There are other treatments¡ So why should I choose UV phototherapy?
Type:Uv phototherapy Time:2015-05-08 11:58:39Phototherapy is Safer¡Narrow Band UVB phototherapy is considered a first-line treatment for many conditions such as psoriasis, vitiligo and eczema, is safe enough for pregnant women and children to use, and has none of the serious side effects associated with competing biological drug therapies.
Phototherapy is More Affordable¡In-office phototherapy treatments or the one-time cost of a home unit are reasonably priced and covered by Medicare and most insurance companies. Other treatments such as biological drug therapies can cost more than the price of the average car ¨C EACH YEAR!
Phototherapy Works Faster¡For psoriasis, both Narrow Band Phototherapy and PUVA have median clearance times of only 4-5 weeks. That means clear skin twice as fast as Enbrel, Stelara, Humira or Remicade!
Phototherapy is More Effective¡For decades, statistics have shown consistently high rates of clearance for both PUVA and Narrow Band UVB. In addition, patients who stop using phototherapy seldom suffer from the flares or rebounds that are common with other treatments.
