Celebs with psoriasis: Loose Women's Saira Khan, Strictly's Aljaz Skorjanec, Giovanni Pernice, Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, LeAnn Rimes, Love Island's Olivia Bowen, more.
October 29, 2021 - 11:09 BST Bridie Wilkins Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition caused by an overactive immune system that speeds up skin cell growth. It manifests as itchy, flaky red skin, and can also lead to other health issues including arthritis, depression and diabetes, but contrary to popular belief, it's not contagious.
SEE: Saira Khan opens up about her anxiety-inducing skin condition as she poses in a bikini on holiday"A few weeks after giving birth, my skin began to feel itchy and gradually developed flaky patches again. I would have loved to wear sleeveless tops this summer, but I didn't want anyone to see my skin."
Strictly Come Dancing professional Aljaz Skorjanec opened up about his experience with psoriasis in an exclusive interview with HELLO!. He explained that he noticed his first flare-up as a teenager, after moving to Australia to pursue a career as a professional dancer."I put my mind under stress moving into a different place and living on my own for the first time. It was a lot of hard work on my mind and body. And I feel like through that stress, my psoriasis started appearing.
"It was a few years ago, it was right before I started Strictly. For whatever reason, I didn't take much of a break that summer. I kind of went straight through work, work, work, and rarely gave myself time off.""When I then started Strictly professional rehearsals, my skin really flared up. Sweat doesn't help in rehearsals because sweat is acidic. And if you don't cleanse your skin of sweat, it irritates the skin.
As for how she treats it, she explained:"Before the psoriatic arthritis hit, I spent about four months doing everything natural – every ointment, cream, serum and foam you can possibly imagine, and everything from the dermatologist. I even tried a herbal tea that tasted like tar." "It shouldn't even be a thing to be honest, but I know how on bad days it can get you down. Your messages on how much it helps seeing me confident with it are really lovely. Really so sweet & I'm happy that you guys can take something away from seeing someone just living with it. You can too!"6. Cara Delevingne Model Cara Delevingne's psoriasis is typically stress-induced, and her first flare-up came during Fashion Week in 2013.
