For the third year in a row, Janssen publishes the magazine APSOLUTELY. To be able to inform patients even better, Janssen also launches the patient platform apsolutely.be, full of stories and tips about psoriasis.

Psoriasis is a chronic skin inflammation in which skin cells start dividing much faster than normal. This causes thick, red and often scaly patches to appear. Psoriasis is not a contagious disease, but it can greatly affect the lives of patients. It is therefore necessary for everyone to have access to information that can help to cope better with the disease. Janssen is therefore launching the third edition of the magazine and the new platform in cooperation with patients, doctors, nurses and patient associations.

APSOLUTELY magazine

In this edition of the magazine, you can read tips from doctors and experts and powerful stories from people having psoriasis. For example, you can read the story of Wendy, who has experienced psoriasis and is a hairdresser. She shows that it is better to name things rather than keep quiet about them. Therapists also take the floor: Dr. Hertog talks about the importance of participation by those who live with psoriasis, and Dr. Walschot discusses the importance of giving the right information.
