Vitiligo Treatment in Ahmedabad

Expert Skin Pigmentation Care at ADORN Aesthetic Clinic

Vitiligo is a long-term skin condition that causes white or depigmented patches on the skin due to the loss of melanocytes (pigment-producing cells). At ADORN Aesthetic Clinic, Ahmedabad, we offer comprehensive, customized vitiligo treatment using medical therapy, phototherapy, surgical options, and laser technology to help restore pigmentation and prevent further progression.

Our dermatologists provide evidence-based treatment plans tailored to the extent, type, and cause of vitiligo — while also addressing the emotional and psychological impact this condition can have. Whether you have early spots or widespread involvement, we offer safe and effective care in a compassionate setting.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Vitiligo

1. What causes vitiligo?

Vitiligo occurs when the immune system attacks pigment cells. It’s often linked to autoimmune conditions, genetic factors, or oxidative stress.

2. Is vitiligo contagious or infectious?

No. Vitiligo is not contagious. It cannot be spread through touch, food, or contact.

3. Can vitiligo be treated permanently?

While not completely curable, early and stable vitiligo can be managed effectively with topical, light, or surgical treatments.

4. How effective is phototherapy for vitiligo?

NB-UVB phototherapy is highly effective, especially for face, neck, and trunk areas. Visible results begin after 8–12 sessions.

5. Can children get treated for vitiligo?

Yes. Topical treatments and excimer laser are safe and commonly used in children with vitiligo.

6. What is stable vitiligo?

Stable vitiligo refers to patches that haven’t changed in size or number for at least 6–12 months — important for planning surgical options.

7. Are there foods that worsen vitiligo?

No proven dietary triggers exist, but a healthy, antioxidant-rich diet may help support treatment.

8. Can stress trigger vitiligo?

Yes. Stress and emotional trauma are recognized triggers for flare-ups or onset of vitiligo in some individuals.

9. Is makeup or camouflage safe for vitiligo patches?

Yes. Medical-grade camouflage products are non-irritating and safe to cover patches temporarily.

10. Can laser treatments help with vitiligo?

Yes, excimer laser is especially effective for small, stubborn patches and offers precise repigmentation.

11. What areas respond best to treatment?

Face, neck, and upper trunk respond best. Hands, feet, and bony areas are more resistant but still treatable.

12. How long does it take to see results?

With consistent treatment, early improvement is seen in 4–6 weeks. Full response may take 3–6 months or more.

13. Is vitiligo linked to thyroid disease?

Yes. Patients with vitiligo may also have thyroid disorders, diabetes, or other autoimmune conditions — screening may be advised.
