Phototherapy and photochemotherapy (PUVA therapy) have revolutionized the treatment of many photodermatoses and can offer photosensitive patients an improved quality of life. This is especially the case for polymorphic light eruption, chronic actinic dermatitis, erythropoietic protoporphyria and solar urticaria.
