Vitiligo Treatment and Expert care at Dr Skin
Vitiligo is a chronic skin condition characterized by the loss of pigment in patches on the skin, resulting in lighter areas that can appear anywhere on the body. It is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system mistakenly attacks the melanocytes, the cells responsible for skin color. This condition can significantly affect a person’s appearance and self-esteem, often leading to emotional and psychological challenges.
Understanding the causes, symptoms, and treatment options is crucial for managing this lifelong condition effectively. Awareness and early intervention can help individuals cope better and find the right management strategies.
