Take Control of Your Autoimmune Health with HLA-Cw6 Genetic Testing
Living with unexplained skin conditions or worrying about autoimmune disorders can feel overwhelming. The HLA-Cw6 genetic test provides the clarity you need to understand your genetic predisposition to psoriasis and related conditions. For South Africans seeking answers about their skin health and autoimmune risks, this advanced screening offers peace of mind and actionable insights.
Understanding Your HLA-Cw6 Test
The HLA-Cw6 test examines a specific genetic marker that plays a crucial role in your immune system’s function. This isn’t just another blood test – it’s a window into understanding why your body might be reacting to certain triggers. The HLA-Cw6 gene variant is strongly associated with psoriasis susceptibility, particularly the early-onset form that affects many South Africans.
Our testing uses the advanced Reverse SSOP – Luminex method, ensuring the highest accuracy and reliability for your peace of mind. The process is straightforward with no special preparation needed – just a simple blood sample that provides profound insights into your health.

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms or concerns, the HLA-Cw6 test could provide valuable answers:
- Unexplained skin rashes, redness, or scaling patches
- Family history of psoriasis or autoimmune conditions

- Early-onset skin conditions (before age 40)
- Concerns about genetic predisposition to autoimmune disorders

Many South Africans discover that understanding their HLA-Cw6 status helps explain symptoms they’ve been managing for years.
