Psoriasis Treatment

XTRAC Excimer Laser

With the XTRAC Excimer Laser, treatment is fast, effective and targeted right to the spot of the problem without unnecessarily treating the surrounding healthy skin. Some of the benefits include:

  • The XTRAC Laser delivers a carefully focused beam of light only on the psoriasis affected area without exposing healthy skin to UVB rays, unlike conventional phototherapy which exposes the
    whole body to ultraviolet light.
  • The XTRAC Laser can be used successfully on hard to treat areas such as elbows, knees, and scalp, as well as other areas requiring treatment.
  • The XTRAC Laser has none of the drawbacks often associated with other psoriasis treatments—such as premature aging of healthy skin, skin thinning or resistance to medication.
  • XTRAC Laser treatments are convenient— no messy creams!
  • XTRAC Laser treatments enable patients to enjoy fast, safe, convenient, effective relief from the unsightly and troublesome symptoms of psoriasis.
  • XTRAC Laser treatments deliver results in just a few, quick, easy sessions.

trained health care professional will point the XTRAC hand piece over the affected area(s) and expose the lesions to the laser light. Depending on the size of the affected area, this takes only a few minutes and
requires no anesthesia.
