Saalux® UV B-comb (311 nm) - against psoriasis and vitiligo

Saalux UV B-comb, 311 nm

UV B light therapy for psoriasis (psoriasis) and vitiligo (white spot disease).

The Saalux UV comb (UV B comb, 311 nm, also called "light comb") is used for UV irradiation of smaller lesions, especially the scalp, especially the scalp, but also other parts of the body. During the therapy, the diseased areas of the skin are treated in sections. In case of appropriate hair growth, it is necessary to part the hair so that the UV radiation can reach the scalp. The transparent removable cover of the UV radiator has two outer rows of combs for this purpose. These rows of combs also serve as spacers to the skin and should therefore always be used even in hair-free areas. This is the only way to ensure a constant irradiation intensity.

Due to the large irradiation area and high radiation intensity, the Saalux UV comb enables effective therapy. The very low weight and modern design facilitate handling during therapy.

The large, removable cover protects the UV comb incl. the UV lamp from contamination and is extremely easy to clean after therapy.

UV protective goggles are essential for safe use. They absorb the UV radiation, but are well permeable to visible light. The short-time timer features especially large digits and an acoustic signal tone.
