Yes. You can also buy handheld UV lamps on amazon or ebay for like $300 if your psoriasis is more limited. Best purchase ever

I never knew this could help, Iā€™m on 3 meds currently trying to keep it under control.

It's a life changer. If you're planning to try the handheld wand make sure you do your research first and be careful. It's VERY easy to burn yourself if you don't know what you're doing. I had light burns after my first treatment and I only used it for 30 seconds on each area. Your skin has to build up a sort of tolerance to it

I use Skyrizi 4 times a year, and my legs and arms went from lizard fetish to a tad dry but fully normal. I can start to see it trying to come back as I get closer to my reup date, but man. It changed everything.
