Psoriasis Treatment in Sellersville & Bucks County
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition that speeds up skin cell turnover, leading to thick, scaly plaques that can itch, crack, and flare unpredictably. It’s not just a skin issue — it can also affect the joints and your overall quality of life. At Alpha Dermatology, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Daniel I. Shrager and our team accurately diagnose your type of psoriasis and build a treatment plan that clears the plaques and keeps them from coming back. We see patients at our Sellersville and New Hope offices, serving families across Bucks County and Montgomery County.
Symptoms We Treat
Psoriasis can look different depending on the type and where it appears. We treat the full range, including: raised, red plaques covered with silvery-white scale (plaque psoriasis); flaking or scaling on the scalp; pitted, thickened, or separating nails; small drop-shaped spots (guttate psoriasis); psoriasis in skin folds (inverse psoriasis); and itching, burning, or soreness around affected areas. If you also have joint pain or stiffness, we’ll evaluate for psoriatic arthritis. If thick, scaly patches keep returning, it’s worth getting an accurate diagnosis.
How We Treat Psoriasis
There’s no single cure for psoriasis, so we match treatment to your type, severity, and how it affects your daily life. Depending on your case, your plan may include prescription topical creams and ointments to reduce scaling and inflammation, medicated treatments for scalp and nail involvement, phototherapy (light treatment), and — for moderate to severe psoriasis that hasn’t responded to topicals — advanced biologic and systemic medications that target the immune drivers of the disease. As a physician-led practice, we focus on long-term clearance and comfort, not just temporary relief.
Why Choose Alpha Dermatology
Alpha Dermatology is an independent, physician-owned practice — not a corporate chain. That means you see a dermatologist who knows your name and your history, takes time to understand how psoriasis affects you, and stays with your care over the long term. We treat both children and adults, accept most major insurance, and offer same-week appointments at two convenient Bucks County locations.
