Does Psoriasis occur on the face?

[Fred]

Yes I'm with Matari. You can get it on the face but it's not usually as bad as other areas. My thinking is it's because our face is always exposed to the elements, so if you were to walk around naked 24/7 you could be clear.

Having said that I used to get psoriasis on my cheeks and forehead when I first got it, and it's very annoying as the face is the first thing people notice and you can see their eyes staring at it.

I would say it's not as common as other areas, but when it is there it looks and feels worse because you are concious about it.
