FAQ's

About 75% of people receiving narrowband ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) treatments, the most common type of phototherapy, found it cleared their psoriasis or reduced the symptoms, according to another study published

Absolutely, UVB wands are designed for home use and are effective in treating various skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo. These lamps emit UVB light at specific wavelengths that are therapeutically beneficial.

Narrowband ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) light therapy. Your starting amount will depend on your skin type and how easily you burn or tan. It is best to follow the instructions given by your medical professional. In General, UVB light therapy is most effective when performed two or three times a week. Once the skin is clear, maintenance sessions can be performed weekly.

Ultraviolet B (UVB) phototherapy uses a wavelength of light invisible to human eyes. The light slows down the production of skin cells and is an effective treatment for some types of psoriasis that have not responded to topical treatments.

In many cases, that is the biggest problem with UVB light therapy. When the UVB stops, the psoriasis can restart. The best way to keep UVB “topped up” is to use the UVB wand to maintain a few seconds weekly.

The light therapy generally used to treat psoriasis is known as narrow-band UVB phototherapy. In this therapy, the skin is only exposed to UVB light wavelengths between 311 and 313 nanometers. The idea is that limiting the light spectrum in this way reduces the risk of side effects.
