There is limited literature regarding patient preferences for phototherapy. Patients may consider different forms of phototherapy depending on a multitude of factors important to them, including safety, cost, efficacy, insurance issues, and convenience. This study aimed to determine which form of phototherapy-in-office UVB, at-home UVB, home tanning, salon tanning, and sunbathing-was preferred by survey participants and the reasons for their preferences. Additionally, participants were asked which forms of phototherapy they considered safest and most efficacious, cost-effective, and convenient.
