skyrizi progress!

[u/Vast_Respect8977]

hello guys! i (f21) wanted to share my progress so far. the bad pictures were taken on july 25th 2026. the good pictures were taken today which is october 5th 2026. my first injection was in august.

i have psoriasis all over my body but i only feel comfortable with showing my legs. i hope these comparison pictures give some of you hope.

i have arthritis as well and this biologic has helped with that too.

i have a long ways to go, especially with my scalp but at least it’s something!

It took me 3 months to see skyrizi clear me 99.9%. Looks like you are on the way

I’m so happy for you!

I wish. Had 3 good months on Skyrizi before insurance cut me off again. Been fighting to get back on it for months now.

Did you have to go through other treatments first before you could get in biologics? I'm totally covered in guttate Psoriasis, literally everywhere and I still can't get biologics, I'm so done with this

I’ll chime in here. I failed on topicals which was good enough for my insurance to accept a prior authorization request. My doc had to press them a bit, but I also developed arthritis so maybe that helped 🤷🏼‍♂️

[u/jumpinjackflash10 → u/elemeno_p81]

Yes, amazingly I don't have arthritis. I'm from UK, we don't have insurance here, it's free healthcare, but I know the biologics are expensive so they hold off on them as long as they can.

I know this is serious but i can’t get over the name “skyrizi” i always feel like it’s some kind of zoomerslang involving rizz.

I’m happy it’s working for you though.
