Psoriderm Cream & Lotions

Psoriderm is a clinically recognised coal tar skincare brand formulated for people managing psoriasis, seborrhoeic dermatitis and persistent dry, flaky or itchy skin on the scalp and body. Known for its traditional yet effective dermatological approach, Psoriderm products help reduce scaling, calm irritation and support the natural shedding process of the skin. On Welzo, our Psoriderm collection is curated for users seeking targeted relief, offering a dependable alternative when standard cosmetic shampoos or moisturisers are not enough.

Brand Background & Origin

Psoriderm is based on long-established dermatology principles where coal tar has been used for decades to manage inflammatory skin disorders. Coal tar formulations help regulate skin cell turnover, soften plaques and reduce itching, making them useful for mild to moderate psoriasis and flaky scalp conditions. The brand has been trusted in pharmacies and clinical settings for many years, giving users confidence in its consistency and predictable results.

How Psoriderm Works

Coal tar is the active component behind Psoriderm’s effectiveness. It works by slowing the rapid growth of skin cells associated with psoriasis, reducing scaling and supporting a smoother surface. It also helps soften crusting on the scalp, making it easier for therapeutic ingredients to reach the skin. This makes Psoriderm particularly helpful for those who struggle with stubborn flakes, redness or irritation that do not improve with standard shampoos.

Who Psoriderm Is Suitable For

• Mild to moderate psoriasis affecting the scalp or body
• Seborrhoeic dermatitis and persistent dandruff
• Dry, flaky or itchy scalp conditions
• Users who have tried cosmetic shampoos without improvement
• Individuals wanting a non-steroidal dermatology option
