Considering its effects, side effects, and contraindications, phototherapy is a treatment option that can be used in patients who do not respond to topical treatments, suffer side effects, or have diffuse lesions. By showing antiproliferative, immunomodulatory, and anti-inflammatory actions, phototherapy may help heal psoriatic lesions. Phototherapy can be administered as narrow-band UVB or PUVA. It can be combined with other anti-psoriatic therapies. Since it may increase the risk of non-melanoma skin cancer, its use should be limited to a certain number of sessions, and any maintenance treatment involving phototherapy should be avoided. |
