NBUVB (Narrow-Band Utraviolet Light B) light therapy treatment involves exposing the skin to a special kind of ultraviolet light. NBUVB is currently the most successful treatment for patients with vitiligo. It’s also been shown to be helpful for many patients with psoriasis, eczema, and other conditions.

HOW NBUVB WORKS

UVB is in natural sunlight in small amounts. It can also be made artificially by lamps that put out narrow-band UVB light for therapeutic benefits. Treatment involves safely exposing the skin to narrow-band UVB light from the specialized lamps at Dermatology Specialists of Spokane’s clinic.
