What is Psoriasis and How is it Diagnosed?
Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that causes red, scaly patches typically on the elbows, knees, and scalp and may be linked with joint pain. It is diagnosed by a dermatologist through a skin examination, sometimes supported by a biopsy. Whilst psoriasis isn't curable, it does sometimes clear up naturally. With modern treatments it is possible for the skin to be totally clear and life quality to be restored.

Psoriasis Treatment
Options
At ProDerm UK, we offer a range of highly effective treatments, tailored to your condition.
Topical Treatments
Topical creams and moisturisers help to reduce inflammation, scaling, and redness. These are often the first line of treatment for mild to moderate psoriasis.
Ultraviolet (UV) Phototherapy
Controlled exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light can slow excessive skin cell production and reduce inflammation. This treatment is particularly useful for those whose psoriasis improves with natural sunlight.
Advanced Drug Therapy
For more severe cases, we offer immune-suppressive medications and biologic therapies. These treatments target specific pathways in the immune system to control symptoms and prevent flare-ups. The modern biological therapies are incredibly effective with very few side effects and can give clear or almost clear skin within only a few weeks.
Lifestyle & Long-Term Management
When lifestyle changes aren’t enough, ProDerm UK provides advanced medical solutions for long-term relief.
While medical treatments are essential, lifestyle choices can help reduce flare-ups:
Avoiding triggers like alcohol & smoking

Maintaining a healthy, balanced diet

Cutting-Edge Research & Innovation
Innovations in psoriasis treatment are rapidly changing how we manage the condition. New therapies like Janus Kinase inhibitors, biologics, and personalised medicine offer more precise and effective results, with far fewer side effects than traditional options.
These treatments target specific parts of the immune system, helping to reduce inflammation and prevent flare-ups. They’re particularly beneficial for patients who haven’t responded well to standard therapies.
At ProDerm, we’re committed to following up-to-date medical research, so our patients benefit from the very latest drug advancements in dermatological care.

Happy Clients
Dr Friedmann’s bedside manner is extremely professional and reassuring. I felt comfortable during surgery and knew that I would be well supported during my recovery.
Charlie F
Dr. Adam Friedmann helped me get rid of a stubborn wart quickly and painlessly. Professional, efficient, and highly effective—I couldn’t recommend him more!
Alex C
Dr Friedmann is a pleasure to work with. He is friendly and charismatic; his experience as an accomplished dermatology consultant shines through. Patients are always delighted with his care and efficiency.
Jen
I've worked with many clinicians, but few show the care, skill and insight that Dr Friedmann brings to every patient. As both a colleague and patient of his, I’ve seen first-hand the exceptional standard of care he delivers. Calm, compassionate, and brilliant – Dr Friedmann is everything you’d hope for in a dermatologist.
Diana
Simply brilliant! From the initial consult to the actual procedure Dr Friedmann made every part of the journey informative and reassuring. I experienced minimal discomfort and was amazed at how quickly I healed.
Ben
Dr. Friedmann was welcoming, professional, and reassuring throughout my entire treatment. My initial consultation came very soon after my first enquiry and Dr. Friedmann's diagnosis was both clear and thorough. He took the time to answer all my questions and discussed the possible treatment options. During the procedure itself, Dr. Friedmann was calm and kept me informed of what he was doing - this was very important as I was nervous. The aftercare was excellent and Dr. Friedmann was incredibly reassuring
Rob
In the short while I’ve been taking the medication I really have noticed an impact! Thank you Dr Friedmann
Natalie C
Fantastic experience from start to finish. Dr Friedman is very professional, knowledgeable, thorough and reassuring. I received great attention and care. Thank you
Vilma B.
I had heard a lot about advanced treatments for acne, and I went to Dr Friedmann because I wanted to understand more about it – his practical down-to-earth manner and expert explanations and advice debunked the myths, and gave me the confidence I needed – he understands people as well as he understands treatments, and his care has been exemplary.
Helen C
He is easily the best dermatologist I have ever been to – his expertise and professionalism have been a revelation!
Peter B
I had suffered intermittent bouts of quite bad acne over many years, and never really found a long-term solution with any of the specialists I had used – until my husband introduced me to Dr Friedmann, whose advice and treatment has been superb – thanks to him my acne is now under control and I have my life back again.
Catherine B
After struggling with acne and various dermatologists for decades, it was a revelation. He demonstrated a real expertise in the subject and designed a tailored treatment and maintenance package that has transformed my life during the 10 years I have been seeing him – only wish I had discovered Dr Friedmann 40 years ago!
Emily R
Dr Adam Friedmann is open and easy to talk to – and most importantly has a genuine real understanding of the debilitating effects of acne on the sufferer, and he makes you feel at ease and comfortable at all times.
Anna W
Dr Friedmann is by far the best dermatologist I have ever had – his excellent understanding manner combined with a pragmatic approach and real expertise and professionalism is unique in my experience.
Richard T
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone – in fact I already have several times to both friends and my wife – and all of them agreed with me that they wouldn’t now go to anyone else.
Mark D
In earlier life I had seen a number of dermatologists for persistent and recurring acne problems, but over 10 years ago I started with Dr Adam Friedmann, and have stayed with him ever since – in my opinion, he’s the best in his field.
James L
Throughout every step of this process, Dr Friedmann put me at ease and filled me with confidence and the clinic and his nursing team were absolutely fantastic. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Dr Friedmann to anyone
Fiona G
Dr Friedmann very quickly treated the isolated area with liquid Nitrogen. This was pain free and I was advised that the dark patch would simply turn a little bit darker over the next few days and would come off by itself. I just had to lightly moisturise during this healing stage and for a little while afterwards to help the process. This happened exactly as promised and now, several months later there is absolutely no mark or trace of the dark patch on my cheek.
Carol M
After a thorough examination, Dr Friedmann diagnosed the mark to be a harmless solar lentigo and explained it was nothing to worry about and is commonly caused by sunlight.
Linda P
I had a small dark area of skin on my face for a few years and after noticing it getting gradually larger and worrying about possible skin cancer, I went to see Dr Friedmann at his Harley Street clinic.
Margaret C
Dr Adam Friedmann’s sensible, practical, and expert advice and treatment for my acne was transformative, giving me back my confidence in my personal and business life – I can’t thank him enough!
Charles B
Dr Friedmann listens patiently and his extensive skill and experience is clear from his careful questioning and advice. He’s unhurried approach is reassuring. He has been clear that he remains available to support me by email or telephone on my ongoing treatment for eczema when a further consultation is not necessary.
Paul L
My husband and I have been patients of Dr Adam Friedmann for years – he is by far the best dermatologist I have ever seen, and the highest recommendation I can give him is that if ever my daughter or her grandchildren needed advice or treatment in that area, I would insist they go to him!
Caroline B
I have longstanding and severe rosacea which at times flares up. During flare ups it is painful and affects my confidence. Dr. Friedmann was able to see me at short notice during my recent flare up. There is an easy process for booking and payment. Dr. Friedmann was kind and reassuring and most importantly incredibly knowledgeable. He created a treatment plan with both short term and long-term outcomes. My skin has already settled and is feeling and looking much better. I would highly recommend Adam and his team.
Sarah C
Professional, knowledgeable, and caring. Definitely the best dermatologist in Cheltenham as far as I’m concerned!
James R
Dr Friedmann and his team were amazing! My skin has never been better. Highly recommend ProDerm!
