Find Clarity About Your Psoriasis Risk with Advanced Genetic Testing
If you’ve been struggling with persistent skin inflammation, redness, or scaling that just won’t go away, you’re not alone. Many South Africans face the uncertainty of psoriasis symptoms without understanding their underlying genetic causes. Our CARD14 Gene Psoriasis Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the answers you need to take control of your skin health journey.
Understanding Your CARD14 Gene Psoriasis Test
The CARD14 gene plays a crucial role in regulating your immune system’s response to skin inflammation. When this gene has specific variations, it can significantly increase your risk of developing psoriasis type 2. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your DNA with exceptional precision, identifying these genetic markers that traditional testing might miss.
This isn’t just another blood test – it’s a comprehensive genetic analysis that provides insights specifically tailored to psoriasis susceptibility. By understanding your genetic blueprint, you and your dermatologist can develop a more personalised approach to managing your skin health.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly valuable if you experience:
- Persistent red, scaly patches on your skin that don’t respond to standard treatments
- A family history of psoriasis, especially among close relatives
- Early-onset psoriasis symptoms that began in childhood or young adulthood
- Uncertainty about your diagnosis despite multiple dermatology consultations
- Concerns about passing psoriasis risk to your children
Many patients find relief simply from understanding the genetic basis of their condition, reducing the emotional burden of unexplained symptoms.

Early genetic detection offers powerful advantages for managing psoriasis effectively:
- Personalised Treatment Plans: Your results help dermatologists tailor treatments specifically to your genetic profile
- Proactive Management: Understanding your risk allows for earlier intervention and potentially better outcomes
