Abstract

We report the cumulative clinical experience and financial implications of treating severe scalp psoriasis in an outpatient phototherapy center by means of an automated scalp debridement unit. Benefits of this approach included increased patient and staff satisfaction, enhanced response of recalcitrant scalp psoriasis, and detection of scalp dermatoses mimicking psoriasis.
