Unyango lokukhanya okubomvukunye nokutshiswa kwe-UV ziindlela ezimbini ezahlukeneyo zonyango ezinemiphumo eyahlukileyo kulusu.
Unyango lokukhanya okubomvuisebenzisa uluhlu oluthile lwamaza okukhanya angengo-UV, aqhele ukuba phakathi kwama-600 nama-900 nm, ukungena eluswini kwaye kuvuselele iinkqubo zemvelo zokuphiliswa komzimba.Isibane esibomvuinceda ekwandiseni ukuhamba kwegazi, ukuveliswa kwe-collagen, kunye nokujikeleza kweeseli, okukhokelela ekuphuculeni ubume besikhumba, ithoni, kunye nempilo iyonke. Unyango lokukhanya okubomvu luthathwa njengonyango olukhuselekileyo nolungangenisi ntsholongwane olungalimaziyo ulusu, kwaye luhlala lusetyenziselwa ukunciphisa ukubonakala kwemigca emincinci, imibimbi, amanxeba, kunye ne-acne, kunye nokukhuthaza ukuphiliswa kwamanxeba kunye nokunciphisa iintlungu.
Kwelinye icala, ukutshiswa kwe-UV kusebenzisa ukukhanya kwe-ultraviolet, okuluhlobo lwemitha enokuba yingozi kulusu ngobuninzi obugqithisileyo. Ukuvezwa kwimitha ye-UV kunokonakalisa i-DNA yolusu, okukhokelela ekugugeni kwangethuba, ukuguquka kwebala, kunye nomngcipheko ophezulu womhlaza wolusu. Iibhedi zokutshiswa kwesikhumba ziindawo eziqhelekileyo zokutshiswa kwe-UV, kwaye ukusetyenziswa kwazo kunxulunyaniswe nomngcipheko ophezulu womhlaza wolusu, ngakumbi kubantu abancinci.
Ngamafutshane, ngelixaunyango lokukhanya okubomvukunye nokutshiswa kwe-UV zombini zibandakanya ukuvezwa kancinci eluswini, zinemiphumo kunye neengozi ezahlukeneyo. Unyango lokukhanya okubomvu lunyango olukhuselekileyo nolungangenisi ntsholongwane olunceda ekukhuthazeni impilo yolusu, ngelixa ukutshiswa kwe-UV kunokuba yingozi eluswini kwaye kunxulunyaniswa nomngcipheko owongezelelekileyo wokonakala kolusu kunye nomhlaza.
