After 48 sessions, a significantly lower VASI score and a higher grade of repigmentation were observed in 308\u2010nm excimer light\u2013treated side (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a0.001). Nine lesions (25%) treated with 308\u2010nm excimer light and only five lesions (13.89%) treated with 311\u2010nm NB\u2010UVB achieved excellent repigmentation. The 308\u2010nm excimer light and 311\u2010nm NB\u2010UVB\u2013treated sides rapidly obtained 25% repigmentation within a mean of 19.42 sessions and 26.25 sessions, respectively (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a0.002). There was no significant difference in mean cumulative UV dosage (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a0.065).
