4. What are the side effects of UVB therapy?

   • UVB therapy, particularly with the 308-nm excimer laser, can lead to side effects such as skin redness and irritation. The efficacy of excimer laser in the treatment of localized conditions like vitiligo treatment may come with risks, especially with prolonged uvb exposure during treatment sessions.Patients receiving 308nm phototherapy might experience temporary discomfort. In a course of treatment, the excimer light in the treatment can cause blistering or peeling. Additionally, therapy with topical agents alongside narrowband uvb can heighten sensitivity, necessitating careful monitoring.When comparing the 308-nm excimer to other methods like laser phototherapy, the excimer laser and topical treatments may have different side effects. While the excimer lamp in the treatment of atopic dermatitis can be effective, it is crucial to weigh the benefits against potential adverse outcomes.

     
     

5. How many times can you have UVB treatment?

   • Frequency of 308-nm excimer laser treatment varies based on individual response to therapy. For conditions like psoriasis and vitiligo, vitiligo patients often undergo phototherapy lamp sessions, utilizing 308nm wavelength light. A randomized bilateral comparison study showed effective results with the excimer laser with the 308-nm.Typically, treatment modality involves several sessions per week, depending on the severity of the condition. The 308 nm laser is preferred over 311nm uvb for segmental vitiligo due to its targeted approach. The response to therapy can vary, making regular assessments crucial.
