MED-UV
Targeted treatment supports
skin improvement
MED-UV
Conventional UVB treatments expose large skin areas and require many sessions for visible results. MED-UV enables targeted, powerful 308 nm treatment, reducing time and unnecessary UV exposure.
Based on the Excimer Pulsed Light (EPL) technology it combines the advantages of an excimer laser with the inexpensive price of excimer lamps in a in a compact, hand-held format.
- Targeted treatments
- Faster results
- Lower cumulative dose
- Affordable price
Focus Indications
Real Skin Transformation, No Exaggeration
Psoriasis
Psoriasis is one of the most widespread autoimmune-mediated inflammatory diseases. The disease is hereditary and usually occurs chronically or in recurrent phases. The main symptom is the excessive production of skin cells, resulting in the typical raised, reddened plaques.
Treatment of the inflamed areas with UV-B light can lead to a normalization of the formation rate of skin cells and an improvement of plaque formation.
Results may vary from person to person. The pictures shown depict the results for a single patient and are not representative of all treatments.
Vitiligo
Vitiligo is a chronic skin disease that manifests as light, non-pigmented skin patches. For reasons that are largely unknown, the pigment-forming cells (Melanocytes) of the skin and hair are destroyed, causing the production of the pigment Melanin to dry up.
Phototherapy is usually used to treat Vitiligo. The affected skin areas are treated with UV-B light, which is designed to stimulate the reproduction and growth of melanocytes. This can contribute to the re-pigmentation of the affected areas.
Results may vary from person to person. The pictures shown depict the results for a single patient and are not representative of all treatments.
Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is an inflammatory autoimmune disorder that causes the immune system to erroneously attack the body‘s own hair follicles. It leads to sudden, round or oval patches of hair loss on the head or body. Possible causes can include genetic predisposition as well as external factors.
UV-B light therapy can have an anti-inflammatory effect and can suppress the immune response that causes the hair loss.
Results may vary from person to person. The pictures shown depict the results for a single patient and are not representative of all treatments.
POWERFUL AND FAST UVB TREATMENT OPTIONS IN A FORMAT THAT FITS ON YOUR DESK
To ensure that MED-UV is perfectly tailored to your treatment preferences, it is available in two different applicator variants. The classic UVB EPL 308 nm with excimer technology and the LED-based UVB EPL lite 308 nm.

EPL TECHNOLOGY
The best of two worlds
Based on GME‘s in-house Excimer Pulsed Light (EPL) technology, MED-UV uses the same emission spectrum as an excimer laser: monochromatic 308 nm UVB light.
This wavelengthIt falls within the UV-B range, thereby hitting the sweet spot for safe and effective treatments of psoriasis and vitiligo.
Thanks to its affordable lamp-like price, MED-UV lets you have the best of two worlds – with no need to compromise on either price or performance.
