Preparation
Steps to complete before traveling to Cuba, so your program begins smoothly.
Dermatological evaluation
Confirm the psoriasis type and severity; a skin biopsy may be performed to rule out other conditions.
Document plaque extent
Photograph affected areas and note trigger factors so progress can be measured against a clear baseline.
Review current therapies
List all topical, systemic, and phototherapy treatments you use so your dermatologist can plan a complementary regimen.
Plan for outpatient visits
Treatment is outpatient; arrange accommodation near the clinic and flexible scheduling for in-clinic sessions.
Recovery
What to do after your program to protect your results and support lasting recovery.
Apply Coriodermina as directed
Follow the application frequency and area-specific instructions from your dermatologist consistently.
Moisturize daily
Keep skin well-hydrated with emollients to reduce scaling, itching, and the risk of flares.
Avoid trigger factors
Manage stress, avoid skin injury (Koebner response), limit alcohol, and follow any dietary guidance.
Monitor for flares
Track flare frequency and severity, and contact your team early if a flare begins so treatment can be adjusted.
Attend follow-up
Schedule periodic reviews to assess response and refine the long-term management plan.
