Vitiligo Treatment – Restore Skin Confidence with Expert Care

At Dermacure Skin Clinic, we specialise in treating Vitiligo, a skin condition that causes white patches due to the loss of skin pigment (melanin). While vitiligo is not harmful or contagious, it can affect self-esteem and social confidence. With years of experience and advanced medical technology, our dermatologists offer safe, customised treatments to control progression, restore pigmentation, and improve skin appearance.

We use a multi-approach strategy including medical therapy, phototherapy, surgical grafting, and excimer laser treatment, tailored to each patient’s condition. Our goal is not only to restore pigment but also to support patients with compassionate care, empowering them to live confidently.

Treatment Options at Dermacure

    • Exposes skin to controlled light waves that stimulate melanocyte activity

    • Effective for widespread vitiligo

    3. Excimer Laser

    • Targets localised patches with high precision

    • Suitable for face, neck, and small body areas

    4. Surgical Grafting (for stable vitiligo)

    • Punch grafting, split-thickness grafting, or melanocyte transfer

    • Helps repopulate pigment in resistant areas

    5. Cosmetic Camouflage

    • Medical-grade concealers for temporary coverage when needed

Pre-Care

  • Protect skin from sunburn before treatment

  • Maintain healthy lifestyle & manage stress (as it can trigger vitiligo flare-ups)

After-Care

  • Use broad-spectrum sunscreen daily

  • Avoid harsh chemical products on treated areas

  • Follow-up regularly with dermatologist for progress tracking

  • Stay consistent – results take time and multiple sessions

FAQs

1. Is vitiligo curable?
Currently, there is no permanent cure, but treatments can restore pigment, control progression, and significantly improve appearance.

2. Which treatment works best?
It depends on the type, location, and stability of vitiligo. Early-stage vitiligo often responds to medical therapy, while resistant or stable patches may need laser or surgical grafting.

3. Is treatment painful?
Most treatments like creams, phototherapy, and excimer laser are painless. Surgical grafting involves local anaesthesia and minimal discomfort.

4. How long will it take to see results?
Repigmentation may start after a few weeks of treatment, but visible improvement generally takes 3–6 months of consistent sessions.

5. Is it safe for Indian skin?
Yes. Dermacure’s treatment protocols are designed for Indian skin tones and performed under expert supervision.
