What is UVB therapy
Ultraviolet B phototherapy is a clinically validated approach to lowering skin inflammation and is commonly prescribed for conditions such as psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema and acne. It can be particularly effective for psoriasis when the affected areas are widespread or resistant to other treatments. Home UVB devices offer a convenient option for continuing therapy outside clinic visits. Treatments are typically scheduled three times per week, reducing the need for frequent clinic trips. Devices used for phototherapy are usually cabinets or handheld units with panels of fluorescent tubes and are employed for psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema and polymorphic light eruption. In early sessions, treatment times may be brief—ranging from seconds to minutes—and are gradually increased based on how the skin responds. A typical at‑home course lasts roughly 2–3 months as improvements occur.
Who this device is for
Ideal for individuals dealing with psoriasis or vitiligo, especially when the treated areas are small such as the scalp, hands, or joints. Its lightweight, travel-friendly design supports convenient use at home or while traveling.
