Overview:
UV-irradiated cabins are widely used for phototherapy in dermatological clinics and therapy centers. Ultraviolet light is deployed in phototherapy to treat certain skin disorders like atopic eczema, psoriasis, vitiligo, itching, polymorphic light eruption, pityriasis, lichenoides, and other types of dermatitis. According to the World Psoriasis Day consortium, approximately 125 million people worldwide suffer from psoriasis; such a high prevalence indicates the importance of phototherapy in dermatitis treatment. For phototherapy, UV irradiation is delivered in an enclosed cabin containing UV light bulbs, which ensure extensively and even therapy for the body. To achieve effective results, patients are exposed for a longer period of time or multiple shorter periods of time. The type of UV light (UV A or UV B) exposed to a patient is dependent on the extent of the skin condition; the full body is exposed to light except for the eyes.
The growing prevalence of skin disorders is driving the UV irradiation cabin market. Recent advancements in technologies in UV irradiation cabins with a real-time dosimeter, an integrated timer, and a space-saving portable design support the demand for UV irradiation cabins. This market is also expected to expand as this device is user-friendly, easy to handle, and cost-effective. In addition, these products are in demand among dermatologists due to their ease of operation, lesser risk, effective clinical outcomes, and increasing rate of patient satisfaction. The inclusion of current technologies in UV irradiation cabins, such as talking units to deliver better patient guidance during the procedure, additional cabin detectors to identify changes in irradiation and subsequent compensation, and complete data management features regarding the patients, is anticipated to boost the UV irradiation cabins market in the coming years.
North America is expected to dominate the global market due to its well-organized healthcare infrastructure and increasing public awareness. As stated by the International Federation of Psoriasis Associations (IFPA), 150,000 new cases of psoriasis are diagnosed each year in the United States. Growing geriatric populations, the rising prevalence of chronic skin disorders, and the increasing economic burden associated with skin disease all increase the demand for UV irradiation cabins in North America. The market in Europe is estimated to experience high growth due to the presence of major manufacturers. Asia-Pacific is predicted to witness significant growth due to emerging economies and slowly growing public awareness regarding health.
