UVB Narrowband Bulbs

UVB Narrowband bulb Information

All our UVB lamps use Philips Narrowband UVB bulbs.   There are alternatives used in other lights, usually manufactured and shipped from china which are untested and could be dangerous.

Clinical studies worldwide indicate that Philips UV lamps are the most effective lamps currently available for treating Psoriasis and Vitiligo, as well as other less common skin diseases.  

More than 400 independent clinical studies worldwide indicate that the Philips UVB Narrowband lamps are safer and more effective than any other lamps in their class. The lamps emit only a narrow wavelength band that peaks at 311nm, the most effective waveband for treating psoriasis. This results in much shorter exposure times and fewer potential side effects such as itching and reddening of the skin. This makes them ideal for phototherapy treatment of diseases such as psoriasis, parapsoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis, and mycosis fungoides.  This waveband of rays is also proven to be the most beneficial in stimulating your skin to produce Vitamin D3

The lamps are ideal for home therapy because the overall dosage of this narrowband radiation can be closely controlled.
