The Experience of Use General Air Cryotherapy for Correction of Psoriasis
Abstract
Purpose: We investigated the efficacy and safety of general air cryotherapy with addition of the moisturizing agent Xemose cream (Uriage cosmetic line) for correction of psoriasis. Xemose cream is a universal emollient thermal-water based cream for very dry skin and skin prone to atopy. It hydrates and restores the skin barrier, limits the action of irritative factors.Matereals and methods: Contemporary methods of therapy of 6 patients with psoriasis are described. We combined traditional therapy with the general air cryotherapy with addition of the moisturizing agent Xemose cream.Results: Curing the patients during 15 days lead to significant reduction of skin pathology as well as substantial reduction of the PASI.Summary: Complex treatment appeared to be more effective than usage of each of methods itself.
