It increases proliferation of the skin layers due to excessive division of the cell and rapidly and travel from the basal layer to the surface of the skin. The skin cannot shed these cells quickly enough therefore they build up, leading to thick and dry patches. Silvery, flaky areas of dead skin build up on the surface of the Skin.

The skin layer underneath, that contains the nerves and blood which becomes red and swollen. Psoriasis can develop at any age but very often it develops at the ages of 15 to 35. It is not contagious so people can not catch from each other also its lesions are not infectious. As per the case study males & females have developed psoriasis at equal rates. It also occurs in all racial groups, but varying rates are different.

In case of psoriasis, the T-cells attack healthy skin cells mistakenly. Apart from it T-cells also trigger increased production of healthy skin cells and other white blood cells. These cells travel into the skin causing redness and pus in pustule lesions. The process becomes an ongoing cycle in which new skin cells move to the outermost layer of skin very quickly. Skin cells build up in thick, scaly patches on the skin surface, continuing until proper treatment. However, T cells to malfunction in people with psoriasis are not entirely clear.
