Ultraviolet phototherapy
Ultraviolet (UV) phototherapy is a medical treatment that uses UV light to treat various skin conditions, such as psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo. By exposing the skin to controlled doses of UV light, it helps reduce inflammation, slows down excessive skin cell growth, and promotes healing. This treatment is usually conducted in a clinic under the supervision of a healthcare professional and may involve multiple sessions to achieve the desired results. While effective, it’s important to monitor exposure to avoid potential side effects, such as skin damage.
