Direct answer

What the current evidence says

We don't offer stem cell or exosome therapy as a psoriasis cure, because no generic MSC product has proven reliable plaque clearance or replacement of modern biologic treatment. What we do offer is a dermatology-led evaluation of your severity, joint symptoms, and prior therapy, with proven topical, systemic, and biologic options at the center of your plan. Request your free medical evaluation and we'll be candid about where the evidence stands.

Clinical map

Start with the diagnosis, stage, and treatment context

Psoriasis has highly effective guideline-based options, and we never let an experimental claim delay your skin and joint control.

Established care comes first

  • Topical and light therapy: We use topical corticosteroids, vitamin D analogues, and phototherapy when appropriate.
  • Systemic treatment: We help select conventional systemic medicines, small molecules, or biologics according to your severity and preference.
  • Joint protection: We refer suspected psoriatic arthritis promptly, because untreated joint disease can cause lasting damage.
  1. 01

    Skin burden

    We measure body surface area, location, symptoms, and impact on sleep, work, and mood.

  2. 02

    Joint and enthesis screen

    Inflammatory pain, swelling, and nail disease can signal psoriatic arthritis, and we screen for it proactively.

  3. 03

    Comorbidity

    Cardiometabolic disease, smoking, and mood all factor into your treatment plan.

Evidence position

What is known, what is investigational, and what is not demonstrated

Care foundation

Established control, no proven cell shortcut

Psoriasis involves IL-23, Th17, and IL-17 immune pathways, but a plausible mechanism is not proof a cell product improves your outcome, and we say so.

Research boundary

We won't oversell IV immune modulation

Nail, scalp, and joint involvement can change urgency and treatment choice, which we screen for at every visit.

Claim check

Topical exosome claims need real evidence

Results vary between patients and stem cell therapy is not a guaranteed cure — case reports don't support claims of PASI 75 or biologic-free control.

Product and route

A mechanism is not a clinical outcome

  1. 01

    We won't oversell IV immune modulation

    An infusion cannot be assumed to safely target plaques or joints, and we explain that clearly before any decision.

    BoundaryEvidence applies only to the studied product, population, dose, route, comparator, and endpoint.

  2. 02

    Topical exosome claims need real evidence

    Before-and-after photos don't establish PASI response or durable control, and we hold every claim to that standard.

    BoundaryEvidence applies only to the studied product, population, dose, route, comparator, and endpoint.

Evidence ledger

Read the actual study, including the result that did not change

Each row keeps product identity, route, endpoint, and limitation together so one trial cannot become a generic treatment claim.

    Evidence and consensus-based clinical guideline
    Finding
    The guideline provides evidence-based treatment pathways and does not establish MSC or exosome therapy for psoriasis.
    Limitation
    Cell research remains insufficient for routine clinical efficacy claims.

Outcomes before travel

Decide what meaningful change would look like

A baseline and a time point matter more than an isolated testimonial. These measures should be chosen before any intervention.

FAQ

Questions patients ask before an Istanbul review

We won't claim a cure. Modern treatments achieve strong control for many people, and MSC or exosome therapy hasn't proven predictable clearance or remission.
