New Psoriasis At-Home Treatment: Why You Should Stick with Natural Skin Care Instead

 psoriasis light therapy

Luma Therapeutics, based outside of San Francisco, CA, is releasing its new illuvinate system for treatment of plaque psoriasis, an irritating skin condition that has been linked to genetics and the immune system. Should you be trying this for your plaque psoriasis or is natural the correct route?

Psoriasis Treatments

This device from Luma Therapeutics delivers ultraviolet light, within a narrow spectrum, to the skin using a powerful-stick on LED array, as well as humidification to soothe the area. LED light treatments have become common in treatment for psoriasis in recent years, with celebrities like Kim Kardashian-West crediting them to the reduction of their skin condition.

Patients who are prescribed the system, either by their dermatologist or through Luma’s telemedicine partner, are expected to use the device once a day on their inflamed problem spots. The system works to limit inflammation, rebuild healthy cellular structure, and hydrate the skin so it’s nice and healthy.

“Psoriasis is a chronic condition for which there is no cure, and there is a need for better treatment options. Most available treatments require ongoing compliance in order to achieve optimal results, and many patients are hesitant to consistently use medications, which may have long-term side effects,” in a released statement said Dr. Jeffrey Sugarman, M.D., Ph.D., of Redwood Family Dermatology in Santa Rosa, Calif., and UCSF Health. “As a result, patients become discouraged and stop seeking treatment from a dermatologist. I believe that the illuvinate system will be a great option for many patients.”

The product is a “redesign” of a century-old Goeckerman Regimen, which is only available in specialized centers and requires a good deal of commitment from patients. The FDA-cleared illuvinate system can be used at home and doesn’t require any drugs, something a lot of patients with plaque psoriasis tend to stay away from.

As from the quote above, it is true that more treatment options are absolutely needed. However, LED light treatments are still new and the results are not always consistent with different people. Diet and reducing stress continue to be important in lessening the severity of psoriasis, while more and more prescription drugs are being released to “treat” psoriasis.

However, the best way to treat psoriasis is the simplest of all: the natural way!

Wild Naturals Psoriasis Skin Care Line 

Celebrities have access and the funds to match the level of care, treatment, and products they can use to help their psoriasis. Most people suffering from the skin condition cannot afford such luxury and are prescribed by dermatologists a steroid cream or recommendations for products like moisturizing lotion with petroleum or mineral oil. This has been the standard solution for psoriasis and eczema sufferers for decades.

However, with more and more attention being put on natural skincare and the beauty industry highlighting this type heavily, the true results of chemically filled skin products are finally being brought out. Chemicals and thickeners added to creams stay on top of the epidermis and don’t penetrate to where the moisture is needed. It also can have adverse effects and dry the skin out, rather than help lubricate it.

Wild Naturals saw the lack of natural skincare and released a whole line of eczema and psoriasis products. No harsh chemicals, preservatives, fragrances (which can dry out the skin), no mineral oil or petroleum are included in Wild Naturals products. Organic aloe vera is the first ingredient, not water like most every other skin care product. Add rich beneficial ingredients like manuka honey, shea butter, coconut oil and more, and Wild Naturals pH balanced skincare lines can greatly aid in the relief and reduction of your psoriasis.
