His clinical practice has been specialized in the management of psoriatic patients. Located in the city of Santiago-Chile, the purpose of the clinic is to provide high technical medical service to people suffering from psoriasis, in order to improve their quality of life through the clearing of the psoriatic lesions and the prevention of arthritis, a complication associated to psoriasis. In selected cases, the clinic applies the PUVA treatment to the patients with vitiligo, micosis fungoide and atopic dermatitis.

Psoriasis is a non-contagious, chronic skin disorder that is seen as raised, rough, reddened areas covered with scales. The rashes commonly affect the scalp, the back of the elbows and front if the knees but patches may appear on other parts of the body at the same time. Nail involvement is present in most patients with psoriasis and seen as  pits, thickening or separation of the nails from the nails bed. About 10% of patients develop pain and swelling of joints, commonly of the hands and feet and this is known as psoriatic arthritis.``

You may find it helpful to time the application so that you put it on half an hour before your usual shower or bathtime. A small amount of cream should be rubbed accurately into the psoriasis areas until the cream is absorbed. Try to avoid the surrounding normal skin. To avoid staining of clothes or chairs, you could wear an old dressing gown. After 30 minutes the cream should be washed off by showering or bathing.`` The Psoriasis Association Northampton NN2 7JG Tel. No: 01604 711129
