Facial Skincare and Scalp Treatment

Hi there, would love some recommendations for facial skincare and scalp. My skin is blemish prone but also gets small psoriasis patches- so it is hard to know whether to use blemish control treatments or not as this may aggravate the psoriasis? Do you think the blemishes are anything to do with my psoriasis? Same for the scalp, I have had some luck with Neutrogena T-Gel, but would love to hear any other recommendations.

Re: Facial Skincare and Scalp Treatment

Thank you for your question. Try Daktacort cream twice daily for face and ask your GP or dermatologist to prescribe you Etrivex shampoo. Also try Cetaphil moisturiser for face.

I hope this is helpful.
With Best Wishes,
