Skin of Color and Psoriasis: Visual Signs & Symptoms| Doctor Explains

In this video Doctor O'Donovan explains what psoriasis looks like on black and brown skin, including demonstrations with real life photographs to help you better recognise this common skin condition. Psoriasis, a common skin condition, presents itself differently across various skin tones. On brown and black skin, its appearance can be distinct, sometimes leading to misdiagnoses. What does psoriasis look like on skin of colour? Psoriasis plaques are usually described as “pink to red.” These are characteristics of psoriasis on light skin tones. On dark skin tones, a psoriasis plaque can range from light to dark brown, purple or gray. Sometimes, skin discoloration isn’t visible on dark skin tones. Each type of psoriasis can look different based on the type and where it is on your body, but if you have a non-white skin tone, it’s unlikely that you’ll see pink or red skin discoloration as a symptom of psoriasis. Psoriasis may also leave evidence of a flare-up on darker skin tones rather than on medium to light skin tones. While areas of thickened skin will disappear, discoloration from psoriasis plaques can remain on your skin for up to a year. Discoloration isn’t permanent, and a healthcare provider can offer treatment to speed up your body’s healing process. In this video we look at real life clinical photos of psoriasis in people with skin of colour.
