Stubborn and extensive dermatoses, such as psoriasis vulgaris or atopic dermatitis (eczema), are indications for
phototherapeutic methods. These include UVB phototherapy, UVA photochemotherapy (PUVA), UVA irradiation following
prior photosensitization, UVA, treatment and combination treatments. Phototherapy is contraindicated in the case of
light-induced dermatoses. Caution must also be exercised in patients receiving photosensitizing medications. When
establishing the indication, consideration must be given to the treatment-related increased risk of developing skin
cancer. The patient must also be informed of such undesired potential side effects as burns and premature aging of the
skin.
