Philips NB-UVB 311nm Phototherapy Device

Clinically proven narrowband UVB light therapy at the precise 311nm wavelength — the gold standard for treating vitiligo, psoriasis, and other skin conditions. This Philips medical-grade device delivers targeted phototherapy safely and effectively in the comfort of your home.

✨ Why 311nm NB-UVB?

Narrowband UVB at 311nm is the most effective and safest UV wavelength for stimulating repigmentation in vitiligo. It activates melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) in depigmented skin areas without the harmful effects of broadband UV, making it the preferred choice recommended by dermatologists worldwide. VT1 lotion is the only patented treatment that can work with this specific 311nm UVB, unlike other drug enhance phototherapy that works only with UVA, VT Treatment works with excitation wl for both UAB and UVA.

📋 How to Use — Gradual Exposure Protocol

Important: Always consult your dermatologist before starting phototherapy. The following is a general guideline for gradual exposure. Individual skin type and sensitivity will determine your starting dose.

Week Sessions per Week Exposure Time (per session)
Week 1 3 30 seconds
Week 2 3 45 seconds
Week 3 3 1 minute
Week 4 3 1 min 15 sec
Week 5+ 3 Increase by 15 sec each week as tolerated

Step-by-step instructions:

  1. Clean and dry the area to be treated — remove any creams or sunscreen.
  2. Protect eyes with UV-blocking goggles. Cover healthy pigmented skin and sensitive areas (lips, genitals) if not being treated.
  3. Position the device 5–10 cm from the skin surface using the tabletop, stand, or clip.
  4. Switch on the device and expose the affected area for the recommended time.
  5. After treatment, apply a gentle moisturiser to soothe the skin.
  6. If redness or mild sunburn occurs, skip the next session and reduce exposure time by 15 seconds going forward.
  7. Track your sessions and progress — repigmentation typically begins after 4–8 weeks of consistent treatment.
