Immunodermatology deals with skin conditions caused by the immune system, such as psoriasis, vitiligo, pemphigus, lupus and chronic hives. These conditions can be long-lasting and may affect appearance, comfort and mood.
Diagnosis may involve skin biopsy and blood tests. Treatment may include creams, tablets, light therapy such as PUVA, and medicines that calm the immune system. These medicines need regular monitoring, and the dermatologist explains possible side effects. The aim is long-term control, fewer flare-ups and better daily comfort. Patients seeking skin allergy treatment in Mumbai for immune-related problems receive ongoing follow-up.
