Phototherapy

Healing light

Phototherapy is one of the treatments for psoriasis: an intensive protocol with narrow-band UVB rays which, in synergy with thermal baths, helps to reduce inflammation and rebalance the skin's immune response.

Specialist dermatological therapy

A targeted treatment for psoriasis

At the Terme di Comano, a balneophototherapy program is available, indicated for the treatment of psoriasis, particularly in its mild and moderate forms.Narrowband UVB (NB-UVB) phototherapy is one of the most commonly used therapeutic options in dermatology: it helps to modulate the proliferation of skin cells and reduce inflammation and itching.

In Comano, this treatment is supplemented with Comano Thermal Water, known for its hydrating and soothing properties. The combination of the two approaches allows for a combined protocol that can promote better treatment tolerability and support the improvement of the clinical picture.Each course of treatment is defined individually, following a specialist evaluation, to ensure therapeutic appropriateness and safety.

Frequency and duration

The frequency and duration of the phototherapy cycle are determined by the specialist after the initial medical examination. Generally, phototherapy is integrated into a continuous spa treatment plan lasting 8–12 days, to achieve progressive and lasting improvement of skin lesions.

Benefits

Reduced skin inflammation: UVB rays help control inflammatory processes. Plaque improvement: Promotes the regression of redness, thickening, and scaling of the skin. Immunomodulatory action: Strengthens the skin's immune response, reducing the frequency of flare-ups.

Water

At Terme di Comano, phototherapy is carried out in close integration with thermal baths. The thermal water, thanks to its soothing, anti-inflammatory, and regenerative properties, prepares the skin for exposure to UVB rays, enhancing its therapeutic efficacy and improving the tolerability of the treatment.

Method

Phototherapy is carried out immediately after the thermal bath, when the skin is still wet and retains the mineral salts from the thermal water. This method allows for amplifying the therapeutic effects of UVB rays compared to application on dry skin.
