    Glossary UVB Phototherapy

    uses ultraviolet B light to treat skin conditions

    UVB Phototherapy, also known as Ultraviolet B Therapy, is a medical treatment that uses a specific wavelength of ultraviolet light (UVB) to treat various skin conditions, including psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo. The therapy works by reducing inflammation and slowing down the overproduction of skin cells. It is administered under controlled conditions, typically in a clinical setting, to minimize the risk of skin damage.
