Our board-certified dermatologists will determine the most appropriate therapy based on your condition, skin type, and treatment goals.
Our Light Box Treatment Options
BLU-U® Light Therapy
BLU-U is a blue light photodynamic therapy commonly used to treat moderate acne and precancerous lesions (actinic keratoses). The blue light targets acne-causing bacteria on the skin’s surface and within the oil glands, helping to reduce breakouts and inflammation. It is painless, safe for most skin types, and requires no downtime. BLU-U may also be combined with a photosensitizing agent for the treatment of actinic keratoses under physician supervision.
Effective For:
- Mild to moderate acne
- Actinic keratoses (when used with Levulan)
- Oily, acne-prone skin
XTRAC® Excimer Laser Therapy
XTRAC is a highly targeted form of narrowband UVB therapy that uses a concentrated beam of light to treat psoriasis, vitiligo, and eczema without affecting surrounding healthy skin. This laser delivers higher-intensity light directly to the affected areas, which allows for quicker results and fewer treatments compared to traditional phototherapy.
Effective For:
- Psoriasis
- Vitiligo
- Atopic dermatitis/eczema
- Localized plaques or patches
Narrowband UVB Phototherapy
This full-body treatment uses a specific wavelength of ultraviolet B light to slow the growth of abnormal skin cells. It is one of the most effective treatments for widespread psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo, particularly when topical medications are insufficient. Treatment is performed in our on-site phototherapy booth under the care of our experienced team.
Effective For:
- Widespread plaque psoriasis
- Vitiligo
- Eczema
- Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma
