Learn Our Advanced Approach to Light Therapy

What Is UVB Phototherapy?

UVB phototherapy delivers controlled doses of ultraviolet B light to the skin’s surface. This treatment slows abnormal skin cell growth, reduces inflammation, and helps restore pigment in conditions like vitiligo.

Unlike natural sunlight, phototherapy is precisely calibrated, making it safe and effective when administered under dermatological supervision. Treatment is typically performed 2–3 times per week over a series of weeks to months.
