Phase of regression. This stage completes the process of inflammation with a significant reduction in flaking, aequandi the central part of the psoriatic elements with their further resolution (photo). psoriatic elements can form various shapes (rings, trapeze, arches, etc.) and are classified as "geographic psoriasis".

 

There is another option regressus stage of the disease, when the permit begins with the peripheral part of the papules, is not образовывая scar tissue, and in the absence of atrophic processes. In that place of the body where they have been observed papules may cause hyperpigmentation. It is necessary to take into account that this division of the disease variants is conditioned. The most commonly regressus phase is defined by the method of observation симптоматикой of the patient.

Symptoms of psoriasis depending on its shape

Currently, there are many psoriatic forms, which differ from each other in external characters, and the severity of the symptomatology.
