What is UVB therapy?
UVB light therapy is a proven method to reduce skin inflammation and is commonly used by doctors to help conditions such as psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema and acne. It is particularly effective for psoriasis when the condition is widespread or resistant to other treatments. Home UVB devices offer a convenient option for ongoing treatment outside clinic visits. Treatments are typically scheduled three times per week, so having a device at home can save trips to the doctor.
Light therapy devices are usually cabinets or handheld units with panels of fluorescent tubes. They are used for psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema and polymorphic light eruption. In initial sessions, treatment times may be very short, ranging from seconds to minutes, and durations are gradually increased based on how your skin responds. A typical first course of home light therapy lasts roughly 2–3 months until the skin improves. Our range of ultraviolet light machines is kept in stock, including options for home use.
