August marks Psoriasis Awareness Month, a moment to increase consciousness and support for those living with this chronic skin condition. Psoriasis affects over 125 million people globally1, characterized by red, flaky patches of skin that can be both painful and emotionally challenging.
What is Psoriasis?
Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that speeds up the life cycle of skin cells, causing them to build up rapidly on the surface of the skin. These extra skin cells form scales and red patches that are often itchy and sometimes painful.
A wide range of treatments are available for psoriasis but identifying the most effective one can be difficult. Always look for a specialised practitioner to understand what the best approach for each case is.
LED Phototherapy: A Proven Treatment for Psoriasis2
LED Phototherapy, or light therapy, is a well-established treatment. This method slows down the rapid growth of skin cells and can significantly reduce symptoms.
One of the leading advancements in phototherapy is the use of LED light, which is safer and more controlled than traditional UV light. As a non-invasive treatment option, this kind of treatment can be used alone or together with complementary indications, depending on each case. Dermalux LED devices are at the forefront of this technology, offering a range of benefits for psoriasis sufferers.
Dermalux: A Breakthrough in LED Light Therapy
Dermalux devices utilise clinically-proven wavelengths of light to treat psoriasis effectively:
- Blue Light (415nm): Targets bacteria, reducing inflammation and preventing infection.
- Red Light (633nm): Promotes healing by increasing collagen production and reducing inflammation.
- Near Infrared Light (830nm): Penetrates deeper into the skin, reducing pain and accelerating the healing process.
These wavelengths can be used individually or combined for a more comprehensive treatment approach, providing a non-invasive, pain-free solution with minimal side effects.
