Within the field of dermatology, advances in the use of light emitting diodes (LEDs) have led to their clinical application for a variety of medical and cosmetic uses. Of note, one phototherapy device has demonstrated beneficial effects over a range of clinical applications (Omnilux™; GlobalMed Technologies, Glen Ellen, California). The study included a literature review of published studies. Using LEDs with frequencies of 415nm (blue), 633nm (red), and 830nm (infrared), this device has demonstrated significant results for the treatment of medical conditions, including mild-to-moderate acne vulgaris, wound healing, psoriasis, squamous cell carcinoma in situ (Bowen's disease), basal cell carcinoma, actinic keratosis, and cosmetic applications. Although photodynamic therapy with the photosensitizer 5-aminolevulinic acid might cause stinging and burning, phototherapy is free of adverse events. We determined that phototherapy using LEDs is beneficial for a range of medical and aesthetic conditions encountered in the dermatology practice. This treatment displays an excellent safety profile.
在皮肤科领域,发光二极管(LED)应用方面的进展已使其在多种医疗和美容用途中得到临床应用。值得注意的是,一种光疗设备在一系列临床应用中已显示出有益效果(Omnilux™;全球医疗技术公司,加利福尼亚州格伦埃伦)。该研究包括对已发表研究的文献综述。使用频率为415nm(蓝光)、633nm(红光)和830nm(红外光)的LED,该设备在治疗多种病症方面已显示出显著效果,包括轻度至中度寻常痤疮、伤口愈合、银屑病、原位鳞状细胞癌(鲍温病)、基底细胞癌、光化性角化病以及美容应用。虽然使用光敏剂5-氨基酮戊酸的光动力疗法可能会引起刺痛和灼痛,但光疗没有不良事件。我们确定,使用LED进行光疗对皮肤科实践中遇到的一系列医疗和美学病症有益。这种治疗显示出极佳的安全性。
