Dermatological PDT lighting systems
PDT dermatological lighting is an essential medical device for the implementation of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in dermatology.
It activates photosensitizing agents applied to the skin using controlled, uniform light that is tailored to clinical protocols.
At Surgiris, we develop PDT lighting solutions designed for dermatologists—whether in private practices or specialized centers—to ensure precision, safety, and reproducibility in treatments.
What is PDT dermatological light therapy?
A dermatological PDT light source is a device used in photodynamic therapy to emit light at specific wavelengths.
This light activates a photosensitizer applied to the skin to treat certain skin conditions.
This type of lighting must ensure:
- controlled light output
- perfect uniformity
- long-term stability
- optimal patient safety
Dynamic phototherapy in dermatology
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a technique used in medical and cosmetic dermatology.
It is based on three elements:
- Application of a photosensitizing agent
- Activation by a suitable light source
- Targeted reaction in the treated tissues
Lighting therefore plays a key role in the effectiveness of the treatment.

Key requirements of PDT lighting in dermatology
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is based on precise clinical protocols that require specifically adapted lighting systems. Light characteristics, uniformity, and seamless integration into the clinical environment are essential factors in supporting dermatological practice in PDT treatments.
Lighting systems adapted to photodynamic therapy (PDT)
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is based on the activation of a photosensitizing agent by a specific light source. Dedicated PDT lighting systems support dermatology protocols by delivering light emission precisely adapted to this type of treatment.
These devices are designed to meet the specific clinical requirements of photodynamic therapy (PDT), both in private dermatology practices and specialized medical centers.
Lighting uniformity and control
Light uniformity is a critical factor in the implementation of photodynamic therapy (PDT) sessions. Controlled and consistent illumination contributes to uniform activation of the photosensitizer across the treated area.
Stable light output also helps ensure the reproducibility of treatment sessions while maintaining patient comfort throughout the procedure.
Designed for daily dermatology practice
PDT treatment sessions require equipment that is easy to use and seamlessly integrated into the clinical environment. Lighting ergonomics play a key role in organizing treatment sessions and ensuring smooth, efficient practitioner workflows.
Dermatological PDT lighting solutions are designed to adapt to the daily constraints of dermatology practice without adding complexity to treatment workflows.
