Vitiligo
Vitiligo is a condition in which the skin loses its pigment, resulting in white patches. It can affect any part of the body and may be localized or widespread. The exact cause is unknown, but it is not contagious or life-threatening.
Diagnosis:
A dermatologist will examine the affected areas, sometimes using a special blue light (Wood’s lamp). In some cases, a skin biopsy may be performed to confirm the diagnosis.
Treatment Options Include:
- Topical creams
- Phototherapy
- Laser treatments
