The KN-4003BL2 is a handheld narrow-band UVB phototherapy device that emits 311 nm light for at-home treatment of skin conditions such as vitiligo and psoriasis. It is designed to deliver targeted, controlled UVB exposures in a portable format.
Narrow-band UVB at ~311 nm reduces inflammation, modulates immune responses in the skin, and can stimulate repigmentation in vitiligo or reduce scaling and thickening in psoriasis. Treatment protocols vary, so consult a dermatologist for a personalized plan.
This device is intended for adjunctive at-home phototherapy for conditions such as vitiligo and psoriasis and for general skin health support. Use should be based on a dermatologist's recommendation and specific treatment plan.
The KN-4003BL2 is designed for home use and is classified as an Instrument Class II device. However, correct use, eye protection, and following treatment protocols are essential. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and seek guidance from a healthcare professional before starting therapy.
Treatment frequency and duration depend on individual factors and a clinician's protocol. Common schedules range from several times per week with short exposure times that are gradually increased. Do not exceed recommended doses; consult your treating dermatologist for a tailored regimen.
Some units include an optional timer function to help control session length. If your model includes the timer, use it to ensure consistent, safe exposures. If unsure, refer to the user manual or contact online technical support.
Wear appropriate eye protection, avoid exposing unaffected areas unnecessarily, do not use on sunburned or inflamed skin, follow prescribed dosages, and stop use and consult a physician if you experience severe erythema, blistering, or other adverse reactions.
Individuals with a history of photosensitivity disorders, active skin cancer, porphyria, or those taking photosensitizing medications should avoid use unless cleared by a physician. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult their healthcare provider before use.
Pediatric use should only be undertaken under direct medical supervision. Dose adjustments and careful monitoring are required for children; consult a pediatric dermatologist before using the device on minors.
Common side effects include mild redness, dryness, or itching of treated skin. Rarely, more severe effects such as blistering or burns can occur from overexposure. Long-term UV exposure may increase skin aging and carcinogenic risk; follow medical guidance to minimize risks.
