What is UV Phototherapy?UV Phototherapy is the use of UV light to treat psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema and other skin disorders. UV light could slow the rapid growth of new skin cells. This is helpful in treating skin disorders, which causes skin cells to grow too rapidly. The cells in most patients then begin to behave normally, which reduce or eliminate the symptoms of the skin disease. There are two types of UV light therapy, UVA and UVB.
Why Choose Phototherapy?
1. Safer: Narrow Band UVB phototherapy is safe enough for pregnant women and children to use. UVB Phototherapy has no long-term side effects.
2. More Affordable: In-office photo·-therapy treatments or the one-time costs of a home unit are reasonably priced. UV Phototherapy costs less than biologic injections and requires only periodic visits to the doctor.
3. Faster: Both Narrow Band Phototherapy and PUVA have clearance times of only 4-5 weeks. That means clear skin twice as fast as biological drugs.
4. Effective: Higher remission rates than other therapies. In addition, patients who stop using phototherapy seldom suffer from the rebounds that are common with other treatments.
Why choose UVB?
UVB treatments are doing in a physician’s office, clinic or at home with a home phototherapy device. There are two types of UVB treatments: broad-band and narrow-band. The major difference between them is that narrow-band UVB units emit a more specific or “narrow” range of UV wavelengths. Narrow-band UVB is now more frequently used than broad-band UVB.
Why Choose Narrow Band UVB?
There are two types of UVB treatment, broad band and narrow band. The major difference between them is that narrow band UVB light release a smaller range of ultraviolet light. Narrow-band UVB is similar to broad-band UVB in many ways. Several studies indicate that narrow-band UVB clears psoriasis faster and produces longer remissions than broad-band UVB. It also may be effective with fewer treatments per week than broad-band UVB. With more research being done every day on conditions such as eczema and vitiligo, Narrow Band UVB continues to show its ability with its promising results.
