You can take advantage of the benefits of phototherapy in the comfort and convenience of your own home using a smaller, personal-sized phototherapy unit as prescribed by your doctor. Home phototherapy fits well into any busy schedule and eliminates the need to leave work or school for frequent appointments, long drives to the medical center and expensive insurance co-pays. In a study of 196 psoriasis patients, half of whom had a home phototherapy device while the other half received their treatments in a hospital, there was found to be no difference in the effectiveness or safety between the two settings but there was a greater patient satisfaction rate with home therapy.
