UVB Therapy

At Park Avenue Dermatology, we are committed to providing innovative and effective treatment options for our patients. One of our specialized offerings is UVB Lightbox Therapy, a proven and safe treatment for a variety of chronic skin conditions, including:

✔ Psoriasis – Reduces inflammation and slows down the overproduction of skin cells, leading to smoother, healthier skin.
✔ Vitiligo – Helps stimulate melanocytes to restore pigmentation in affected areas.
✔ Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis) – Soothes itching and inflammation, providing much-needed relief for persistent flare-ups.
✔ Pruritus (Chronic Itchy Skin) – Reduces itchiness associated with various dermatologic conditions.

How Does UVB Lightbox Therapy Work?

UVB (Ultraviolet B) phototherapy exposes the skin to a controlled dose of UVB light, which is the most effective wavelength for treating inflammatory and autoimmune skin disorders. This therapy slows down abnormal skin cell growth, reduces itching, and promotes healing by targeting the immune response in the skin.

Why Choose UVB Therapy?

Many patients benefit from UVB phototherapy because it provides an alternative to systemic treatments, including biologic injections or oral medications. This makes it an excellent option for:

✔ Patients with medical conditions preventing the use of biologics or systemic drugs
✔ Individuals seeking a more holistic, non-invasive treatment approach
✔ Those who have not achieved desired results with topical creams or medications

At Park Avenue Dermatology, we have seen remarkable success with UVB therapy, especially in cases where traditional medications have not been effective. Our dermatologists carefully tailor treatment plans to each patient, ensuring optimal results with minimal side effects.

Is UVB Lightbox Therapy Covered by Insurance?

Yes! The good news is that UVB therapy is covered by most insurance carriers, making it an accessible and affordable treatment option for many patients. Our team will work with you to verify your coverage and provide guidance on the treatment process.
