Find out why this light therapy is used and how it could improve your skin.
Have you been diagnosed with psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, or vitiligo? Are you looking for ways to improve your symptoms without having to worry about the side effects involved in taking certain medications? This is the ideal time to talk with our Tulsa, OK, dermatologists, Dr. Alison Fischer and Dr. Robert Fischer, about the Xtrac Excimer Laser. This is a safe, highly effective UVB therapy that can improve symptoms of psoriasis, vitiligo, and atopic dermatitis.
It’s nothing new for people with psoriasis to undergo phototherapy or light therapy to improve their symptoms. The Xtrac Excimer Laser allows our dermatologists to be able to provide even faster results than with traditional phototherapy. This is because this specific laser uses highly concentrated UVB light to damage the T cells that play a role in the immune system and the development of psoriasis plaques.
This treatment is quick and completely painless. We will apply oil to the skin before shining the laser over the treatment areas. The laser is great for targeting both large and small areas and usually takes no more than 20 minutes. You may experience a little redness after the procedure for the first 1-2 days. It may feel like you have a minor sunburn. Make sure to follow our Tulsa, OK, dermatologists’ instructions on how to properly protect and care for your skin after each laser session.
While a patient will still need to continue their other psoriasis or dermatitis treatments including medications, we have found that Xtrac Excimer Laser is significantly effective for treating psoriasis flare-ups. It reduces the severity and number of flare-ups. Other benefits of the Xtrac laser include:
