Vitiligo

“It’s a lie if someone said he’s not bothered by the white patch” – former patient

“I can feel my blood pressure under control again when it’s gone” – former patient

Vitiligo is a distinct white patch of skin that can appear at any part of the body. It is harmless but often disrupt the mental calmness of the patient due to social stigmatization or for fear of brewing illness internally. Vitiligo is the result of localized melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) destruction. The reason behind is still largely unknown but it may be considered as an autoimmune condition whereby the immune system is attacking the melanocytes. It is treatable with topical, oral or light-based therapy. Don’t build walls around you. Build bridges so you can find solutions and happiness. We are bridge builders too.
