Kim Kardashian opens up about her psoriasis flare-up
Kim Kardashian's Met Gala exhibits are typically noteworthy, but one evening stands out because of a severe psoriasis flare-up on her face. The founder of Skims shared with SHE MD podcast presenters Mary Alice Haney and Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi that she only experiences itchiness in one region of her face. And it will itch like crazy when it does.
Kardashian has been candid about her battle with psoriasis. "When I started to get a little bit desperate, it started to cover my face, and there was a spot really close to my eye, and it would just burn a little bit. I remember I had the Met Ball coming up that week, and it was covering my face."
Haney then asked her if it was stress-related, to which the Kardashians star replied there’s been a lot going on in her mind at that moment. Meanwhile, the National Institutes of Health defines psoriasis as a chronic illness in which the immune system becomes overactive, causing skin cells to grow too quickly, resulting in scaly, inflammatory patches of skin.

In an interview with Allure speaking of her diagnosis, she said, "Psoriasis broke out all over my body, and I got psoriatic arthritis, so I couldn't really move my hands. I had to see a rheumatologist, who placed me on steroids. I was freaked out. I removed the meat again, and it has calmed down.”
At the same time, she had recently finished her acrimonious divorce from Kanye West. Who was also embroiled in a public spat with Kardashian's then-boyfriend Pete Davidson?
