Vitiligo is a skin condition characterized by the loss of pigment, leading to white patches on the skin. It occurs due to the destruction or dysfunction of melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing skin pigment.
These patches can appear on the face, hands, arms, or other parts of the body and may vary in size and distribution. Vitiligo is not contagious or harmful, but it can have a significant impact on appearance and confidence. With appropriate dermatological care, the condition can be managed, and repigmentation can be achieved in many cases.
The immune system may mistakenly attack pigment-producing cells.
Emotional stress may act as a trigger or aggravating factor in some individuals.
A family history may increase the likelihood of developing vitiligo.
Vitiligo linked with autoimmune diseases like hypothyroidism
Oxidative imbalance may contribute to pigment-producing cell damage
Skin trauma like cuts, burns, or friction can trigger patches
