The Healing Power of Light
Absolutely not. This light only affects the skin and converts the bilirubin in the blood into a simpler substance that can be excreted through urine and feces. Only the baby's eyes are protected from the light with a special band; apart from that, it is a completely safe, painless, and life-saving (brain damage preventing) method.
In diseases such as psoriasis and vitiligo, the immune system mistakenly attacks skin cells, causing them to multiply at an abnormal rate. Medical light therapy applied in special ultraviolet (UV) cabins slows down this abnormal cell growth, stopping inflammation and scaling on the skin.
