Vitiligo Treatment

Restoring Skin Confidence, One Step at a Time

Vitiligo is a skin condition where patches lose their natural color due to a lack of pigment. While not harmful to health, it can affect confidence and self-esteem. With advanced therapies, we help patients manage vitiligo effectively and restore skin harmony.

What is Vitiligo?

Vitiligo occurs when melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) stop functioning. This leads to white patches on the skin, often on the face, hands, or other exposed areas.

Causes May Include:

  • Autoimmune factors
  • Genetic predisposition
  • Environmental triggers

Why Seek Treatment?

  • To restore skin pigmentation
  • To prevent progression of patches
  • To improve self-confidence and reduce social stigma

Treatment Options

  • Medical Therapy: Creams, oral medications, and phototherapy (UV light) stimulate pigmentation
  • Surgical Options: Skin grafting or melanocyte transplantation for resistant patches
  • Camouflage Techniques: Cosmetic cover-ups to mask depigmentation
  • Supportive Care: Counseling to address emotional well-being

Results You Can Expect:

  • Gradual repigmentation of affected areas
  • Slowing or halting of disease spread
  • Improved skin appearance and self-confidence

Who Should Avoid Certain Treatments?

  • Pregnant women (some medications not recommended)
  • Patients with uncontrolled autoimmune diseases
  • Those with active skin infections

FAQs

Q1: Is vitiligo contagious?

No. Vitiligo is not infectious and cannot spread from person to person.

Q2: Can vitiligo be completely cured?

There is no permanent cure, but treatments can control the condition and restore pigmentation significantly.

Q3: How long before I see results?

With consistent therapy, improvement is usually visible within 3–6 months.
