UVB narrowband 311 nm
Inhibits cell growth in psoriasis and is used in the Dermalight devices from hand comb to full-body cabin.
UVA light therapy
Used in the partial-body and full-body irradiation devices against atopic dermatitis and eczema.
Direct current (constant and pulsed)
Direct current therapy via tap water in iontophoresis for pain-free and medication-free sweat reduction.
UV fluorescence diagnostics
Diagnostic UV light (Woodlight) for dermatological diagnosis.
Controlled visible light (daylight PDT)
For photodynamic therapy of actinic keratoses, in preparation for early 2027.
