Vitiligo Treatment at Byzance

  • Restores lost skin color
  • Stops the patches and spots from getting bigger and new spots from appearing

There is no one best treatment for vitiligo. Before creating a treatment plan, we think about what is best for each patient while considering your age, overall health, and effects the disease has on your life. The type of vitiligo, where it appears on the body, and how it’s progressing also play important roles.

Undergoing Vitiligo Treatment?

Keeping these points in mind is important:

  • Treatment works slowly so patience is extremely important. When treatment works, your natural skin color returns a little at a time.
  • Certain types of vitiligo are stubborn and more resistant to treatment. We prefer to begin with the gentlest treatment that’s suitable for you. As per your response we may add another treatment or change your treatment or step up the current treatment.
  • Disease can be controlled and colour can be restored but flares can happen. While researchers are looking for a cure, remission is possible but complete cure is not.
  • Treatment can help restore lost skin color, but disease can precipitate with physical or mental stress.
  • Stress management and lifestyle changes play an extremely important role.

Medical & surgical management of Vitiligo includes:

  • Oral prescription medicines are often prescribed to help control the immune response responsible for attacking the melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) in the skin. These may include corticosteroids, immunomodulators, or other medications that help to regulate the immune system.
  • Topical prescription lotions and creams are also commonly used to treat vitiligo. These may include corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, or other medications that help to promote the growth of new melanocytes in the affected areas.
  • Phototherapy involves exposing the affected skin to UV light, either through natural sunlight or through a specialized light therapy device. This can help to stimulate the production of melanin in the skin and reduce the appearance of vitiligo.
  • Microneedling is a newer treatment option that involves using a device with tiny needles to create small punctures in the skin. This can help to stimulate the production of new melanocytes and improve the appearance of vitiligo.
  • Dermabrasion involves using a specialized tool to remove the outer layer of skin in the affected areas. This can help to promote the growth of new skin cells and improve the appearance of vitiligo.
  • Finally, vitiligo surgeries may be an option for patients with particularly stubborn or severe cases of the condition. These may include procedures like skin grafting, blister grafting, or tattooing to help restore pigmentation to the affected areas.

Overall, the management of vitiligo requires a multifaceted approach that may involve a combination of medical and surgical interventions, as well as ongoing management and monitoring. With the right treatment plan, however, it is possible for many patients to achieve significant improvement in the appearance of their skin and enjoy a better quality of life.
