Psoriasis Treatment

Relieve Symptoms and Restore Your Skin

Las Vegas NV

Dr. Candace Spann treats psoriasis and other skin conditions that significantly impact the daily lives of her patients. Psoriasis is an inherited skin condition where new skin cells develop at an abnormally fast rate, resulting in thick, reddened, blistered, or scaly areas of skin. Psoriasis flare-ups can occur following illness, exposure to dry or cold weather, or stressful events. There are five types of psoriasis, each presenting distinct symptoms. The most common type, plaque psoriasis, forms raised, reddish patches covered in a silver or whitish layer called scale. Less common types can cause pustules, reddish bumps, or severe rashes with fever.

Comprehensive Psoriasis Treatment

Personalized Care to Manage Your Condition

Dr. Candace Spann offers a variety of treatment options tailored to reduce the frequency and severity of psoriasis symptoms. These treatments may include:

Topical Ointments and Creams: Specialized formulations to soothe the skin and reduce inflammation.
Medications and Injections: Oral or injectable treatments to control immune responses and minimize flare-ups.
Anti-inflammatory Corticosteroids: To target inflammation and help calm the skin during flare-ups.

Since every patient’s skin is unique, treatment plans are customized to meet individual needs. Stress management may also be part of the treatment program, as psoriasis can worsen during periods of high stress.

What to Expect During Your Psoriasis Consultation

When you come in for your initial consultation, our dermatologists will conduct a thorough evaluation of your skin, including a detailed medical history to understand any triggers, family history, and past treatments. Based on your condition, we will recommend a personalized treatment plan and discuss the potential benefits and side effects of each option.

During the consultation, we will also address any questions or concerns you may have, and together we will determine the best course of action to manage your psoriasis effectively. We believe in a collaborative approach, ensuring you feel informed, empowered, and confident in your treatment decisions.

PLAN YOUR TREATMENT

Managing Psoriasis

Recovery Time:
Psoriasis is a chronic condition, so complete recovery is not typically possible. Flare-ups can improve or go into remission with treatment, but management is ongoing.

Average Treatment Time:
The treatment time may vary depending on the dermatologist's recommendations.

Follow-up:
Regular follow-up is necessary, usually every 1–3 months. The frequency of visits depends on treatment response and potential side effects. Since psoriasis is a chronic condition, lifelong management and monitoring are often required.

Am I a good candidate for Psoriasis Treatment?

If you're experiencing persistent, moderate to severe psoriasis—characterized by extensive, red, inflamed patches of skin or frequent flare-ups—treatment is often necessary to control symptoms and improve quality of life. Mild cases of psoriasis may only require topical treatments like corticosteroids or moisturizers, while more severe forms may benefit from phototherapy or systemic medications, including biologics.

In addition to the severity of your psoriasis, your overall health plays a key role in determining your suitability for certain treatments. For instance, systemic treatments and biologics may require monitoring for side effects, so having a history of certain health conditions may affect your treatment options.
