Zerigo - Model B (NB-UVB) - Narrowband Ultraviolet Light System
Narrowband Ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) light, which is present in natural sunlight, penetrates the skin and slows the growth of affected skin cells for psoriasis. According to the National Psoriasis Foundation several studies indicate that NB-UVB light clears psoriasis faster and produce longer remissions than broadband UVB. It also may be effective with fewer treatments per week than broadband UVB. NB-UVB light is also a safe and effective treatment that stimulates melanocytes and helps repigment the skin. That's why it's considered the gold standard for the treatment of vitiligo.

- Have mild to moderate psoriasis. You can treat 40 2'X2' squares (approximately the area of two sheets of paper).
- Are willing to consult with your doctor every 3-6 months. Based on your progress, your doctor may want to adjust the regimen accordingly.
- Want to repigment your skin and prevent new spots from forming. The face and torso respond exceptionally well. Bonier areas such as hands, feet and knees require longer treatment cycles.

Benefits
Effective. Narrowband UVB light is a safe and effective treatment. While individual results will vary, you should expect to begin seeing results as quickly as two weeks for psoriasis and four weeks for vitiligo.
Smart. Zerigo’s smartphone-controlled light therapy device delivers the precise dosing prescribed by your physician at the touch of a button.
Connected. Through the Zerigo Mobile App, you are always connected to your Zerigo CarePartner to help coach and support you through your treatment journey.
Targeted. Treatments are directed only to affected areas, protecting healthy skin from unnecessary light exposure.
Flexible. Combining NB-UVB therapy with topical and systemic therapies has been shown to improve efficacy.
Affordable. Home phototherapy is more cost-effective than many oral medications used to treat auto-immune skin disorders. It's also less expensive than clinic or office-based phototherapy
Zerigo Health Solution Results
Phototherapy has been used for years to treat auto-immune skin diseases. New advances have brought this option into the forefront of treatment choices, used alone or in combination with biologics and topicals.
Now there’s a new and effective treatment for psoriasis, vitiligo and other photo-responsive skin conditions. The Zerigo Health Solution is a new spin on a well-proven treatment. See our results for yourself!
The results photographed below have not been retouched in any way. Combination therapy results are noted with an asterisk.
When skin affected by vitiligo starts to re-pigment, many people will see freckling. This is a good indicator that the light therapy is starting to take effect by stimulating the melanocytes to produce melanin.
What doctors are saying...
'Used alone or in combination with other medication, the Zerigo Health Solution helps heal the skin and reduce the discomfort associated with psoriasis.'
“The novel delivery system supports the ability to deliver home phototherapy for chronic skin diseases, in a user-friendly, effective method that should allow high adherence and compliance leading to positive patient outcomes.”
'Love how the App tells me when it’s time to treat!'
'No more lotion needed when my son is itchy – Zerigo Health has healed his red, itchy plaques.'
Michelle (Patient's Mother)
Though results vary for each individual, consistency is important to achieve results. This patient has been using Zerigo Health to treat vitiligo and was 93 percent adherent to the treatment regimen, meaning that out of the 27 opportunities to treat, the patient completed 25 of the treatments.
While individual results will always vary, our patients are excited about the changes they are seeing on their skin.
“The improvement that we have seen in such a short time is very encouraging, especially since our dermatologist said that it could take several months to begin seeing any improvement at all.”

Advice from Other Users
'The thing I would like to tell people is to just be patient and be consistent with the treatment. It’s like the Zerigo Health CarePartner told us when we had our initial onboarding call: “It’s going to take a while before seeing any major results.”
- Mindy (Patient's Mother)
Committed to Clearer Skin
'Love the Zerigo system! I had bad psoriasis all around my mouth that developed after pregnancy. I tried every cream, prescription and nonprescription, out there. The Zerigo light was my last ditch effort. I began noticing results within 6 weeks...and it completely healed around the 3 month mark. I can finally leave my house embarrassment free and make-up free again!'
- Amy (Current Zerigo Health Patient)
A look at our Clinical Study
Eight patients with stable plaque psoriasis (PSI score > 7) completed a 10-week monotherapy study with the Zerigo Health Solution. At the first endpoint, two patients achieved total clearance; one patient achieved early clearance at 4 weeks. All patients showed improvement with an average PSI reduction of 58%.
100% of study participants achieved clearance within two weeks when topical corticosteroids were combined with Zerigo Health Solution after the ten week monotherapy regimen was completed.
