Skin conditions do not always affect large areas of the body. Sometimes, a person may have a few stubborn patches of vitiligo or psoriasis that do not respond well to creams alone. The excimer laser delivers a focused beam of 308 nm ultraviolet B light directly onto these patches.
Because the light is targeted, the surrounding healthy skin receives very little exposure. Treatment is usually given as a series of short sessions, and how well it works depends on the condition, the area being treated and how long the patches have been present.
Wondering if excimer laser could help your patches? Book an appointment with Dr. Lipy Gupta at Akiraa Derma.
