Phototherapy for Neonatal Jaundice – Advanced & Safe Care in Faridabad

Neonatal jaundice is a common condition seen in newborn babies, especially during the first week of life. It occurs when there is an excess of bilirubin in the baby’s blood, leading to yellowing of the skin and eyes. While mild jaundice often resolves on its own, high bilirubin levels can be dangerous if not treated on time. That’s why timely diagnosis and expert care are extremely important.

Under the expert supervision of Dr. Supriya Rastogi, parents receive the most reliable and advanced treatment for neonatal jaundice. Recognized as one of the most trusted specialists in the region, Dr. Rastogi is widely regarded as the best neonatologist for jaundice in Faridabad, offering evidence-based and compassionate newborn care.

What is Phototherapy?

Phototherapy is a safe and highly effective treatment used to lower high bilirubin levels in newborns. During the procedure, the baby is placed under special blue spectrum lights that help break down bilirubin in the skin. This allows the baby’s body to eliminate bilirubin naturally through urine and stool.

Phototherapy is painless, non-invasive, and carefully monitored by neonatal experts to ensure complete safety. At our center, we use advanced LED phototherapy units that provide optimal light intensity for faster and safer recovery.


When Does a Baby Need Phototherapy?

Not every baby with jaundice requires treatment. However, phototherapy is recommended when:

  • Bilirubin levels rise beyond safe limits

  • The baby is premature

  • Jaundice appears within the first 24 hours of life

  • Bilirubin levels are increasing rapidly

  • The baby shows signs of lethargy or poor feeding

Early evaluation and continuous monitoring are essential to prevent complications such as kernicterus, a rare but serious condition caused by extremely high bilirubin levels.
