Dr. Paula Quirino is a member of the Portuguese Psoriasis Group of the Portuguese Society of Dermatology and Venereology. Dr. Paula has many years of experience in treating severe forms of psoriasis and has been certified by the DGS (General Directorate of Health) (885) for 15 years for the prescription of biological medicines.

There are several types of psoriasis: vulgar, guttate, palmoplantar, inverse, nail and arthropathic.

It is currently considered a multisystem disease and not exclusively cutaneous.

Patients with psoriasis more often have high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, kidney disease, depression, dyslipidemia (increased cholesterol and/or triglycerides), a tendency to smoke more and drink more alcohol. This metabolic syndrome requires general control of the disease, which should not be limited to the use of “ointments”.

Adapting the currently available medication to the extent of the patient's lesions allows psoriasis to be 100% controlled for years.
