PSORIASIS LAMP
What is a UV Phototherapy - Psoriasis Lamp?

UV phototherapy is widely accepted as an effective option to treat psoriasis. This phototherapy lamp is intended for psoriasis treatment of mild or localized psoriasis. If the summer sun's UV rays help clear up your Psoriasis, then our UV Sunlamp will do the same thing, but quicker. The PH-36 UVB Psoriasis Lamp does require a doctor's prescription, and as with all medical treatment options you should always consult your doctor or dermatologist. The UVB and UVA output averages: 35% UVB and 65% UVA.

The Cooper Hewitt psoriasis lamp is a "sectional" lamp meaning that you can treat a section of your body at once, but not the whole body at once. The floor stand is height adjustable and lowers as far as 20 inches and raises up to 64 inches. The arm that holds the UV lamp head also has 5 variable angles ranging from fully vertical down to 90 degrees. Finally, the UV lamp head itself can be pointed/set at any angle you wish. These three adjustment options provide you with numerous options for positioning yourself with the lamp. The tripod legs of the floor stand fold up for easy storage after use. Another benefit of the high Ultraviolet B ray output is that UVB is the most beneficial Ultraviolet ray for generating Vitamin D within the body. The PH-36 UV Lamp is a very economical alternative for those who travel to the doctors office for UVB phototherapy treatments.
How is the PH-36 Psoriasis Lamp different from your other UV sunlamps? Aside from being a licensed medical device the primary difference between the Cooper Hewitt PH-36 UV Psoriasis Lamp and our regular UV sunlamps is the UVB output. The UVB output from this lamp is on average 7-10% higher than our regular sunlamps. The 7-10% higher UVB output is certainly beneficial, but it is not essential to the effectiveness when compared to our non-prescription UV Sunlamps. Many of our customers choose our non-prescription sunlamps as a less expensive alternative. Will UV Phototherapy -
Psoriasis
Light Treatment work for me? First,
we must tell you to always consult your
physician/dermatologist. That said, if you notice improvement in your skin's
condition during the summer months when you are outside, this is mostly due to
the UV exposure you are receiving from the sun. UV phototherapy is widely
accepted as an effective cure for psoriasis and some other skin conditions, but
there are also other treatments such as topical creams and medications that you
can ask your doctor/dermatologist about.
