This handheld device provides targeted phototherapy primarily for treating vitiligo and managing psoriasis flare-ups. It can also be used to relieve certain types of skin discomfort and to support skin-health treatments as directed by a clinician.
The product description states an effective therapeutic wavelength of 308nm (UVB), which is commonly used for targeted phototherapy. Note: the specifications table also lists '650nm' and a 'laser' light source — this appears to be a discrepancy. Confirm the exact wavelength and light source with the seller or the product manual before use.
The product is described as a Class II instrument and is marketed for home use. However, phototherapy can produce side effects if misused. Read the included instructions, use proper eye protection, perform a patch test, and consult your dermatologist before starting home treatment.
Basic steps: read the user manual; clean and dry the treatment area; wear protective eyewear; perform a small test spot first; select a low power setting and short exposure; aim the device at the target patch per the manual guidance. Increase exposure gradually only under clinical advice. Specific distances, times and schedules are provided in the device manual or by your clinician.
Treatment frequency and duration depend on individual skin condition and clinical protocol. Typical phototherapy regimens are set by a dermatologist. Do not follow another patient’s schedule—consult your healthcare provider for a personalized plan.
Wear protective goggles, avoid direct eye exposure, do a patch test first, avoid treating sunburned or infected skin, limit exposure to recommended settings, and stop use if you experience severe redness, blistering or unexpected skin changes. Check medications and conditions that increase photosensitivity.
People with known photosensitivity disorders, active skin cancers, unexplained skin lesions, or those taking photosensitizing medications should avoid use unless cleared by a physician. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals and children should consult a doctor before use.
Possible side effects include temporary redness, itching, dryness, burns or hyperpigmentation if overexposed. Serious or persistent reactions should prompt immediate discontinuation and medical evaluation.
Yes. Eye protection designed for UV/phototherapy should be worn by the patient and anyone nearby during operation to prevent eye injury.
'Adjustable power' means the device offers multiple output settings so you can start low and increase intensity as tolerated or as directed by a clinician. Refer to the user manual for instructions on changing settings and recommended starting levels.
The product listing does not specify the power source. It is described as lightweight and portable, but confirm whether it is mains-powered, rechargeable, or battery-operated by checking the product manual or asking the seller.
General care: power off and unplug before cleaning, wipe the exterior with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth (avoid liquids entering the unit), store in a cool dry place, and follow any specific cleaning or servicing instructions in the manual. Do not disassemble the device yourself.
The listing does not state expected lifetime or replacement part availability. LED modules typically have long lifespans, but confirm the rated lifetime and warranty/replaceability with the seller or in the product documentation.
Class II commonly refers to double-insulated electrical construction (no earth connection required) or, in regulatory contexts, a device classification indicating a certain level of regulatory control. Check the device certification documents or contact the manufacturer for the exact meaning in this listing.
The product listing does not state specific regulatory approvals. If regulatory clearance or medical-device certification is important to you, request warranty/approval documents (CE, FDA 510(k), or local equivalent) from the seller or manufacturer before purchase.
