Vitiligo is a long-term skin problem that occurs as a direct result of lack of melanin.
Due to vitiligo, patches – generally white or pale white in colour – appear on the affected areas of the skin.

Patients with vitiligo continuously lose melanocytes, which results in the appearance of these white areas.
People from any age bracket can be affected by this non-contagious skin disorder.
For effective vitiligo treatment, professional dermatological help is generally prescribed.

The Best Vitiligo Treatment
In Bangalore

At Dr. Tina’s Skin Solutionz, we offer a wide range of effective vitiligo treatment solutions. The treatment procedures are recommended on the basis of the precise skin condition and severity of the vitiligo problem.
Topical therapy for vitiligo

Topical Therapy

Corticosteroid ointments, Tacrolimus, or Pimecrolimus
can be applied topically to treat vitiligo. These topical
medications enhance melanocyte activity and regulate the
immunological response against them.

ultra violet therapy for vitiligo

Ultraviolet Therapy

Vitiligo is generally treated with the help of ultraviolet light therapy. This form of therapy helps in re-pigmentation. As a result, the size of the white patches gets reduced.

Surgical Therapy

Surgical therapies - like tissue and cell grafting - are also performed to treat vitiligo. These surgical options, however, work best for patients with stable vitiligo (i.e. patients that have no new lesions or no further aggravation of the condition over 1-2 years) and suffer either from segmental or focal vitiligo.

Cosmetic Camouflage

Vitiligo lesions or white patches can be covered using camouflage/cover up treatment. This is a temporary solution that conceals the white patches with a shade that is closest to the original colour of the skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

People who have vitiligo might keep worrying if it is inherited or brought on by the surroundings. There is evidence that it might have a hereditary component. Between 25% to 50% of people with vitiligo also have a relative with the condition.
Vitiligo is generally caused by lack of melanin pigment in the skin. Melanin is produced by our skin cells, called melanocytes which gives our skin its colour. Patients with vitiligo do not have enough functioning melanocytes in their body and keep losing them over time, which results in the formation of white patches on the skin. Vitiligo is an autoimmune disorder, which means it is non-contagious.
Early symptoms of vitiligo include a pale patch of skin which usually appears on the hands and face. This patch of skin then gradually turns completely white. Other symptoms are premature graying of hair on your scalp, eyelashes, beard or eyebrows.
Light therapy using narrow band ultraviolet B (UVB) has demonstrated to have reduced or slow down the growth of active vitiligo. When combined with tacrolimus or corticosteroids, it might be more effective. Treatments are required two to three times a week.
Vitiligo can be treated surgically using a variety of techniques like tissue and cell grafting, with the end result being total repigmentation that cosmetically matches the surrounding normal skin. The choice of surgical therapy relies on the severity of the vitiligo, the areas involved, the technology that is available, and the surgeon’s level of skill. However, these treatments work well for patients with stable vitiligo.
