Anyone have any dealings with this:

My P responds well to the sun + I thought that this might help along with vit D3 in the winter.
Works out at £70 so is a lot cheaper that some of the ones I seen advertised on ebay.
I've spend quite a bit on "miracle" cures and am a bit weary about this in case it turns out to be rubbish as usual

my uvb is too severe to use a hand held lamp.....wish I had had that we revelation before I parted with the money to buy one.....if you only have a few patches I suppose its worth a go but for me its too time consuming and difficult......

hi, GTI

we all diff peps with diff types p and  skin type

for some light treatment can make it worse IE photosensitive p

are you seeing  a derm some let you take hand units home for self treatment

? you could  try a high st tanning saloon,  or hire 1 and  see if it helps you,   some do uvb

the url  is a bit confusing it states UVS lies between uva-uvb
then it put all its claims down to uvb, which are not  very clear
they claim it improves quality of life ?

just had a quick search and cant find any clinical evedence for this uvs= light spectrum

if you have a wide coverage small hand held units are  not really worth it


ps
 have/use a 18 tube nb-uvb under/over sunbed
