  • When you type into Google: “Vitiligo Treatments”, what are you really asking? Are you asking for a list of vitiligo treatments so you can figure out which route to take? Or are you looking for information on the many different treatment options or methods out there? Are you just looking for information on this mysterious skin condition? Whatever the case, you have come to the right article. Whatever your intentions with this phrase, I can’t give you ALL of the answers here. But what I can do is list for you some of the best treatments that might be able to work for you. You ready? Then let’s go!
    1. UVB therapy – UVB stands for Ultra-Violet B-band therapy. Basically what happens is those areas on your body that are affected by vitiligo are exposed to ultra-violet light from the B band spectrum. This treatment has recently replaced the UVA treatment(Ultra-violet A), because of the UVA’s well documented problems with high cancer rates, nausea and other problems. UVB therapy is better tolerated amongst those that receive the treatment.
    2. Melanocyte Transplantation – Before you start scratching your head and wonder if I made that word up. Yes melanocyte is a word. Melanocyte is the layer of skin that researchers think is the core of the problem. This layer of the skin is what dies or either stops working. Thus vitiligo is born! With this treatment you receive a transplant from the unaffected region of your body to the affected region…and your body does the rest!
    3. Depigmentation – This treatment is just what it sounds like and perhaps it’s the treatment that the late, great King of Pop Michael Jackson took. You completely depigment the rest of your skin to match the patches that are already affected by the vitiligo.

    I can understand why someone that has vitiligo would ask this question. There are so many different treatments for this condition, that I can really see a person getting confused as to which route to take. Thankfully this is not a decision to be taken lightly, and this is not a decision that you should try to reach on your own. As with every medical decision, a licensed physician that is an expert in this particular field should be consulted. Vitiligo is a serious skin condition that affects millions of people WORLDWIDE. So a decision of this magnitude should have your best interests at heart.
    Your Dr. should tell you what I’m about to tell you. No one treatment will work for everyone. And even if you find a treatment that does work for you, there is a risk that the vitiligo will return. But the even better news is that the above treatments have had the BEST rates of satisfaction among everyone who received them.
    The best vitiligo treatments will not work for everyone. If one doesn’t work, try, try again! Also, this is not a complete list of all the vitiligo treatments out there. There’s one missing!
