These tiny blood vessels directly contribute to the creation of psoriasis lesions. Aerolase uniquely gives those suffering with psoriasis a safe, powerful, and gentle treatment for all ages and all skin types. With no downtime and minimal risk of overheating, bruising, or side effects like pigmentation, the Aerolase treatment is a cutting-edge treatment option. Patients have reported significant improvement in their psoriasis symptoms after just one treatment.
THE BENEFITS OF AEROLASE LASER TREATMENTS FOR PSORIASIS
Clear the plaques of a psoriasis flare up quickly, in short, ten-minute treatments just once a week. Many patients experience 25%+ clearance of plaques after only their second treatment. Overall psoriasis symptoms are dramatically better after five treatments.
