UVB Phototherapy will help you
to solve skin diseases
Why choose
UVB Phototherapy
Traditionally, broadband UVB was used, but increasingly, narrowband UVB phototherapy (311nm) is provided. Increasing doses of UVB are given each exposure (three to five times weekly until the skin condition has cleared, has failed to respond, or a pre-determined maximum number of treatments). The aim is to turn the skin very slightly pink but not to burn it.
Ultraviolet B, which is present in natural sunlight, is an effective treatment for psoriasis. UVB penetrates the skin and slows the growth of affected skin cells. Treatment involves exposing the skin to an artificial UVB light source for a set length of time on a regular schedule.
* Phototherapy is very effective in treating the symptoms of psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin disorders. However, there are no cures for these conditions, so as with any treatment, flare-ups can still occur.
Why UVB Phototherapy
is better than other methods
Safer
UVB phototherapy is considered a first-line treatment for many conditions such as psoriasis, vitiligo and eczema, is safe enough for pregnant women and children to use, and has none of the serious
Works Faster
For psoriasis, both Narrowband Phototherapy and PUVA have median clearance times of only 4-5 weeks. That means clear skin twice as fast as Enbrel, Stelara, Humira or Remicade!
More Affordable
In-office phototherapy treatments or the one-time cost of a home phototherapy unit are reasonably priced and may even be covered by some private insurance companies, depending on your country.
More Effective
For decades, statistics have shown consistently high rates of clearance for both PUVA and UVB. Patients who stop using phototherapy seldom suffer from the flares or rebounds that are common with other treatments.
