FAQs
Common Questions
Everything patients typically want to know before treatment, answered by our clinical team.
There is currently no permanent cure for vitiligo. However, with the right combination of treatments, significant repigmentation is possible. Many patients achieve excellent cosmetic improvement. Dr. Shruti will give you an honest assessment of what's achievable for your specific case.
Vitiligo is primarily an autoimmune condition where the body's immune system attacks melanocytes (pigment-producing cells). Genetic factors play a role -- about 30% of cases run in families. Triggers can include stress, sunburn, skin trauma, or chemical exposure, though the exact cause varies from person to person.
No, absolutely not. Vitiligo is not contagious in any way. You cannot catch it from touching someone with vitiligo or through any form of contact. It is an autoimmune condition, not an infection.
Treatment options include narrowband UVB phototherapy, topical immunomodulators (tacrolimus, pimecrolimus), topical corticosteroids, oral medications for spreading vitiligo, and surgical skin grafting for stable patches. Dr. Shruti typically recommends a combination approach tailored to your vitiligo type and extent.
With phototherapy, early signs of repigmentation may appear in 4-8 weeks, with progressive improvement over several months. Skin grafting results become visible in 3-6 months. Vitiligo treatment requires patience -- consistent sessions over months are typically needed for meaningful results.
Results vary significantly by individual, vitiligo type, location, and extent. Some patients achieve near-complete repigmentation, while others see partial improvement. Facial vitiligo generally responds better to treatment than patches on hands and feet. Dr. Shruti will give you realistic expectations based on your specific case.
Skin grafting is considered for patients with stable vitiligo (no new patches or spreading for at least 1-2 years) where medical treatments haven't achieved satisfactory results. It involves transplanting melanocytes from pigmented skin to depigmented areas. Dr. Shruti will assess whether you're a suitable candidate.
Narrowband UVB (NB-UVB) phototherapy uses a specific wavelength of ultraviolet light to stimulate dormant melanocytes to produce pigment again. Sessions take 10-20 minutes and are typically done 2-3 times per week. It is one of the most effective and well-studied treatments for vitiligo.
While no specific diet has been proven to cause or cure vitiligo, maintaining a healthy diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins (especially B12, folic acid, and vitamin D), and minerals may support overall skin health. Dr. Shruti can advise on any relevant dietary considerations during your consultation.
Genetic factors play a role -- about 30% of vitiligo cases have a family history. However, having a family member with vitiligo doesn't guarantee you'll develop it. It's a complex condition influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors.
Yes, vitiligo can spread over time, though the pattern and rate of spreading varies widely. Some people experience rapid progression, while others remain stable for years. Early treatment may help slow or stop the spread. This is why timely consultation with a dermatologist is important.
Stress doesn't directly cause vitiligo, but it can be a triggering or worsening factor in people who are predisposed. Emotional stress may trigger the immune response that attacks melanocytes. Managing stress through lifestyle changes can be a supportive part of your overall treatment plan.
Yes, vitiligo in children can be treated. Treatment options for children typically include topical immunomodulators and phototherapy. Skin grafting is generally reserved for older children and adults with stable vitiligo. Dr. Shruti will recommend age-appropriate, safe treatment options.
Costs vary depending on the type and extent of vitiligo, chosen treatment modalities, and duration of treatment. Phototherapy sessions, topical medications, and surgical grafting each have different cost structures. WhatsApp us with details about your case and we'll provide a transparent cost breakdown.
Recent advances include JAK inhibitors (topical ruxolitinib), targeted phototherapy, melanocyte transplantation techniques, and combination protocols that improve outcomes. Dr. Shruti stays current with the latest research and will discuss which newer options may be suitable for your case.
