Do tanning beds help improve psoriasis?
In general, tanning beds are not considered as effective as UVB phototherapy that is administered in your doctor’s office. However, it can serve as a good alternative for those who have difficulty getting to their doctor frequently or have no health coverage. Use common sense when trying light treatment. Gradually increase exposure time to help avoid burning. If you experience intense itching following a light treatment, try decreasing your exposure time and using a good moisturizer.
