Levia consists of a console, which includes a calibration port and a touch screen control panel, and an ergonomic Handpiece, about the size of a hair dryer, which houses the proprietary Levia UVB light engine. Two interchangeable beam delivery attachments - Levia® LiteBrush™ and Levia® LiteSpot™ - fit into the Handpiece to deliver targeted phototherapy precisely to the affected areas of the scalp and skin respectively.
Psoriasis remains a chronic, incurable disease, but for many sufferers it can now be managed into remission with Levia.
