Advanced Blue Light Therapy for Sun Damage & Precancerous Skin Lesions
Blue light therapy, also known as photodynamic therapy (PDT), is a non-invasive treatment used to target sun-damaged skin and precancerous lesions. It selectively destroys abnormal cells while preserving healthy surrounding tissue, improving both skin health and appearance.
Dr. Amin Esfahani, MD, Board-Certified Dermatologist, and the team at Central Valley Skin Specialists provide safe and precise removal of cysts and skin growths for patients throughout the Central Valley.
Treatment Options
Topical Photosensitizing Medication A light-sensitive medication is applied to affected skin, allowing it to target abnormal cells for treatment.
Blue Light Activation The treated area is exposed to a specific wavelength of light, activating the medication and destroying damaged cells.
Field Treatment Approach PDT is especially effective for treating large areas of sun-damaged skin and multiple precancerous lesions at once.
Cosmetic Skin Improvement In addition to medical benefits, PDT can improve skin tone, texture, and overall appearance.
Post-Treatment Care Patients may experience temporary redness or sensitivity, followed by gradual improvement as the skin heals and regenerates.
