How I cleared Guttate Psoriasis breakout

I know how frustrating it can be trying to find something that actually helps so thought I should share that I have had pretty amazing results clearing my last guttate psoriasis treatment!!

What I did:

1. A few trips to the tanning bed, or tan outside if you’re lucky enough to live in a warm place. Obviously use a tanning bed at your own risk - I am someone who doesn’t burn easily. Try to shower and moisturize ASAP after tanning.

2. Shower at night and follow with ⁠Centella and cover pretty thick with Cetaphil moisturizer right after. I used “Madagascar centella ampoule” but I would bet any pure centella you can get would do the trick. If you want to test centella out before buying a full product you can get a sheet mask for cheap (lots of Korean skincare brands) and just rub it around on your spots. I followed with “Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion” which is a low cost and great lotion imo.

I figured this strategy out because I had some really good results using “La Roch Posay Cicaplast Baume” on my spots but that was way too expensive to use on such a large area- but I guess if you can afford it that is also a good option.

Results: In a month and a half I am basically clear, just have a tough to fix area under my breasts that gets irritated because of my bra everyday. Otherwise all have cleared. It’s the FASTEST I’ve ever cleared a guttate psoriasis breakout EVER and honestly it has been life changing for me 😭

I hope this can help someone 🫶🏼 😊 but of course remember everyone’s body is different, so please spot test in case of bad reaction first.

PS in the past I have used steroid creams and had the UVB phototherapy treatments at a fancy dermatologist. I personally saw very little progress from either of this methods but I guess it must work for some people since the doctors keep prescribing it 🤷🏼‍♀️
