About Vitiligo:
A skin condition that is not a threat to your physical health but can have a big impact on your emotional wellbeing.
What is Vitiligo? What are its symptoms and cause?
The skin consists of cells called melanocytes that are responsible for the production of pigment. When they die or stop producing pigment, the skin develops light patches. Vitiligo is a skin condition in which your own immune system attacks the melanocytes. It may be triggered by Chemical exposure, sunburn, or stress.
Patches usually appear first on areas exposed to the sun – face, lips, hands, arms, and feet. The patches can progress to insides of the nose and mouth, genitals and other parts of the body. Some patients may experience premature whitening of hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, and facial hair. Vitiligo can also affect the coloured portion (retina) of the eyes.
What do we do?
If you start seeing a loss of colouring in skin, hair, or eyes, it is important to schedule a visit to the dermatologist. At Microskin, we are associated with India’s leading dermatologists who provide you with the best treatment. Post a thorough diagnosis, we cater you with the vitiligo creams and makeup that befit your needs.
