What is Vitiligo?

Vitiligo is a chronic autoimmune skin disorder in which the immune system destroys melanocytes — the cells responsible for producing skin pigment (melanin). This results in white or light-colored patches on the skin.

Pediatric Vitiligo: Gentle, Safe Care for Kids

Vitiligo in Children

Seeing white patches on your child can be worrying, but children often have the best response to treatment because their pigment system is active and resilient.

Our Child-Safe Protocol:

We avoid harsh systemic steroids for young children. Instead, we focus on:

Important Points

Treatment of Vitiligo

1. Medicine Treatment

Vitiligo treatment depends on the extent, duration, age, and activity of the disease. The goal is to stop progression and restore pigmentation.
Common Medicines Used in Vitiligo 

2. Topical Steroid Creams 

Used in early or limited vitiligo to reduce autoimmune activity and help repigmentation.

Best for:

  • Small patches
  • Recent vitiligo

Avoid long-term unsupervised use because of skin
thinning and stretch marks.

3. Calcineurin Inhibitors

Useful for face, eyelids, lips, and children.
Safer for sensitive areas
No skin thinning

4. Oral Medicines

Used mainly in rapidly spreading vitiligo.
Examples:
Oral mini-pulse steroids
Antioxidants and vitamin support

5. Newer Targeted Treatment

JAK Inhibitor tablets and Cream
Can help repigmentation in selected patients, especially
facial vitiligo.

Supportive Supplements

Some dermatologists may recommend:

  • Vitamin B12
  • Folic acid
  • Vitamin D
  • Antioxidants

These are supportive, not standalone cures.

2. Phototherapy

Excimer lamp therapy

Hand held UVB light

Table top NB UVB light

Hand and foot UVB light

Full body chamber UVB light

Most effective standard treatment for generalized vitiligo.
Sometimes combined with:
Psoralen in PUVA therapy

Important Advice

  • Early treatment gives better results.
  • Face and neck respond better than hands and feet.
  • Combination therapy (medicine + phototherapy) often works best.
  • Avoid self-medication with strong steroid creams.

You should consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation before starting treatment.

SURGERIES IN VITILIGO

Surgical treatment is considered for stable vitiligo, especially when medicines and phototherapy are not giving satisfactory repigmentation. Stability usually means no new patches and no increase in size for 6–12 months.

Common Surgical Option

1. Punch Grafting

Small pieces of normal pigmented skin are taken and
transplanted into vitiligo patches.

Best for:

● Small stable patches
● Lips, fingertips, localized vitiligo

Advantages:

● Simple and cost-effective
● Good pigmentation in selected patients 

Limitations:

● Cobblestone appearance may occur
● Color mismatch possible

2. Suction Blister Grafting

Blisters are created on normal skin using suction, and the
thin epidermal layer is transferred to depigmented areas.

Best for:

● Lips
● Eyelids
● Small facial lesions

Advantages:

● Excellent cosmetic results
● Minimal scarring

Limitations:

● Time-consuming procedure
● Suitable only for smaller areas

3. Split Thickness Skin Grafting (STSG)

A thin layer of pigmented skin is transplanted onto
dermabraded vitiligo patches.

Best for:

● Larger stable patches

Advantages:

● Faster pigmentation
● Useful for resistant lesions

Limitations:

● Risk of scarring
● Requires surgical expertise

4. Melanocyte Transfer / Cell Suspension Technique

Melanocytes and keratinocytes are separated from normal
skin and applied over prepared vitiligo patches.

Best for:

● Stable vitiligo
● Larger areas

Advantages:

● Covers large surface area
● Excellent cosmetic outcome

Limitations:

● Expensive
● Requires specialized setup

Important Points Before Surgery

● Vitiligo should be stable.
● Active spreading vitiligo is not suitable for surgery.
● Phototherapy after surgery improves results.
● Proper patient selection is very important.

Areas with Better Results

● Face
● Neck
● Trunk

Areas with Poorer Results

● Hands
● Feet
● Joints
● Lips in some patients

Success Rate

Repigmentation can range from 60–95% depending on:
● Type of surgery
● Site of lesion
● Stability of disease
● Post-operative care
Surgical treatment should be performed by an experienced or trained dermatologic surgeon after proper evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ

Vitiligo is treatable and controllable. While "cure" is a strong word, many patients achieve near-total repigmentation and remain disease-free for years with proper maintenance.

There is no scientific evidence that sour foods (citrus/curd) or fish/milk combinations cause vitiligo. We recommend a balanced diet rich in antioxidants.

Yes. Excimer and NB-UVB utilize specific wavelengths of light that are therapeutic, not damaging. They do not increase the risk of skin cancer.

No. Surgery is only successful if your vitiligo is stable (not spreading). If the disease is active, the graft may fail. We must stabilize you medically first.

It can run in families, but the risk of passing it to your children is relatively low (less than 10%).
