Italian term

apopica; solalene

Italian to English Medical Medical (general)
"Si tratta di una terapia topica perchè si fa dentro delle cabine però non ha molto senso perchè bisogna tenere tutto il corpo dentro per le mani e quindi si fa una terapia che si chiama apopica, quindi il solalene sciolto in un liquido in soluzione con le mani esposte in questa soluzione per un certo periodo e poi si espone agli untravioletti A."

Either of the two words would be helpful. Thanks for any suggestions.

i have no idea who transcribed it, but i can tell that the client doesn't understand italian at all. otherwise, he wouldn't have accepted the text in the condition that it's in... :)

Dear Nicole... I'm sorry it's doesn't make any sense your text :( where did it come from? Moreover, 'apopica' could be a typo for 'atopica'. Solalene... I really don't know
Anyway, just to be clear, the text looks like the result of a bad trip... ;)

Selected

atopic; squalene

squalene is a compound found in shark liver oil and used for commercial purposes.
For the other term I think it was a typo and it wanted to say atopica, so atopic.
Good luck with the rest!
