Abstract |
The effects of ultraviolet radiation on human skin have been studied for years, and both its harmful and therapeutic effects are well known. Exposure to UV light can lead to sunburn, immunosuppression, skin aging, and carcinogenesis, and photoprotection is strongly advocated. However, when used under controlled conditions, UV radiation can also be helpful in the diagnosis and treatment of many skin conditions. |
