Excimer Light
Avoiding complex health issues such as allergy need to be identified during the early stages in order to experience the optimum results. Allergens and pollens cause major problems due to which proper health benefits are not realized.
Excimer light therapy is a highly effective treatment for various skin conditions, utilizing a specific wavelength of ultraviolet radiation (308nm). This method targets the affected areas of the skin, making it an ideal choice for treating disorders like psoriasis, vitiligo, dermatitis, and other related conditions. The laser emits UVB radiations within the range of 309-312nm, providing precise treatment with minimal exposure to surrounding skin. Its focused action ensures effective treatment while minimizing side effects.
Common Symptoms Treated:
- Redness
- Itching
- White spots
- Large patches
Excimer light therapy is an advanced laser treatment that focuses solely on the affected areas, delivering high-intensity ultraviolet radiation in precise pulses. These nanosecond pulses target the skin plaques without harming surrounding healthy tissue. The treatment helps to lighten patches and restore the skin’s normal appearance. Typically, patients undergo at least two treatments each week, with a minimum interval of 48 hours between sessions.
Excimer light therapy can be used on various body parts, including elbows, hands, knees, palms, feet, and the back.

Excimer Laser Therapy is as effective as traditional light therapies, offering remarkable improvements in skin conditions. It works by reducing redness and enhancing skin tone, especially for issues like Psoriasis, Vitiligo, Allergic Dermatitis, and Perforating Folliculitis. Excimer light targets these dermatological problems by focusing on the affected areas with ultraviolet rays.
The common causes behind these skin disorders are:
- A decrease in Melanin pigment, leading to skin discoloration and spots.
- Stress, which significantly contributes to various skin imperfections.
- Medical conditions such as blood pressure issues and obesity, which can exacerbate skin problems.
