Buy Psoriderm Scalp Lotion Shampoo

Psoriderm Scalp Lotion Shampoo is a psoriasis treatment which helps stop itching and heals your skin. 

 

How Psoriderm Scalp Lotion Shampoo works

Psoriderm Scalp Lotion Shampoo contains 2 active ingredients: distilled coal tar and lecithin.

Coal tar has mild antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps relieve itching, slows down cell division, and stops cells from multiplying excessively.

Lecithin is a phospholipid that softens psoriasis scales and helps to enhance coal tar's absorption into the skin cells.

Thoroughly wet your hair and lather the shampoo onto it. Gently massage the product into your hair. Leave the shampoo on your scalp for a few minutes before rinsing. Repeat the process twice.

This was prescribed by Dr a few years ago for scalp psoriasis. I use it once a week as it helps to keep it under control, hair feels lovely and clean too.

Takes about 8 weeks to work fully but that's to be expected when you come off high-dose steroids. Stick with it and you can still shampoo normally and condition normally after use.

I usually use another specialist shampoo, which is currently out of stock. I have mild dry scalp psorisis but get very strong itchiness with it so a specialist shampoo is very important for me. I have found this to be just as good as the one I usually buy. Leathers up really well. Smell is of coal tar but I like it! Bottle design is good - product is easy to pour out into my hand.
