Psoriasis phototherapy
Frustrating, isolating, unrelenting. A heartbreaking disease that can negatively impact relationships, careers and social life. You hope, you pray but most of all you worry !
In non psoriatic skin the cells grow and move to the surface where they are sloughed off at a steady unnoticeable rate, taking about 1 month.
In psoriatic skin, this cycle is speeded up to only 3 or 4 days ! As the skin thickens with extra cells, the blood vessels that support them grow larger in order to feed them. Dead skin cells pile up on the surface creating a white, flaky layer over the patch of inflamed skin.
To combat psoriasis, LHE targets the blood vessels that feed the abnormal growth of psoriatic skin cells. Using intense flashes of visible spectrum green and yellow light to shrink and eliminate the blood vessels. LHE effectively closes the supply line and shuts down the process. Treatments are normally based on 2 per week for 4 weeks.
Price available upon free consultation.
