Vitiligo is a chronic skin condition characterized by the loss of pigmentation, resulting in white patches on the skin. This occurs when melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing melanin (the pigment that gives skin, hair, and eyes their color), are destroyed or stop functioning. The condition can affect any part of the body, including the face, hands, arms, and even the inside of the mouth or eyes. While the exact cause of vitiligo is not fully understood, it is believed to be an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy melanocytes. Vitiligo is not contagious or life-threatening, but it can have significant psychological and social impacts due to its visible nature.
Vitiligo happens when the cells that produce skin color, called melanocytes, stop working or are destroyed. This might be due to an overactive immune system attacking the cells, genetic factors, or certain triggers like stress, sunburn, or exposure to harmful chemicals. The exact cause is still not fully understood.
* White patches on the skin, often starting on the face, hands, or feet.
* Premature graying or whitening of hair, eyebrows, or eyelashes.
* Loss of color in the tissues inside the mouth or nose.
* Changes in the color of the retina (inside the eye) in rare cases.
* The patches may gradually spread over time.
Commonly around the eyes, mouth, or nose.
Often on the fingers, toes, and palms.
Patches may appear on the elbows, knees, and forearms.
Loss of pigmentation in the private areas.
May cause premature graying or whitening of hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, and beard.

Vitiligo is classified into different types based on how and where the white patches appear on the body. The main types include:
* Generalized Vitiligo: This is the most common type, where white patches are scattered across the body, often symmetrically.
* Segmental Vitiligo: Patches appear on one side of the body or in a localized area, usually starting at a young age and progressing for a few years before stabilizing.
* Focal Vitiligo: A rare form where small patches appear in a confined area and do not spread widely.
* Acrofacial Vitiligo: Affects the skin on the face and extremities, such as hands, feet, fingers, and toes.
* Mucosal Vitiligo: Affects the mucous membranes, such as the inside of the mouth and nose.
* Universal Vitiligo: A very rare type where nearly all of the skin loses its pigmentation, covering most of the body.
* Trichrome Vitiligo: Patches appear in three different shades—normal skin, lighter skin, and completely white skin—creating a gradient effect.
Although there is no definitive cure for vitiligo, various vitiligo treatments available in Jaipur at our clinic can help restore skin color, slow its progression, or improve the appearance of affected areas. The choice of treatment depends on the extent of the condition, its progression, and individual preferences. Here are some common treatment options:
Corticosteroid creams and immune-modulating ointments like tacrolimus or pimecrolimus may help restore pigment in small patches by reducing inflammation and encouraging melanocyte activity.
Narrowband UVB light therapy is a popular treatment to stimulate pigment production. This therapy requires multiple sessions and is effective for generalized vitiligo.
This treatment uses a concentrated beam of UVB light, targeting small areas of depigmentation. It is often used for localized vitiligo.
For individuals with extensive vitiligo, depigmentation therapy can lighten the remaining skin to match the white patches, creating an even skin tone.
In this surgical procedure, healthy, pigmented skin is transplanted onto depigmented areas. It is typically used for stable, non-progressive vitiligo.
This advanced surgical technique involves transplanting melanocyte cells into depigmented areas to restore pigmentation.
