This may lead to disruption of the skin barrier function. We examined the acute effect of PDT and short\u2010wave ultraviolet radiation (UVB) on the barrier function of the epidermis. Furthermore, we explored the effect on the skin barrier of topical corticosteroid previous to UVB exposure.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods: <\/jats:bold> Eight patients with acne vulgaris of the face were treated with PDT two times, and eight patients were left untreated. The transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was measured before treatment and at three control visits after PDT over 12 weeks. Twenty healthy volunteers were irradiated with UVB in two areas on the back. One area was treated with topical high\u2010potency corticosteroid before irradiation. TEWL was measured before, 15\u2003min and 24\u2003h after UVB exposure.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results: <\/jats:bold> TEWL did not differ significantly between the various visits in each acne group and no significant difference in the TEWL between PDT\u2010treated patients and the control group was found at any visit (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&gt;0.05). TEWL was not significantly altered 15\u2003min and 24\u2003h after a single exposure to UVB and no positive relationship was found between UV\u2010induced erythema and change in TEWL (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&gt;0.05).
