Many of them left me feedback and you can ask them. The brown color in the skin is a result of a specific ultraviolet light that the sun gives. The UVB Narrowband lamp generated this wavelength and exposure to it cures Vitiligo. You need to use the lamp one time every day day in every area. The exposure should start from 1/2 minute. Every day you need to increase the exposure time by 1/2 minute until you reach the time that makes your skin a bit pink, and stay at that time. The correct time is 1-5 minutes, depending on on your skin. In Vitiligo After few weeks you will see small brown dots. Few weeks later they will increase their diameter until they will fill the whole spot. The cure is faster on the face and neck than on other areas. In Psoriasis it will take 2-3 weeks to cure. The FDA approval for this lamp (PLS9W/01) for Vitiligo and Psoriasis: http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/pdf2/k021092.pdf Narrow-band ultraviolet B is a useful and well-tolerated treatment for vitiligo. Patients with Vitiligo for 1 year achieved 75% re-pigmentation after 20 treatments. Patients with Vitiligo for 10 year achieved 45% re-pigmentation after 50 treatments. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=11369913&dopt=Abstract We report our experience with UVB narrowband therapy in children affected by vitiligo. 80% had a satisfactory response to phototherapy. Some areas responded better than others did; the best results were shown on the face and neck. UVB NB therapy is a valuable and safe option for the treatment of pediatric vitiligo, and should be started as soon as possible. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=pubmed&dopt=Abstract&list_uids=15916579&query_hl=11&itool=pubmed_docsum A UVB photo-therapy clinic in Canada: http://www.dermweb.com/skincare/psoriasis/ The exposure area is 8" X 8"  ,20 X 20 centimeters. The lamp has an automatic shut-off timer of 1-5 minutes. The unit has one bulb Philips Narrowband PLS9W/01 aproved by the FDA and in use in many clinics. I sell also stronger lamps that can treat larger area. The lamp will have a specific plug and voltage according to the buyer country without a need to use an adapter ot a transformer. It is not allowed to use a transformer. Articles about UVB from my site: http://www.uvclinic.co.il/English/Articles.aspx?CID=1 One year warranty is included, including bulb replacement. The bulb lasts many years, after one year the bulb replacement is 100$ including shipment back. The power at a distance of 4", 10 centimeters is 0.0015 Watt per square centimeter, or 0.1 Joules per minute. This is medical grade and not a cheap uvb lamp for reptiles that gives much less UVB light, that is not sufficient for therapy. Shipping is with express with insurance. Place a Bid!
