Psoriasis Pictures – What does Psoriasis look like?
Tuesday, October 21st, 2008The common form that psoriasis takes is the “plaque”. Plaques are dull red in color and have waxy or silvery scales on top. Plaques result from thickening of the skin(epidermis and to a lesser extent dermis). This thickening in turn is due to the rapid growth of the psoriasis skin compared to the normal. The scales are due to a build-up of abnormal skin cells (which are usually shed).
Psoriasis of the palms and soles may appear different and may appear different and may take the form of sterile pustules (which have no germs or bacteria). The psoriasis pictures are some before and after pictures.

The picture labeled psoriasis_pictures_after was taken after 3 weeks of my psoriasis treatment with methotrexate, daivonex and betamethasone.
