		<description><![CDATA[PUVA is an acronym that stands for “Psoralen + UV-A Light.”  Psoralen makes the skin more sensitive to UV-A light, or more able to absorb this particular light wavelength, which has the effect of beating back psoriasis.

		<description><![CDATA[Ultraviolet rays are invisible, but are natural part of the sunlight that hits the earth all the time.  There are three kinds of UV rays &#8212; A, B and C &#8212; but UV-C (the shortest wavelength) never makes it through the atmosphere.
