Psoriasis is a chronic disorder characterized by chronic inflammation, associated with genetic and environmental factors. Treatments such as systemic, topical, and phototherapy are mostly used in long periods with potential side effects. An alternative herbal treatment is topical Aloe vera as antiinflammation, antimicrobial, antiproliferative, and keratolytic. Clinical trials reported the effectiveness of Aloe vera in decreasing the psoriasis severity, particularly in plaque type without toxicity and side effects. Topical Aloe vera is safe and can be considered as an alternative herbal treatment
