following the test, the patient returns to begin treatments. Depending on the size of the lesion, this takes just a few minutes. Many people see results within one or two treatments.
Most patients feel no pain or discomfort during the treatments and no anesthesia is necessary.
It also appears that patients will need less future treatments per year to remain symptom free. Only a few leading physicians are equipped to provide this cutting-edge treatment for psoriasis.
