VITILIGO
What is Vitiligo??
Vitiligo is a long-term skin condition characterized by patches of the skin losing their pigment. The patches of skin affected become white and usually have sharp margins. The hair from the skin may also become white. The inside of the mouth and nose may also be involved. Typically both sides of the body are affected. Often the patches begin on areas of skin that are exposed to the sun. It is more noticeable in people with dark skin.
Almost 1 percent of the world’s population has vitiligo, in some populations it affects as many as 2-3%. When you have vitiligo, the cells that are responsible for your skin color are destroyed. These cells, called melanocytes, no longer produce skin pigment, called melanin. Once the cells no longer produce melanin, areas of your skin will lose color or turn white.
Areas of lost pigment can develop anywhere on your body, including:
· sun-exposed areas like the hands, feet, arms, and face
· inside the mouth or other mucus membranes
· nostrils
· ge****ls
· back of the eye
· within the hearing system of the ear
Your hair may also turn grey or white if the areas involved have hair.
Even though vitiligo can affect many different parts of the body, it’s not contagious. A person with vitiligo can’t transmit it to someone else.
The choice of treatment depends on your age, how much skin is involved and where, how quickly the disease is progressing, and how it's affecting your life.
Medications and light-based therapies are available to help restore skin color or even out skin tone, though results vary and are unpredictable. And some treatments have serious side effects. So your doctor might suggest that you first try changing the appearance of your skin by applying a self-tanning product or makeup.
If you and your doctor decide to treat your condition with a drug, surgery or therapy, the process may take many months to judge its effectiveness. And you may have to try more than one approach or a combination of approaches before you find the treatment that works best for you.
Even if treatment is successful for a while, the results may not last or new patches may appear. Your doctor might recommend a medication applied to the skin as maintenance therapy to help prevent relapse.
No drug can stop the process of vitiligo — the loss of pigment cells (melanocytes). But some drugs, used alone, in combination with light therapy, can help restore some skin tone.
If light therapy and medications haven't worked, some people with stable disease may be candidates for surgery.
