Phototherapy is provided by machines that resemble tanning beds or that can be smaller devices for hands or feet, but they emit a specific wavelength of ultraviolet light that treats psoriasis effectively without exposing patients to the cancer-causing wavelengths that are found in commercial tanning beds. Phototherapy is often used in combination with pills and biologic therapies for psoriasis (12% of patients were taking these medications during the LITE study).
