Vitiligo Treatment Using 308 nm Excimer Laser: A Modern Dermatology Approach
Vitiligo is an autoimmune skin condition characterized by the loss of skin pigmentation due to the destruction of melanocytes. Although it is not contagious or life-threatening, vitiligo can significantly affect a patient’s quality of life. The 308 nm Excimer Laser is considered one of the most advanced targeted treatment options for localized vitiligo. It delivers focused UVB light directly to depigmented areas without exposing surrounding healthy skin. Excimer laser therapy stimulates residual melanocytes within hair follicles and modulates the local immune response, promoting gradual repigmentation—especially in stable and localized vitiligo cases. Pulse Medical provides advanced 308 nm Excimer Laser systems that allow precise control over fluence, spot size, and treatment time, ensuring safe, effective, and customized treatment protocols for dermatology clinics.
