Summary

This study tests whether a daily skincare routine using Cetaphil cleansers and moisturizers can improve skin symptoms and quality of life for people with mild-to-severe plaque psoriasis. Participants apply the products to one side of their body while continuing their usual prescription treatment. Researchers measure changes in affected skin area, lesion severity, and skin texture over 8 weeks.

What this could lead to

If effective, this skincare regimen could become a standard add-on to help manage psoriasis symptoms and improve skin comfort.
