Figure 3 Treatment response over time. Left elbow: local treatment with calcipotriol, distant parts in combination with excimer laser. Visible benefits from the combined therapy regimen could be recorded from the first laser sessions on, rated as partial clearance from visit 5–17. Due to increasing erythema in visit 18 the total score was above 2. Right elbow: local treatment with dithranol, distant parts in combination with excimer laser. Also quick response to the combination therapy, rated as partial clearance from visit 5–16 and as total clearance at the follow‐up visits. The overall scores of local treatment alone were between 8–5.
