How many times should I use the Brightwand?

After starting phototherapy, how often should I follow up with my dermatologist?
Follow up every 12 months or sooner if the skin condition worsens.

Can medications affect phototherapy treatment?
Yes. Some medications, including antibiotics, diuretics, and antifungals, have shown to make the skin more sensitive to light. Check with your dermatologist before starting therapy.

What happens when my skin condition clears up?
Regular therapy 2-3 times a week wont be necessary after the skin condition improves. Take a break or reduce to a less frequent time schedule. If treatment is necessary after a break, start over from the original time duration to build up to a longer treatment time.
