Photodynamic therapy is a modern, noninvasive treatment and diagnostic method used in dermatology for non - melanoma skincancer care. PDT is based on photodynamic reaction. It involves the activation of a photosensitizing drug by red light to producereactive oxygen species within target cells, resulting in their destruction. Recurrence rates are typically equivalent to other noninvasive(imiquimod, ingenol mebutate) and invasive (cryotherapy) therapies.

Keywords: photodynamic therapy, photosensitizer, red light, non-melanoma skin cancer
