Photodynamic Therapy

The largest organ in the human body, skin is a sturdy defense that also is amazingly delicate. Skin regularly takes a beating from harsh sunlight, and when not properly protected, can develop lesions that are precancerous or cancerous. While skin cancer occurs more than any other cancer, it’s also highly treatable, especially when caught early on. One option is the Blu-u treatment for precancerous actinic keratosis that utilizes photodynamic therapy with a topical formulation called Levulan.

Photodynamic therapy can also be effective treatment for acne. It is a safe alternative to avoid the significant side effects of using Accutane.
