LaseRx, Institute of Laser Medicine now brings to you XTRAC™ laser phototherapy system
(www.photomedex.com) - a revolutionary and long-term treatment for psoriasis. XTRAC helps treat psoriatic skin lesions quickly and effectively without exposing healthy skin to potentially harmful ultraviolet rays. Most treatments last only a few minutes, and relief can often last for many months.
While phototherapy is a well-established and widely used treatment for psoriasis, it generally exposes the entire body to radiation, which puts even healthy tissues at risk. In comparison, the laser concentrates the UVB light, through a unique fibre optic system, at the affected patch alleviating harm to healthy tissues. Although a number of wavelengths have been shown to effectively treat psoriasis, the peak of this action spectrum is 308 nm. XTRAC specifically directs this wavelength at the affected area producing amazing results.
Conventional phototherapy may require more than 30 sessions before improvement. But XTRAC's unique fibre optic delivery system delivers higher dosages to the affected tissue only, thus resulting in rapid clearing in fewer sessions. Many people experience marked improvement in as few as 4-10 treatments with the
XTRAC excimer laser. Thus, XTRAC is not only time effective but cost effective as well.
