What is Photodynamic Treatment?


What is Photodynamic Treatment?

Photodynamic Treatment(pdt) is a non-invasive medical treatment that combines a photosensitizing drug with light exposure to target abnormal cells, widely used in treating skin conditions, cancers, and infections. In PDT, a drug called a photosensitizer accumulates in abnormal cells and is activated by specific light wavelengths, resulting in a chemical reaction that destroys targeted cells.

How Does Photodynamic Treatment Work?

PDT is performed in stages:

  1. Application of Photosensitizer: A photosensitizing agent, like aminolevulinic acid, is applied to the treatment area, where it absorbs into abnormal cells.
  2. Incubation Period: The drug is left to penetrate the cells, with incubation lasting from one to several hours.
  3. Light Exposure: The treated area is exposed to light (commonly blue or red LEDs), activating the drug and producing a reaction that selectively destroys abnormal cells.

Benefits and Uses of Photodynamic Therapy

PDT is effective in treating conditions such as:

  • Actinic Keratosis: Precancerous skin lesions caused by sun damage.
  • Certain Cancers: Non-melanoma skin cancers, esophageal cancer, and others.
  • Acne and Skin Infections: PDT can reduce acne-causing bacteria and inflammation, and also treat bacterial, viral, and fungal infections.

Key Advantages of PDT

  • Precision: Targets only abnormal cells, sparing healthy tissue.
  • Minimal Downtime: Recovery is often within days to weeks.
  • Repeatable: It’s safe for repeated treatments, beneficial for chronic conditions.

Potential Side Effects

Common side effects include redness, swelling, peeling, and heightened photosensitivity post-treatment. Patients should avoid sunlight for 48 hours and use protective clothing and sunscreen thereafter to minimize discomfort.
