The XTRAC is a laser device that uses ultraviolet light to treat skin conditions like psoriasis, vitiligo, and atopic dermatitis (eczema):

Treatment areas
The XTRAC can be used on any area of the body without harming healthy skin.
Insurance coverage
The XTRAC is covered by most major insurance carriers, including Medicare and Medicaid.
