What happens during photodynamic therapy?
Photodynamic therapy includes the use of photosensitizers, which can be administered orally, intravenously, or directly to your skin. The photosensitizing solution concentrates in the harmful, unhealthy cells to make them more sensitive to light. Then, using a specified wavelength of light, your provider illuminates the treatment area to cause a chemical reaction that destroys the targeted cells.
