Light Therapy for Eczema and Psoriasis

LED light therapy as support for eczema and psoriasis. Reduces itching and inflammation. Scientific evidence. Panacea.

Eczema (atopic dermatitis) and psoriasis are chronic skin conditions that significantly impact daily life. While UV light therapy remains the gold standard for severe cases, research increasingly shows evidence for the supportive role of LED light.

Evidence for eczema

A study in 81 patients with atopic dermatitis showed that red light therapy effectively reduced itching in 63 patients and improved rashes in 57 cases. A 2024 study confirmed that red light can temper the inflammatory process by modulating pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Evidence for psoriasis

In psoriasis, blue light inhibits the excessive proliferation of keratinocytes, the skin cells that divide too quickly. Red LED light penetrates up to 6 mm deep, stimulates mitochondrial activity, and modulates cytokines to reduce inflammation. A systematic review in Photodermatology (2023) confirms significant results.

Honest advice

LED light therapy does not replace medical treatment for severe eczema or psoriasis. However, it can be a valuable supplement: a daily home treatment with minimal side effects. Always consult your dermatologist.
