Treatment for Vitiligo

Depending on the severity of the condition, the treatment method may vary. Treatment methods include:

Avoidance of tanning. For fair-skinned individuals, avoiding tanning of normal skin can make the areas of vitiligo almost unnoticeable.

Use a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30.

Use a cosmetic cover-up solution. Make-up, self-tanning compounds with dihydroxyacetone, and dyes (such as Covermark, Walnut Stain, Vita Dye or Dermablend) help temporarily conceal the white patches of vitiligo.

Repigmentation. The restoration of the normal pigment and can be achieved with repigmentation therapy or corticosteroids. To get repigmentation, new pigment cells must be produced from existing ones, such as ones found at the base of hair follicles, from the edge of the patch or from the patch itself if depigmentation is not complete.

In repigmentation therapy, a patient is given a psoralen drug (orally) and then is exposed to ultraviolet light A (UV-A) in the doctor's office. This therapy is called PUVA. When psoralen drugs are activated by UV-A, they stimulate repigmentation by increasing the availability of color-producing cells at the skin's surface. Psoralen is also available in a topical form that can be applied to the body for patients with small, scattered patches. Topical corticosteroids (such as Temovate or Psorcon) are prescribed for patients with small patches of vitiligo.

Depigmentation is the destruction of the remaining melanocytes. Patients with vitiligo over half of their exposed body may want to consider using this method. A bleaching chemical called monobenzylether of hydroquinone (Benzoquin) is applied to normally pigmented skin. Treatment may take up to one year.
