Comparison of Perceptions of Skin Condition, Product Use and Allergen Reactivity Between People with Psoriasis and Controls in the European Dermato-Epidemiology Network (EDEN) Fragrance Study

In conclusion, people with psoriasis tend to perceive their skin as drier and more sensitive.

Understanding these aspects is crucial for tailoring treatments to improve the well-being of patients with psoriasis, which warrants further research to explore subjective perceptions of skin well-being in patients with psoriasis.PMID:38436432 | PMC:PMC10924268 | DOI:10.2340/actadv.v104.23513
