How it works

During your initial consultation, our specialists will assess your condition and discuss the best treatment plan for you.

Each session typically lasts a short duration, and the number of sessions required will be determined based on your individual response to treatment.

Technology

At Paramed, we utilize advanced phototherapy technology that employs a specialized light source to target affected skin areas. This technology works by emitting specific wavelengths of light that penetrate the skin, helping to reduce the rapid growth of skin cells associated with psoriasis. The mechanism involves the modulation of the immune response and the reduction of inflammation, which is crucial for effective treatment in the elbow region where psoriasis can be particularly stubborn. Safety is a top priority, and our equipment is designed to minimize any potential risks while maximizing therapeutic benefits. Our trained professionals ensure that each session is tailored to your specific needs, providing a safe and effective treatment experience.

Phototherapy is a non-invasive treatment option for psoriasis that offers several advantages over traditional therapies such as systemic medications or topical treatments.
