medical device emitting 308-nm UV light for skin treatments

A 308-nm excimer laser is a medical device that emits ultraviolet light at a wavelength of 308 nanometers. It is commonly used in dermatology to treat various skin conditions, including psoriasis, vitiligo, and alopecia areata, by targeting specific areas of the skin to reduce inflammation and stimulate pigment production. This precise wavelength allows for targeted treatment with minimal damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
