Hi Martijn.
Sorry to hear about your plight. Its a very familiar story to me,
I used to suffer with severe scalp Psoriasis, it also spread to my forehead and either side of my nose. I used to put on steroid creams although you are not supposed to, to control it, and before a trip to the barbers for a haircut I would start to prepare days before by diluting betnovate with Vaseline to soften the scales on my scalp. I found Bio oil was quite good at stopping it looking so fierce. I am sure it does the same job as your Coconut oil.
As you say Facial Psoriasis is not good for ones self confidence. I also had my body arms and legs smothered with it. ( You dont say if you have it anywhere else)
I am now on Fumaderm tablets 4 a day and my scalp and face and everything else stays clear.
I only recently found this forum and it is nice to know you are not alone out there
Best wishes Jim
