"The role of a cosmetologist in the education of people with psoriasis"
Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory, and non-contagious skin condition that extends beyond physical symptoms, significantly impacting the quality of life and daily functioning of those affected. The complex nature of the condition, its unpredictable course, and the risk of social stigma contribute to a high demand for reliable information.
This study aimed to analyse the most important information needs of people with psoriasis and to define the role of the cosmetologist in educational support and in addressing the psychosocial consequences of the condition.
The limited time available for dermatological consultations means that the role of other specialists, including cosmetologists, is growing. An important element of comprehensive cosmetological care is educating clients on the importance of daily self-care, with particular emphasis on proper care of the skin barrier, diet, and lifestyle.
