PUVA

PUVA (Psoralen and UVA) therapy is a type of phototherapy used to treat severe, recalcitrant skin diseases. It combines a topical or oral psoralen medication with UVA light exposure to modulate the changes in skin. Psoralen helps to increase the effectiveness of the light and is often used to treat issues such as severe psoriasis, vitiligo, and other hybrid skin diseases. The combination treatment has been shown to be an effective, reliable, and safe option for long-term treatment of recalcitrant skin conditions.
