These UVB lamps only emit a very narrow waveband from the ‘B’ bandwidth of the UV spectrum (290 to 315). The narrow waveband is between 305 and 315 nm and peaks at 311 nm: the most efficacious waveband for the treatment of psoriasis. This means that treatment is much more focused and exposure times are much shorter. When you first start UVB treatment, sessions may only last 30 seconds to a minute to begin with, but once the sessions carry on, so will the time frame of usage. This allows you to have better control over the frequency you expose your skin to, making this narrowband radiation technique suitable for home use therapy. This in turn leads to a reduction of side effects such as reddening of the skin and itching. All of this makes them ideal for phototherapy treatment of diseases such as psoriasis and vitiligo.
