What this page covers

Vitiligo is a skin condition characterized by the loss of pigment, resulting in white patches on various parts of the body.

At Dr. Divya's Skin Clinic, we offer medically sound, evidence-based treatments to stabilize pigment loss and support repigmentation. Early dermatologist consultation is highly recommended to improve treatment outcomes.

Vitiligo is an autoimmune condition where the body's immune system attacks pigment-producing cells (melanocytes). Treatment aims to stop active progression and stimulate pigment cells from hair follicles or surrounding skin.

Clinical evaluation involves identifying the type of vitiligo (segmental or non-segmental) and assessing if the condition is active or stable. Treatment depends on patch location, size, and activity of the condition.

  • Stable patches that do not respond to medical therapy may require surgical considerations in later stages.

I visited for a skin infection, and she was incredibly thorough in diagnosing and treating the issue. Thanks to her guidance, the infection cleared up completely. She's knowledgeable, approachable, and highly recommended.

She listened to my skin problems so patiently and her medication really worked for me within few days. Even reduced fees for me as a college student. I would suggest her all the time!

FAQs

What is the best age to start vitiligo treatment?

Vitiligo can be treated at any age. Early medical intervention, particularly within the first 1 to 2 years of active spread, yields better repigmentation results. Dermatologist assessment is the best first step regardless of age.

How long does it take to see results?

Pigment response is slow. Initial signs of repigmentation (usually as small brown spots within the white patch) may take 2 to 4 months of consistent medical therapy. Patience and adherence to the plan are crucial.
