Advantages of UV Phototherapy in Treating Skin Diseases

Ultraviolet therapy refers to a physical therapy technique that uses ultraviolet radiation to prevent and treat diseases in the human body. It is one of the basic methods for clinical treatment of various chronic skin diseases such as vitiligo and psoriasis in dermatology. With the continuous updating of ultraviolet light sources, the clinical application of ultraviolet phototherapy is also constantly improving.

At present, LED308nm phototherapy technology has achieved good therapeutic effects in treating some skin diseases, especially some stubborn diseases. So, for the phototherapy band, what are the benefits of using LED308nm to treat diseases compared to other products?

Compared with quasi molecular materials, LED light sources have lower operating voltage and lower electromagnetic radiation. LED light sources have a long lifespan of up to 3000 hours, and their intensity hardly decreases during use; The lifespan of excimer light sources is relatively short, only about 300 hours, and the intensity of the light source gradually decreases during use, making it expensive. Therefore, in the long run, LED light source phototherapy devices are more economical.

For vitiligo patients, treatment effectiveness is a more important indicator. Compared with the 311nm ultraviolet phototherapy device, 311nm ultraviolet phototherapy can darken white spots, but the treatment period is longer and there is a risk of recurrence. Therefore, attention should be paid to the time and intensity of use of ultraviolet phototherapy. LED308 phototherapy is an innovative therapy with the advantages of short treatment cycle and significant therapeutic effect, and has also achieved good results in the treatment of vitiligo. It can significantly improve the patient's skin color and increase pigmentation in the affected area, which is more reliable.

Whether choosing 308nm treatment or 311nm treatment, it is a treatment method, and different frequency bands are suitable for different diseases. Compared with traditional 311 phototherapy, 308 has achieved advantages in terms of effectiveness.
