What is Home UV Phototherapy?
Home UV Phototherapy is the use of light to treat psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin disorders. During treatment, skin is exposed to a special type of light from a lamp called a phototherapy unit. These units come in many shapes and sizes, and range from hand-held and table-top models for spot treatment of small areas, to large “walk-in” units for full-body treatment. Practitioners may prescribe a home phototherapy unit for enhanced privacy and comfort. The purchase of a home phototherapy unit is commonly covered at least partially by health insurance.
Home Phototherapy is easy to use and safe for most people, including pregnant women and children, as well as elderly and those who are immuno-compromised. Treatments last for a few seconds to a few minutes, about three times a week. Those with psoriasis may see a reduction in symptoms, such as redness
and flaking, in as little as six to eight treatments. Those with vitiligo may see repigmentation begin within eight weeks.
