“…Psoralen plus ultraviolet A light phototherapy or UVA1 therapy is considered the first-line treatment for maculopapular skin lesions in adults. 48 Autoimmune bullous diseases Key points d Autoimmune bullous diseases are subepidermal blistering diseases, but may present solely with urticarial lesions in the early phases d Skin lesions often have a symmetrical distribution, with predominant initial involvement of the trunk or flexor surfaces of the extremities d Histology and antibody testing in serum and/or the skin are needed to confirm diagnosis Subepidermal autoimmune bullous diseases, including bullous pemphigoid, gestational pemphigoid, linear IgA dermatosis, and epidermolysis bullosa acquisita are diseases caused by the presence of autoantibodies directed against different basement membrane components, leading to the formation of a subepidermal blister. [49][50][51][52][53][54] These diseases are predominantly seen in adults or the elderly.…”

Long-wavelength UVA1 radiation has been used successfully and with good tolerability in a variety of inflammatory and neoplastic skin diseases (9,11,18). During the last three decades, UVA1 phototherapy has emerged as a specific phototherapeutic modality with distinct modes of action and some well established indications.…”
